Molecular adsorption of H2 on small cationic nickel clusters.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An H2 molecule can bind molecularly on Ni4+ but it binds exclusively dissociatively on Ni5+ and Ni6+ and the adsorption behavior correlates with the relative reactivity of the metal clusters towards H2.

A computational investigation of H2 adsorption and dissociation on Au nanoparticles supported on TiO2 surface.
The specific role played by small gold nanoparticles supported on the rutile TiO2( 110) surface in the processes of adsorption and dissociation of H2 is discussed. It is demonstrated that the molecular and dissociative adsorption of H2 on Au(n) clusters containing n = 1, 2, 8 and 20 atoms depends on cluster size, geometry structure, cluster flexibility and the interaction with the support mater...
متن کاملInvestigation of structural and electronic properties of small Au n Cu m (n+m≤5) nano-clusters for Oxygen adsorption
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...
متن کاملAdsorption of CO2 and H2 on Cu and Zn Micro-Cluster Surfaces Studied by Quantum Chemistry and Theory of Absolute Reaction Rates
Statistical mechanics and semi-empirical molecular orbital theory (PM6) are used to calculate the surface coverage of CO2 and H2 molecular species chemically adsorbed on the surface of Cu and Zn micro clusters. The calculation shows that CO2 is adsorbed well both on the surface of Cu and Zn micro clusters. Although H2 is adsorbed well on the surface of Zn micro clusters, H2 absorption on the su...
متن کاملAdsorption of Ethylene on Neutral, Anionic and Cationic Gold Clusters
The adsorption of ethylene molecule on neutral, anionic and cationic gold clusters consisting of up to 10 atoms has been investigated using density-functional theory. It is demonstrated that C2H4 can be adsorbed on small gold clusters in two different configurations, corresponding to the πand di-σ -bonded species. Adsorption in the π-bonded mode dominates over the di-σ mode over all considered ...
متن کاملThe adsorption of CO on group 10 (Ni, Pd, Pt) transition-metal clusters.
The adsorption of a single CO molecule on clusters of the Group 10 transition metals is characterized by infrared multiple photon dissociation (IR-MPD) spectroscopy. The cationic, neutral, and anionic carbonyl complexes contain between 3 and up to 25 metal atoms. The C-O stretching frequency nu(CO) shows that while both nickel and platinum clusters adsorb CO only in atop positions, palladium cl...
