Abstract

We present high resolution KLL Auger spectra emerging from collisions of H-like and metastable He-like, C, N, and O on a B-doped Si(100) surface. In combination with the high resolution electron spectroscopy, Hartree-Fock calculations allow us to successfully identify KLL Auger electrons arising from specific states that form a part of the autoionization cascade as the multiply excited projectiles deexcite. We find strong evidence for Coster-Kronig transitions taking place in the hollow atoms which give rise to missing peaks in the Auger spectra.
