Determination of adsorbate orientation from symmetry rules in low-energy elastic electron scattering

Abstract

In this Letter we describe a particular elastic-scattering experiment which is simple to perform and which establishes a connection between the scattering pattern and the orientation of a molecule adsorbed on a solid surface. This approach is illustrated by examining the cases of CO and C_2H_4.
