Abstract
ALTHOUGH it has long been appreciated that chemisorption is an anisotropic property of the crystalline substrate, few systematic studies have been reported. This communication reports a recent study in which absolute surface coverages of oxygen on copper have been measured as a function of crystallographic orientation and related to a model of surface structure.
