Abstract
We have calculated the sulphur (formula presented) near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra of (formula presented) molecule and (formula presented) adsorbed on Cu(111) in terms of the multiple-scattering cluster (MSC) and DV-(formula presented) methods. The cause of the resonances in the NEXAFS spectra has been revealed. MSC calculation shows that the (formula presented) molecule plane is distorted after being adsorbed on Cu(111) surface with (formula presented) axis perpendicular to the surface. The S (formula presented) atom is adsorbed on atop site while the three O (formula presented) atoms located on the right in the vicinity of fcc hollow site. The adsorption height is (formula presented) and the S-O bond length is (formula presented) These results are broadly in agreement with those of the x-ray standing waves analysis.
