Adsorbate aggregation and relaxation of low-frequency vibrations
M. V. Pykhtin, Andrew M. Rappe, Steven P. Lewis
We present a study of resonant vibrational coupling between adsorbates and an elastic substrate at low macroscopic coverages. In the first part of the paper we consider the situati…

Continuum Elastic Theory of Adsorbate Vibrational Relaxation
Steven P. Lewis, M. V. Pykhtin, E. J. Mele +1
An analytical theory is presented for the damping of low-frequency adsorbate vibrations via resonant coupling to the substrate phonons. The system is treated classically, with the…
