A general method for controlling and resolving rotational orientation of molecules in molecule-surface collisions

A general method for controlling and resolving rotational orientation of molecules in molecule-surface collisions

The rotational orientation of a molecule plays a fundamental role in molecule-surface collisions, yet is difficult to study. Here, the authors present a general approach for controlling and resolving molecular rotational orientation and apply it to study H2scattering from flat and stepped copper sur...
