Linewidth of a Cesium Adatom Resonance on Ag(111) — •Martin Ziegler1, Jörg Kröger1, Richard Berndt1, Andrei Borisov2,3, and Jean-Pierre Gauyacq2,31Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel, D-24098 Kiel, Germany — 2CNRS, Laboratoire des Collisions Atomiques et Moléculaires, UMR 8625 , Bâtiment 351, 91405 Orsay Cedex, France — 3Université Paris-Sud, Laboratoire des Collisions Atomiques et Moléculaires, UMR 8625, Bâtiment 351, 91405 Orsay Cedex, France

Single Cs atoms adsorbed on Ag(111) induce a resonance appearing just below the threshold of the quasi-two-dimensional Shockley-type surface state continuum. Spectroscopic analysis using a cryogenic scanning tunneling microscope and theoretical modeling are used to identify the importance of the various contributions to the linewidth and to the decay of the resonance: resonant charge transfer, inelastic transitions, and adsorbate vibrations perpendicular to the surface. Financial support by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft through SFB668 is acknowledged.
