28. Recent experiments in which a O + CO covered Ru(0001) surface was irradiated by infrared femtosecond laser pulses demonstrated that this obstacle may be overcome by weakening the Ru-O bond through transiently reaching high electron temperatures before CO desorption is completed by phonon excitation [M. Bonn et al., Science 285, 1042 (1999)].
29. Under similar tunneling conditions, adsorbed O atoms in the Ru(0001)-(2X2)-O phase were previously unequivocally identified with dark spots in the STM image [J. Wintterlin et al., Surf. Sci. 394, 159 (1997)].
