Abstract
Experimental field-emission spectra for the principal planes of the fcc transition-group metals (iridium, rhodium, palladium, and platinum) exhibit significant systematic agreement with relativistic augmented-plane-wave band calculations by Andersen. Surface band-edge contraction as well as effects of chemisorbed hydrogen and nitrogen are discussed.Keywords
