    Abstract

    In order to clarify the underlying mechanism of the initial oxidation of aluminum, the reaction between a heteronuclear diatomic molecule, nitric oxide, and the Al(111) surface was studied. It was shown that the reaction of NO with aluminum is a two-step process including a change of the orientation of the molecule with respect to the surface.
