Using a first principles electronic structure method, we investigate how a band gap in the surface projected density of states of a noble metal influences the resonant tunneling lifetime of an atomic level near the surface. Comparing Li atoms outside Cu(111), where the Li 2s level is within the gap, with Cu(001), where the Li 2s level is below the gap, reveals that the lifetime of the ionization level...
