Abstract
Epitaxial MgO films on Ag(100) were studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. From the low-energy part of the spectra we obtain a negative electron affinity of about -0.9 eV. Even though electrons in the lowest conduction band are not confined by a potential barrier at the surface, quantum-well resonances are observed. The dispersion of the conduction band is determined in good agreement with theoretical calculations. Aspects of observing image-potential states predicted by theory on MgO films are discussed.

Abstract
By combining x-ray excited Auger electron diffraction experiments and multiple scattering calculations we reveal a layer-resolved shift for the Mg KL23L23 Auger transition in MgO ultrathin films (4-6 Å) on Ag(001). This resolution is exploited to demonstrate the possibility of controlling Mg atom incorporation at the MgO/Ag(001) interface by exposing the MgO films to a Mg flux. A substantial reduction of the MgO/Ag(001) work function is observed during the exposition phase and reflects both band-offset variations at the interface and band bending effects in the oxide film.

Abstract
Due to the well-known problem of the self-interaction, standard density functional theory (DFT) methods tend to produce delocalized holes and electrons in defective oxide materials even when there is ample experimental evidence of a strong localization. For late transition metal compounds or rare earth oxides, this results in the incorrect description of the electronic structure of the system (e.g., magnetic insulators are predicted to be metallic). Practical ways to correct this deficiency are based on the use of hybrid functionals or of the DFT+U approach. In this way, most of the limitations related to the self-interaction are removed, and the electronic structure is properly described. What is less clear is to what extent hybrid functionals, DFT+U approaches, or standard DFT functionals can properly describe the strength of the chemical bonds at the surface of an oxide. This is a crucial question if one is interested in the catalytic properties of oxide surfaces. Oxidation reactions often involve oxygen detachment from the surface and incorporation into an organic substrate. Oxides are doped with heteroatoms to create defects and facilitate oxygen removal from the surface, with formation of oxygen vacancies. Do standard DFT calculations provide a good binding energy of the missing oxygen despite the failure in giving the right electronic structure? Can hybrid functionals or the DFT+U approach provide a simple yet reliable way to get accurate reaction enthalpies and energy barriers? In this essay, we discuss these problems by analyzing some case histories and the relatively scarce data existing in the literature. The conclusion is that while modern electronic structure methods accurately reproduce and predict a wide range of electronic, optical, and magnetic properties of oxides, the description of the strength of chemical bonds still needs considerable improvements.

Abstract
The adsorption of acetic acid on a proton-ordered water ice surface is modeled using periodic plane-waves density-functional theory. The structures of acetic acid adsorbed as a monomer or oligomers, hydrated or not, are calculated through gradient optimization. The resulting quantum electronic density of states are compared to metastable impact electron spectroscopy (MIES) results and lead to selection of the most plausible structures of acetic acid on water ice. Hypotheses are formulated for the structure of the acid film growing on the ice surface including mainly cyclic dimers and hydrated forms. Adsorptions of single water molecules on acetic acid crystal surfaces are also studied after optimization of the acetic acid crystal bulk and surface structure. More comparisons with spectroscopic studies are proposed in the accompanying paper.

Abstract
Ultra-thin oxide films grown on a metal substrate and of thickness smaller than 1 nm may exhibit unusual properties with respect to thicker films or single crystal oxide surfaces. In a previous study [G. Pacchioni, L. Giordano and M. Baistrocchi, Phys. Rev. Lett., 2005, 94, 226104] we have suggested that a Au atom adsorbed on a MgO/Mo(100) thin film becomes negatively charged by direct electron tunneling from the Mo metal and that this is related to the low MgO/Mo(100) work function. Here we show, based on periodic DFT supercell calculations, that charge transfer can occur also in the opposite direction by adsorption of electropositive K atoms on MgO/Ag(100) films. We predict the occurrence of a charge transfer also for Au on MgO/Ag(100) films despite the fact that here the work function is 1 eV larger than in MgO/Mo(100). The formation of a layer of adsorbed negative (Au delta-/MgO/Ag) or positive (K delta+/MgO/Ag) adsorbates results in an increase or decrease, respectively, of the MgO/Ag(100) work function as predicted by the classical Gurney model for ionic adsorbates on metal surfaces.

