Abstract
An angle‐resolved X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopic study has been performed on structures of self‐assembling systems, viz ferrocenylthiols on a gold (111) crystal. The angular dependence of the intensities of photoemission reveals that ferrocenyl groups are on the outermost layer, separated from the gold substrate by hydrocarbon chains of the thiol groups.Keywords
