29. This method breaks down, for example, in the case when the adsorbed molecules have more than one binding energy, for instance for different adsorption sites, or in the case of phase transitions in adsorbed layers. In these cases the specular peak intensity can no longer provide reliable information on the change of the adsorbate coverage on the surface.
30. The energy of such a vibration for OCS on NaCl(100) lies in the range of 4-8 meV which leads to an uncertainty in the binding energy of 1-2% according to Eq. (1). The frequency of the vibration was measured in this work (mode 2 or 4) and was estimated theoretically by Lubezky and Folman (see Ref. [15]) to be equal to 7 meV. However, it should be noted that according to the elementary treatment of desorption based on classical equilibrium statistical mechanics (see e.g. C.T. Rettner, D.S. Bethune and E.K. Schweizer, J. Chem. Phys. 92 (1990) 1442), the rate constant in Eq. (1) might be estimated from the frequency of the vibration of the molecule against the surface in the case of the harmonic potential well perpendicular to the surface. Thus, the anharmonicity of the interaction potential between the admolecules and the substrate as well as the lateral interaction between the admolecules could cause some changes in the value of the rate constant and, hence, the binding energy.
