Abstract

We present reflectance-anisotropy spectroscopy data for the adsorption of 3-thiophene carboxylic acid on the clean and O(2 x 1)/Cu(110) surfaces, which demonstrates the sensitivity to orientation parallel and perpendicular to the surface. Electronic structure calculations were performed to clarify the bonding and assign RAS transitions. [S0163-1829(98)00739-5].
