The surface phonon dispersion curves of commensurate Xe monolayers on Cu(111) and incommensurate Xe monolayers on Cu(001) surfaces have been measured using He atom scattering (HAS) time of flight (TOF) spectroscopy. The TOF spectra are interpreted by combining quantum scattering calculations with the dynamical matrix description of the surface vibrations. Both a vertically polarized Einstein-like mode and another, acoustic-like mode of dominantly longitudinal character, are identified. The latter mode is characterized by the presence and absence of the zone center frequency gap in the commensurate and incommensurate adlayers, respectively. The microscopic description of the TOF spectral intensities is based on the extensive theoretical studies of the interplay of the phonon dynamics, projectile-surface potentials, multi-quantum interference and projectile recoil, and their effect on the HAS spectra. Both single and multi-quantum spectral features observed over a wide range of He atom incident energies and substrate temperatures are successfully explained by the theory.

We present results of density-functional calculations on the magnetic properties of Cr, Mn, Fe and Co nano-clusters (1 to 9 atoms large) supported on Cu(001) and Cu(111). The inter-atomic exchange coupling is found to depend on competing mechanisms,
namely ferromagnetic double exchange and antiferromagnetic kinetic exchange. Hybridization-induced broadening of the resonances is shown to be important for the coupling strength. The cluster shape is found to weaken the coupling via a mechanism that comprises the different orientation of the atomic d-orbitals and the strength of nearest-neighbour hopping. Especially in Fe clusters, a correlation of binding energy and exchange coupling is also revealed.
We present calculations on energy- and time-resolved two-photon photoemission spectra of images states in Cu(100) and Cu(111) surfaces. The surface is modeled by a 1D effective potential and the states are propagated within a real-space, real-time me
thod. To obtain the energy resolved spectra we employ a geometrical approach based on a subdivision of space into two regions. We treat electronic inelastic effects by taking into account the scattering rates calculated within a GW scheme. To get further insight into the decaying mechanism we have also studied the effect of the variation of the classical Hartree potential during the excitation. This effect turns out to be small.
We report many-body calculations of the self-energy and lifetime of Shockley and image states on the (100) and (111) surfaces of Cu that go beyond the $GW$ approximation of many-body theory. The self-energy is computed in the framework of the GWGamma
approximation by including short-range exchange-correlation (XC) effects both in the screened interaction W (beyond the random-phase approximation) and in the expansion of the self-energy in terms of W (beyond the GW approximation). Exchange-correlation effects are described within time-dependent density-functional theory from the knowledge of an adiabatic nonlocal XC kernel that goes beyond the local-density approximation.
Boron forms compounds with nearly all metals, with notable exception of copper and other group IB and IIB elements. Here, we report an unexpected discovery of ordered copper boride grown epitaxially on Cu(111) under ultrahigh vacuum. Scanning tunneli
ng microscopy experiments combined with ab initio evolutionary structure prediction reveal a remarkably complex structure of 2D-Cu8B14. Strong intra-layer p-d hybridization and a large amount of charge transfer between Cu and B atoms are the key factors for the emergence of copper boride. This makes the discovered material unique and opens up the possibility of synthesizing ordered low-dimensional structures in similar immiscible systems.
Glycine on Cu(001) is used as an example to illustrate the critical role of molecular polarity and finite temperature effect in self-assembly of biomolecules at a metal surface. A unified picture for glycine self-assembly on Cu(001) is derived based
on full polarity compensation considerations, implemented as a generic rule. Temperature plays a non-trivial role: the ground-state structure at 0 K is absent at room temperature, where intermolecular hydrogen bonding overweighs competing molecule-substrate interactions. The unique p(2X4) structure from the rule is proved as the most stable one by ab initio molecular dynamics at room temperature, and its STM images and anisotropic free-electron-like dispersion are in excellent agreement with experiments. Moreover, the rich self-assembling patterns including the heterochiral and homochiral phases, and their interrelationships are entirely governed by the same mechanism.
