In this paper we study the influence of adsorption-induced surface reconstruction on both the adsorption–desorption kinetics and the surface diffusion of adsorbed particles. The reconstruction is regarded as an order–disorder phase transition, which is described in the framework of the lattice gas formalism by the two-position (2P) model. Adsorption is studied by kinetic Monte Carlo simulations while surface diffusion coefficients are evaluated by using the classical Monte Carlo modeling. Utilizing Monte Carlo simulations we characterize how the behavior of the chemical (D), the jump (DJ) and the tracer (D*) diffusion coefficients depend on the different ordered phases predicted by the model.

Contamination in electron microscopes can be a serious problem in STEM or in situations where a number of high resolution micrographs are required of the same area in TEM. In modern instruments the environment around the specimen can be made free of the hydrocarbon molecules, which are responsible for contamination, by means of either ultra-high vacuum or cryo-pumping techniques. However, these techniques are not effective against hydrocarbon molecules adsorbed on the specimen surface before or during its introduction into the microscope. The present paper is concerned with a theory of how certain physical parameters can influence the surface diffusion of these adsorbed molecules into the electron beam where they are deposited in the form of long chain carbon compounds by interaction with the primary electrons.
