Abstract
We have resolved the inconsistency between low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS) analyses concerning the orientation of molecular CO when chemisorbed in a structure on the Ni(001) surface. Dynamical analysis of new LEED data indicates that CO stands perpendicular to the Ni surface with the C atom on top of a Ni atom; preliminary results for the Ni-C and C-O separations are 1.72 and 1.15 Å, respectively.
