Using the complementary techniques of LEED and STM, the coadsorption of O with NO and H on the Ru(001) surface was investigated. With regard to the dense oxygen structures, this was the (2x2)-3O and (2x2)-(3O+NO) structure. Despite of its low scattering power it was possible to determine the adsorption site of Hydrogen for the (2x2)-(H+O) and (2x2)-(3H+O) coadsorbate layer. For all structures it was observed that even tightly packed crystal surfaces show flexible adaptation on changes in the surface electron density induced by adsorption. In addition, the correlation between surface strain and gas adsorption was investigated.
