In a typical pulsed TDS experiment, a sample is exposed to a gas at a constant temperature. The temperature is then increased in a stepwise manner, and the amount of desorbed gas is measured at each step. This process generates a TDS spectrum, which can be analyzed to determine the binding energies of different species on the surface. The pulsed nature of the technique allows for high-resolution data collection and can reveal subtle details about the mechanisms of adsorption and desorption.
