Abstract

Diamond (111) surfaces with the dehydrogenerated 2×1 reconstruction have been exposed to a beam of atomic fluorine at 300 K. The uptake of fluorine, as measured using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, is quite efficient and saturates at a coverage of less than a monolayer. Low energy electron diffraction patterns indicate that fluorine termination of the diamond surface produces a lxi bulk-like reconstruction in contrast to the disordered surface produced on the (100) surface.
