Abstract
The formation of PdZnx alloy on Pd(1Â 0Â 0) and its characteristics were investigated by various methods, such as photoelectron, auger-electron, electron energy loss, thermal desorption spectroscopic methods and work-function measurement. The alloy was produced by the decomposition of diethyl zinc on Pd(1Â 0Â 0). The alloy surface reacts with O2 and ZnOx is formed. The reactivity of alloy to hydrogen is similar to that of K/Pd. The stability of adsorbed CO is lower than on clean Pd(1Â 0Â 0).
