In this work, molecule-surface scattering is studied for the diatomic molecule nitric oxide (NO) and the polyatomic molecule formaldehyde. Following the approach of “molecular surface science”, elementary steps in the interaction of molecules with surfaces are revealed using a molecular beam surface scattering apparatus which permits the examination of the collision process under well-defined conditions. This requires that the initial molecular degrees of freedom are well controlled and that the final distribution over the molecular degrees of freedom can be obtained resolving single quantum states.
