THE INFLUENCE OF THE PROMOTOR Co ATOMS ON THE ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF THE HIGHLY EDGED PLANE OF MoS2 CRYSTAL

To elucidate the promotion action of cobalt on Mo sulfide catalysts, UV-Photoelectron Spectroscopy(UPS), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Lou Energy Diffraction(LEED) have been applied to study the submonolayer deposited process of metal Co on the highly edged surfaces of MoS2 crystal. The results show that the electronic effect near EF rather than the chemical changes on the surfaces, might be primary influence.
