Adsorbate induced surface alloy formation investigated by near ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy

- Pt 4f7/2 core level investigated by near ambient pressure XPS.
- Investigation of three Cu/Pt(1 1 1) structures: an overlayer, a near surface alloy and a surface alloy.
- Surface restructuring achieved using CO pressures of 0.1 mbar and temperature of 673 K.
