(a) Reflection absorption infrared spectrum (RAIRS) acquired on a pristine adsorbed layer of (η³-C₃H₅)Ru(CO)₃Cl on Ta. (b) RAIRS of the same layer after an electron exposure of 1.25·10¹⁷ e⁻/cm² at E₀ = 31 eV. (c) RAIRS of the same layer after annealing to 450 K during a subsequent TDS experiment and final cooling to 110 K.
