Description
Summary:Thе electrostatic potential near the surface of semilimited metal in an external electric field is calculated, using of the nonlocal electrostatics methods, the microscopic structure of its surface being taken into account. Thе contribution of the structure potential to the ion-surface interaction full potential in an external electric field was shown to depend on the electron concentration of metal substrate as well as on microscopic structure of its surface (the atomic structure of the relative metal face and the level of its adsorption covering). A decrease in free electron concentration in metal and in degree of submonolayer covering its surface by ordered lattice of adsorbed atoms (provided metal surface is quasineutral) results in a considerable increase of thе contribution of the structure potential.
