Revisiting Atomic Collisions Physics with highly charged ions, A tribute to Michel Barat
Philippe Roncin
Michel Barat passed away in November 2018 at the age of 80 after a rich career in atomic and molecular collisions. He had participated actively in formalizing to the electron promo…
Quantum regime for the nuclear energy loss of fast atoms above crystal surfaces
Philippe Roncin, Maxime Debiossac
To describe the grazing scattering of keV atoms at surface, a new quantum binary collision model have been proposed where the dynamical properties of the surface atoms are consider…
Elastic and inelastic diffraction of fast atoms,\linebreak Debye-Waller factor and Mössbauer-Lamb-Dicke regime
Philippe Roncin, Maxime Debiossac
The diffraction of fast atoms at crystal surfaces is ideal for a detailed investigation of the surface electronic density. However, instead of sharp diffraction spots, most experim…
Atom beam triangulation of organic layers at 100 meV normal energy: self-assembled perylene on Ag(110) at room temperature
Nataliya Kalashnyk, Philippe Roncin
The controlled growth of organic layer on surface is still awaiting for an on-line reliable monitoring that would allow improvement of its quality. We show here that the self-assem…
Image processing for grazing incidence fast atom diffraction
Maxime Debiossac, Philippe Roncin
Grazing incidence fast atom diffraction (GIFAD, or FAD) has developed as a surface sensitive technique. GIFAD is less sensitive to thermal decoherence but more demanding in terms o…
Grazing incidence fast atom diffraction for He atoms impinging on a Ag(110) surface
C. A. Ríos Rubiano, G. A. Bocan, M. S. Gravielle +3
Experimental diffraction patterns produced by grazing scattering of fast helium atoms from a Ag(110) surface are used as a sensitive tool to test both the scattering and the potent…
Diffraction of fast atoms and molecules from surfaces
J. R. Manson, Hocine Khemliche, Philippe Roncin
Prompted by recent experimental developments, a theory of surface scattering of fast atoms at grazing incidence is developed. The theory gives rise to a quantum mechanical limit fo…
