Adsorption of atomic and molecular oxygen on Cu(1 0 0)

چکیده
We have studied the initial stages of the oxidation of the Cu(1 0 0) surface using ab initio calculations. Both atomic and molecular oxygen are addressed. We show that subsurface oxygen is not energetically favourable, but gets stabilized by on-surface O. We discuss the adsorption of molecular oxygen using elbow plots, which can be used in order to qualitatively understand the measured sticking coefficient at different oxygen coverages. # 2004 Elsevier B.V.

Titration of Chiral Kink Sites on Cu(6 4 3) Using Iodine Adsorption
Density functional theory (DFT) and temperature programmed desorption (TPD) experiments have been used to probe the site preferences of adsorbed iodine atoms on Cu surfaces. DFT calculations are presented for iodine adsorption on Cu(1 1 1), Cu(1 0 0), Cu(2 2 1), Cu(5 3 3), Cu(5 3 1), and Cu(6 4 3). Additional DFT calculations are presented for I adsorption on a stepped Cu surface that mimics a ...
متن کاملADSORPTION OF ATOMIC AND MOLECULAR OXYGEN ON Si ( 00 1 ) 2 x 1 : COVERAGE DEPENDENCE OF THE AUGER O K V V LINESHAPE
By means of Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) we have monitored the room temperature adsorption of 02 and N20 on the clean Si(0 0 1)2 x I surface. We have found, for the first time, a significant variation in the intensity ratio of the K Lt L~ and K L23 L23 O Auger lines in the submonolayer range. This variation can be related to a change in bonding configuration of the oxygen atom/molecule in ...
متن کاملK / inetics of the adsorption of atomic oxygen ( N 20 ) on the Si ( 001 ) 2 × 1 surface as revealed by the change in the surface conductance
The adsorption behaviour of N20 on the Si(001)2 × ! surface at 300 K substrate temperature has been investigated by measuring in situ the surface conductance during the reaction process. For comparison we monitored in the same way the adsorption of 0 2 on the same surface which ultimately leads to the fiat band situation. The adsorption of atomic oxygen as released by decomposition of the N20 m...
متن کاملCommunication: Calculations of the (2 × 1)-O reconstruction kinetics on Cu(110).
Density functional theory calculations are used to study the elementary processes of the formation of the (2 × 1)-O reconstruction on the Cu(110) surface. The (2 × 1)-O reconstruction requires additional Cu atoms to form Cu-O rows on top of the surface. Both terrace and step sites are considered as the source of Cu adatoms. On terraces, adsorbed oxygen induces the ejection of Cu atoms to form -...

In this study, the structures, the IR spectroscopy, and the electronic properties of AunCum (n+m≤5) bimetallic clusters were studied and compared with those of pure gold and copper clusters using the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and exchange correlation density functional theory (DFT). The study of an O2-AunCum system is important to identify the promotion effects of each of the two...