Abstract
The interaction of CsF with multilayered water has been investigated with metastable impact electron spectroscopy (MIES) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy with HeI (UPS(HeI)). We have studied the emission from the ionization of H2O states 1b1, 3a1, and 1b2; of Cs5p and of F2p. We have prepared CsF-H2O interfaces, namely, CsF layers on thin films of multilayered water and vice versa; they were annealed between 80 and about 280 K. Up to about 100 K, a closed CsF layer can be deposited on H2O and vice versa; no interpenetration of the two components H2O and CsF could be observed. Above 110 K, CsF (H2O) layers deposited on thin H2O (CsF) films (stoichiometry CsF.1.5H2O) gradually transform into a mixed layer containing F, Cs, and H2O species. When annealing, H2O molecules can be detected up to 200 K from the mixed F-Cs-H2O layer (while for pure H2O desorption is essentially complete at 165 K); a water network is not formed under these conditions, and all H2O molecules are involved in bonding with Cs+ and F- ions. When CsF is deposited at 120 K on sufficiently thick water multilayers, full solvation of both F and Cs takes place, even for the species closest to the surface, as long as the stoichiometry remains CsF.(H2O)n with n > 3.

Abstract
The interaction of formic acid (HCOOH) with solid water, deposited on tungsten at 80 K, was investigated. We have prepared and annealed formic acid (FA)/water interfaces (FA layers on thin films of solid water and H(2)O adlayers on thin FA films). Metastable impact electron spectroscopy and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (He I and II) were utilized to study the electron emission from the 10a' to 6a' molecular orbitals (MOs) of FA, and the 1b(1), 3a(1), and 1b(2) MOs of H(2)O. These spectra were compared with results of density-functional theory calculations on FA-H(2)O complexes reported in Ref. 14 [A. Allouche, J. Chem. Phys. 122, 234703(2005), (preceding paper)]. Temperature programmed desorption was applied for information on the desorption kinetics. Initially, FA is adsorbed on top of the water film. The FA spectra are distorted with respect to those from FA monomers; it is concluded that a strong interaction exists between the adsorbates. Even though partial solvation of FA species takes place during annealing, FA remains in the top layer up to the desorption of the water film. When H(2)O molecules are offered to FA films at 80 K, no water network is formed during the initial stage of water exposure; H(2)O molecules interact individually via H bonds with the formic acid network. Experiment and theory agree that no water-induced deprotonation of the formic acid molecules takes place.

Abstract
The interaction of NaCl with solid water, deposited on tungsten at 80 K, was investigated with metastable impact electron spectroscopy (MIES) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) (He I). We have studied the ionization of Cl(3p) and the 1b(1), 3a(1), and 1b(2) bands of molecular water. The results are supplemented by first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the electronic structure of solvated Cl(-) ions. We have prepared NaCl/water interfaces at 80 K, NaCl layers on thin films of solid water, and H(2)O ad-layers on thin NaCl films; they were annealed between 80 and 300 K. At 80 K, closed layers of NaCl on H(2)O, and vice versa, are obtained; no interpenetration of the two components H(2)O and NaCl was observed. However, ionic dissociation of NaCl takes place when H(2)O and NaCl are in direct contact. Above 115 K solvation of the ionic species Cl(-) becomes significant. Our results are compatible with a transition of Cl(-) species from an interface site (Cl in direct contact with the NaCl lattice) to an energetically favored configuration, where Cl species are solvated. The DFT calculations show that Cl(-) species, surrounded by their solvation shell, are nevertheless by some extent accessed by MIES because the Cl(3p)-charge cloud extends through the solvation shell. Water desorption is noticeable around 145 K, but is not complete before 170 K, about 15 K higher than for pure solid water. Above 150 K the NaCl-induced modification of the water network gives rise to gas phase like structures in the water spectra. In particular, the 3a(1) emission turns into a well-defined peak. This suggests that under these conditions water molecules interact mainly with Cl(-) rather than among themselves. Above 170 K only Cl is detected on the surface and desorbs around 450 K.

Abstract
The (001) surface of UHV cleaved single MgO crystals was imaged with dynamic mode scanning force microscopy. Large-scale images show various defects, like steps of mostly one atomic height, rectangular holes of nanometer size, and some complex adstructures. First time images with atomic resolution show one square ionic sublattice in its bulklike dimension with a corrugation of up to 40 pm along the <001> direction. Most images exhibit atomic point defects which appear as depressions including a few ionic lattice sites proving that point defects are stable on flat terraces.
