NO2在Ag/Pt(110)双金属表面上的吸附和分解

利用俄歇电子能谱(AES)和程序升温脱附谱(TDS)研究了NO₂在Ag/Pt(110)双金属表面的吸附和分解.室温下NO₂ 在Ag/Pt(110)双金属表面发生解离吸附, 生成NO(ads)和O(ads)表面吸附物种. 在升温过程中NO(ads)物种发生脱附或者进一步分解. 500 K时NO₂在Ag/Pt(110)双金属表面发生解离吸附生成O(ads)表面吸附物种.

TiO2负载Mn-Co复合氧化物催化剂上NO催化氧化性能

氮氧化物(NO_x)是大气主要污染物之一, 主要来源于化石燃料的燃烧, 其中NO不溶于水难以去除, 催化氧化技术可以将NO氧化为易溶于水可被脱硫装置去除的NO₂, 具有十分重要的实际意义. 本文采用浸渍法制备了不同Mn掺杂量的Mn-Co/TiO₂复合金属氧化物催化剂, 考察了其催化NO氧化的活性. 结果表明, Mn的掺杂对Co/TiO₂催化剂催化NO氧化的活性有明显促进作用, 掺杂量为6%时, Mn(0.3)-Co(0.7)/TiO₂催化剂NO的转化效率最高, 300℃达到88%. 采用X射线衍射(XRD)、N₂吸附/脱附、H₂程序升温还原(H₂-TPR)、O₂程序升温脱附(O₂-TPD)和原位漫反射傅里叶变换红外(in-situ DRFTIR)光谱等技术对催化剂的物理化学特征进行了表征. 结果发现, 当掺杂量为6%时, Mn一方面促进了催化剂表面活性组分的分散, 增加了催化剂的比表面积和孔径; 另一方面提高了催化剂的还原性能, 促进氧的低温脱附, 此外还促进了反应中间产物桥式NO-3向NO₂的反应, 从而提高了Co/TiO₂催化剂的NO氧化活性.

CO oxidation over supported Pt clusters at different CO coverage

CO adsorption and oxidation over supported Pt₁₄ with different CO coverage on TiO₂(110) surface were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and thermodynamic analysis. According to the phase diagram, Pt₁₄/TiO₂(110) and 11CO@Pt₁₄/TiO₂(110) were chosen to represent the low and high CO coverage of Pt clusters, respectively. Our study shows that the high coverage of CO can induce the structural change of supported Pt clusters and weaken the interaction between Pt clusters and TiO₂ support. The CO adsorption and oxidation mechanism depends on the CO coverage, which is determined by the experimental reactant composition, pressure, and temperature. At low CO coverage, the dissociated oxygen is active specie to form CO₂ by reacting with CO. At high coverage, the molecular oxygen can directly react with CO via the formation of OOCO intermediate. Our proposed mechanisms provide useful information for understanding the CO oxidation over Pt clusters with different CO coverage. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

NO在Mn_2O_3(110)表面吸附的密度泛函理论研究

基于第一性原理密度泛函计算方法研究了NO在Mn_2O_3(110)面的吸附行为,计算了Mn_2O_3(110)面吸附NO和O_2的吸附构型的结构参数、吸附能和电子结构.结果表明,在Mn_2O_3(110)表面上,NO倾向于吸附在Mn top位,吸附前后的结构总能变化在-0.61~-1.29 eV之间,NO吸附后Mn吸附位周围的配位结构发生变化,使得Mn的电子向NO转移.进一步研究了吸附O_2后的Mn_2O_3表面再进一步吸附NO的行为,发现了ONOO*结构的形成.NO和O_2在表面共吸附形成ONOO*结构时的吸附能(-1.23和-1.39 eV)高于单纯吸附NO时的吸附能,此时Mn的电子向ONOO*结构转移,NO和O_2投影态密度的电子峰广泛交叠,说明成键原子之间有强共价键作用.     

NO adsorption on the stoichiometric and reduced SnO2(110) surface

The adsorption of NO molecules on the perfect and defective (110) surfaces of SnO₂ was studied with first-principles methods at the density-functional theory level. It was found that NO mainly interacts via the nitrogen atom with the bridging oxygens of the stoichiometric surface while the coordinatively unsaturated surface Sn atoms are less reactive. On the oxygen-deficient surface, NO is preferentially adsorbed at the vacancy positions, with the nitrogen atom close to the former surface oxygen site. Regardless of the adsorption site, the unpaired electron is located mainly on the NO molecule and only partly on surface Sn atoms. The results for the SnO₂ surface are compared to literature results on the isostructural TiO₂ rutile (110) surface. Dedicated to Professor Karl Jug on the occasion of his 65th birthday     

Active Sites for Adsorption and Reaction of Molecules on Rutile TiO2(110) and Anatase TiO2(001) Surfaces (cited: 1)

The reactivity of specific sites on rutile TiO₂(110)-(1×1) surface and anatase TiO₂(001)-(1×4) surface has been comparably studied by means of high resolution scanning tunneling microscopy. At the rutile TiO₂(110)-(1×1) surface, we find the defects of oxygen vacancy provide distinct reactivity for O₂ and CO₂ adsorption, while the terminal fivefold-coordinated Ti sites dominate the photocatalytic reactivity for H₂O and CH₃OH dissociation. At the anatase TiO₂(001)-(1×4) surface, the sixfold-coordinated terminal Ti sites at the oxidized surface seem to be inert in both O₂ and H₂O reactions, but the Ti-rich defects which introduce the Ti³⁺ state into the reduced surface are found to provide high reactivity for the reactions of O₂ and H₂O. By comparing the reactions on both rutile and anatase surfaces under similar experimental conditions, we find the reactivity of anatase TiO₂(001) is actually lower than rutile TiO₂(110), which challenges the conventional knowledge that the anatase (001) is the most reactive TiO₂ surface. Our findings could provide atomic level insights into the mechanisms of TiO₂ based catalytic and photocatalytic chemical reactions.     

