Face-dependent bond lengths in molecular chemisorption: the formate species on Cu(111) and Cu(110).
Many previous structural studies of molecular adsorbates on metal surfaces indicate that the local coordination and bonding is closely similar to that in organometallic compounds, implying that the metallic substrate has no significant influence. Here we show that such an influence is detectable for one model system, namely, the formate species, HCOO, adsorbed on the atomically rough and smooth...
متن کاملTable salt and other alkali metal chloride oligomers: structure, stability, and bonding.
We have investigated table salt and other alkali metal chloride monomers, ClM, and (distorted) cubic tetramers, (ClM)(4), with M = Li, Na, K, and Rb, using density functional theory (DFT) at the BP86/TZ2P level. Our objectives are to determine how the structure and thermochemistry (e.g., Cl-M bond lengths and strengths, oligomerization energies, etc.) of alkali metal chlorides depend on the met...
متن کاملAdsorption of alkali adatoms on graphene supported by the Au/Ni(111) surface
We study alkali-metal adsorption on supported graphene by means of density-functional-theory calculations that include dispersion corrections. Graphene supported by the Au/Ni(111) surface is an important system for fundamental studies because this surface allows one to support graphene, preserving the electronic properties of freestanding graphene. We investigate the binding energetics as well ...
متن کاملMagic alkali-fullerene compound clusters of extreme thermal stability.
The thermal stability of free pure C60-, as well as C60-alkali, and -alkaline-earth metal compound clusters is investigated. We find that small (C60)m-clusters (m<or=6) decay at comparatively low temperatures below 400 K, as a consequence of weak intermolecular van der Waals interaction. Adding barium or potassium to the clusters dramatically increases the decay temperatures for "magic" configu...
متن کاملPolarization and Covalency in Alkali – Tetralide Clusters
In this paper we discuss the structure of A 4 M 4 alkali(= A)–tetralide (= M) (= group 14) clusters. Without polarization these polyions consist of a central tetralide tetrahedron with each face capped by an alkali ion. We show that ionic polarization can lead to quite different cluster structures by breaking up of the tetralide tetrahedron into pairs M 2 , and it can even destroy covalent bond...
