Abstract

We illustrate the usefulness of the extended x-ray absorption fine-structure effect for determining the chemical state, structure, and location of adsorbed species by a study of 0.2 monolayers of bromine adsorbed on graphite at room temperature. Bromine adsorbs as molecules with one atom fixed above the basal-plane hexagonal site while the molecular axis is free to flop around.