Quantum-chemical study of adsorption of Ag<Subscript>2</Subscript>, Ag<Subscript>4</Subscript>, and Ag<Subscript>8</Subscript> on different parts of the TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> surface

Quantum-chemical study of the adsorption of two-, four- and eight-atomic silver clusters on stoichiometric and partially reduced rutile (110) surface, and of silver tetramer on the surface of anatase (101) was carried out in the framework of periodic DFT model. The most energetically favorable positions of clusters on the surface of TiO₂ and the mechanism of binding the clusters with the substrate were revealed. According to the calculations, the adsorption of silver clusters on the surface of stoichiometric rutile (110) is more preferable than on the partially reduced one. The mechanism of binding the clusters with the surface of anatase and rutile is shown to be similar.     

Unique adsorption behaviors of NO and O2 at hydrogenated anatase TiO2(101)

The extra electron on the hydrogenated anatase TiO₂(101) is localized at the nearest Ti_5c only, and the chargetransfer promoted NO and O₂ adsorptions are also site-selective. These results are totally different from those at hydrogenated rutile TiO₂(110).     

Structures and dynamic behavior of catalyst model surfaces characterized by modern physical techniques

This paper reports the visualization of mobile pyridine on the terraces and site-specific adsorption of pyridine on the particular step sites on a TiO₂(110)-(1×1) surface by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), the anisotropic structure and reactivity of molybdenum oxides dispersed on TiO₂(110)-(1×1) characterized by polarization-dependent total-reflection fluorescence x-ray absorption fine structure (PTRF-EXAFS), and the energy dispersive and real-time images of Au mesh on Si(111) recorded by a new x-ray photoemission electron miscroscopy (XPEEM).     

Facet Dependence of Photochemistry of Methanol on Single Crystalline Rutile Titania

The crystal phase, morphology and facet significantly influence the catalytic and photocatalytic activity of TiO₂. In view of optimizing the performance of catalysts, extensive efforts have been devoted to designing new sophisticate TiO₂ structures with desired facet exposure, necessitating the understanding of chemical properties of individual surface. In this work, we have examined the photooxidation of methanol on TiO₂(011)-(2×1) and TiO₂(110)-(1×1) by two-photon photoemission spectroscopy (2PPE). An excited state at 2.5 eV above the Fermi level (E_F) on methanol covered (011) and (110) interface has been detected. The excited state is an indicator of reduction of TiO₂ interface. Irradiation dependence of the excited resonance signal during the photochemistry of methanol on TiO₂(011)-(2×1) and TiO₂(110)-(1×1) is ascribed to the interface reduction by producing surface hydroxyls. The reaction rate of photooxidation of methanol on TiO₂(110)-(1×1) is about 11.4 times faster than that on TiO₂(011)-(2×1), which is tentatively explained by the difference in the surface atomic configuration. This work not only provides a detailed characterization of the electronic structure of methanol/TiO₂ interface by 2PPE, but also shows the importance of the surface structure in the photoreactivity on TiO₂.     

Kinetics and Dynamics of Photocatalyzed Dissociation of Ethanol on TiO2(110) (cited: 2)

The kinetics and dynamics of photocatalyzed dissociation of ethanol on TiO₂(110) sur-face have been studied using the time-dependent and time-resolved femtosecond two-photon photoemission spectroscopy respectively, in order to unravel the photochemical properties of ethanol on this prototypical metal oxide surface. By monitoring the time evolution of the photoinduced excited state which is associated with the photocatalyzed dissociation of ethanol on Ti_5c sites of TiO₂(110), the fractal-like kinetics of this surface photocatalytic reaction has been obtained. The measured photocatalytic dissociation rate on reduced TiO₂(110) is faster than that on the oxidized surface. This is attributed to the larger defect density on the reduced surface which lowers the reaction barrier of the photocatalytic reaction at least methodologically. Possible reasons associated with the defect electrons for the acceleration have been discussed. By performing the interferometric two-pulse corre-lation on ethanol/TiO₂(110) interface, the ultrafast electron dynamics of the excited state has been measured. The analyzed lifetime (24 fs) of the excited state is similar to that on methanol/TiO₂(110). The appearance of the excited state provides a channel to mediate the electron transfer between the TiO₂ substrate and its environment. Therefore studying its ultrafast electron dynamics may lead to the understanding of the microscopic mechanism of photocatalysis and photoelectrochemical energy conversion on TiO₂.     

Acetonitrile adsorption and decomposition on the SnO2 (110) surface: a first-principles computation

The adsorption and decomposition of acetonitrile on the SnO₂ (110) surface were investigated by means of first-principles computations. It is found that acetonitrile could be relatively easier decomposed into CH₃ and CN fragments on the SnO₂ (110) surface than on TiO₂ (110), which agrees with the experimental results. The higher activity of the SnO₂ (110) surface than the TiO₂ (110) surface can be attributed to its higher work function and closer molecular orbital energies.
