“…For example, the electronic structure of ultrathin Pd films on transition metal substrates varies systematically with the substrate across the periodic table [2][3][4][5][6][7]. In fact, for Pd grown on bcc(110) metal surfaces (Nb, Ta, Mo, and W) the electronic structure of monolayer, pseudomorphic Pd most closely resembles that of a noble metal [2,[8][9][10][11][12], leading to surface chemical properties that are very different than those at the surface of bulk Pd [2,4,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Clearly, a surface atom's properties can be substantially influenced by its bonding with the underlying substrate.…”
