Quantum scattering theory o f diatomic molecules with na nolayers

In this work, we have theoretically studie d the adsorption and scattering of diatomic mole cules on na no surfaces by solving the Lippma nn-Schwinger equation, which have been previously studied by monte-carlo and molecular dynamics si mulations [۱,۲]. Scattering of atoms and molecules from a surface when gas – phonon interactions are negligible (s tationary surface) enable s a comparison between very accurate exp erimental r esults and theoretical ones obtained by exact quantum m echanical scattering calculations. Such a comparison pro ps the intera ction potent ial of the at om or molec ules with a solid surface and enlig hts the dynamical proces ses, which accrue on the solid surfa ce. In the sc attering of molecules from the stationary surfaces and nan olayers, pre sence of sur face enables energy tr ansfer amon g the degre es of freedom of the inc oming mole cules (excitation chann el of scattering).[۳,۴](...)
