Electron loss spectroscopy for vibrational analysis is an                       established technique best suited for adsorbates on polished                    metallic surfaces.  A departure from the standard instrumentation               will allow vibrational measurements on practical surfaces such as               rough metallic oxides.  The technique derives increased                         sensitivity and vibrational resolution from using low energy                    electrons in a way which maximizes the interaction cross section                and the collection efficiency for loss electrons.  Estimation of                the sensitivity increase is difficult because the cross sections                at low energy are not well known, however, at least an order of                 magnitude is expected from the increased collection efficiency.                 The technique is ideally suited for time resolved vibrational                   analysis on practical surfaces which cannot at present be done.
