H atom adsorption and diffusion on Si(110)-(1×1) and (2×1) surfaces

We present a periodic density-functional study of hydrogen adsorption and diffusion on the Si(110)-(1×1) and (2×1) surfaces, and identify a local reconstruction that stabilizes the clean Si(110)-(1×1) by 0.51 eV. Hydrogen saturates the dangling bonds of surface Si atoms on both reconstructions and the different structures can be identified from their simulated scanning tunneling microscopy/current image tunneling spectroscopy (STM/CITS) images. Hydrogen diffusion on both reconstructions will proceed preferentially along zigzag rows, in between two adjacent rows. The mobility of the hydrogen atom is higher on the (2×1) reconstruction. Diffusion of a hydrogen vacancy on a monohydride Si(110) surface will proceed along one zigzag row and is slightly more difficult (0.2 eV and 0.6 eV on (1×1) and (2×1), respectively) than hydrogen atom diffusion on the clean surface.     

Destabilisation of the Li-N-H hydrogen storage system with elemental Si

A significant improvement in the dehydrogenation kinetics of the (LiNH(2) + LiH) system was obtained upon doping with elemental Si. Whilst, complete dehydrogenation of the (LiNH(2) + LiH) system requires more than 2 h, the time required for full dehydrogenation was reduced to less than 30 min by doping with elemental Si. It is observed that Si thermodynamically destabilises the system through the formation of novel intermediate phases resulting from the reaction of Si with both LiNH(2) and LiH. Such intermediate phases are also believed to enhance reaction kinetics by providing a path for accelerated dehydrogenation and the rapid release of hydrogen at the early stages of the reaction. It is believed that the dehydrogenation kinetics of the (LiNH(2) + LiH) system, which is controlled by the diffusion of H(-) from LiH and H(+) from LiNH(2), becomes independent of diffusion upon Si addition due to an enhanced concentration gradient in reactive ionic species.

Effect of Metal Inclusions on the Porous Structure and Photocatalytic Activity of Titanium Dioxide

A study was carried out on the effect of the inclusion of a series of transition metals (V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zr, Mo) and also Al, Si, Zn, and Sn into titanium dioxide on its porous structure, anatase formation, and photocatalytic activity in the generation of molecular hydrogen from aqueous ethanol. An increase in the content of these metals leads to a decrease in photocatalytic activity, while an increase in the anatase content in titanium dioxide leads to an increase in such activity.

Hydrogen dynamics in Na3AlH6: a combined density functional theory and quasielastic neutron scattering study

Understanding the elusive catalytic role of titanium-based additives on the reversible hydrogenation of complex hydrides is an essential step toward developing hydrogen storage materials for the transport sector. Improved bulk diffusion of hydrogen is one of the proposed effects of doping sodium alanate with TiCl3, and here we study hydrogen dynamics in doped and undoped Na3AlH6 using a combination of density functional theory calculations and quasielastic neutron scattering. The hydrogen dynamics is found to be vacancy mediated and dominated by localized jump events, whereas long-range bulk diffusion requires significant activation. The fraction of mobile hydrogen is found to be small for both undoped and doped Na3AlH6, even at 350 K, and improved hydrogen diffusion as a result of bulk-substituted titanium is found to be unlikely. We also propose that previously detected low-temperature point defect motion in sodium alanate could result from vacancy-mediated sodium diffusion.     

Adsorption, diffusion, dewetting, and entrapment of acetone on Ni(111), surface-modified silicon, and amorphous solid water studied by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry and temperature programmed desorption

Interactions of acetone with the silicon surfaces terminated with hydrogen, hydroxyl, and perfluorocarbon are investigated; results are compared to those on amorphous solid water (ASW) to gain insights into the roles of hydrogen bonds in surface diffusion and hydration of acetone adspecies. The surface mobility of acetone occurs at ～60 K irrespective of the surface functional groups. Cooperative diffusion of adspecies results in a 2D liquid phase on the H- and perfluorocarbon-terminated surfaces, whereas cooperativity tends to be quenched via hydrogen bonding on the OH-terminated surface, thereby forming residues that diffuse slowly on the surface after evaporation of the physisorbed species (i.e., 2D liquid). The interaction of acetone adspecies on the non-porous ASW surface resembles that on the OH-terminated Si surface, but the acetone molecules tend to be hydrated on the porous ASW film, as evidenced by their desorption during the glass-liquid transition and crystallization of water. The roles of micropores in hydration of acetone molecules are discussed from comparison with the results using mesoporous Si substrates.     

Desorption related to adsorption of hydrogen via detailed balance on the Si(1 0 0) surfaces

Recent progress on desorption and adsorption dynamics of hydrogen (deuterium) on monohydride and dihydride Si(1 0 0) surfaces is reviewed and discussed. The dynamics experiments reveal that the desorption dynamics of hydrogen is well related to the adsorption dynamics via detailed balance. Dependence of time-of-flight (TOF) distributions of desorbed molecules on H(D) coverage is noticed to be important in understanding the kinetics mechanism of the adsorption/desorption reactions of hydrogen on the Si(1 0 0) surface. The desorption dynamics varies from the situation of strongly translational heating to the other situation of less translational heating with D coverage. This trend seems to be consistent with the 2H/3H/4H interdimer mechanism. However, despites by far the richest 4H configuration at high H coverage, the 2H desorption prevails over the 4H desorption already at 0.8 ML. To reconcile this unexpected desorption kinetics, a diffusion-promoted desorption mechanism is proposed. Height of the adsorption barriers for the 2H and 3H pathways could be reduced by the H-atom diffusion along the Si dimer rows, but that for the 4H pathway could not be the case because of no capability of diffusion on the H saturated surface. The desorption dynamics of hydrogen from the (3 × 1) dihydride surface is also reviewed and compared with the case on the monohydride surface. The sticking coefficients of hydrogen molecules onto the monohydride surfaces are evaluated from the TOF curves and found to be strongly activated by the kinetic energy. Not only the degrees of freedom of the molecules but also the vibrational degrees of freedom of substrate Si atoms determine the barrier height for adsorption. The desorption dynamics of hydrogen from the monohydride and dihydride surfaces appears to be quite similar, but the dynamics of substrate Si atoms is expected to be quite dissimilar between the two desorption pathways.     

Silsesquioxane models for silica surface silanol sites with adjacent siloxide functionalites and olefin polymerization catalysts thereof

Incompletely condensed silsesquioxanes of the type R7Si7O9(O[SiR'2O]n)OH (R = c-C5H9, c-C6H11; R' = Me, Ph; n = 1-4), containing a siloxane ring of variable size and rigidity and a remaining silanol, are described. Compared with a truly isolated silanol [R7Si8O12(OH)], solution and solid state FT-IR spectra of these compounds show a nu(OH) shift of approximately 150 cm(-1) to lower frequency, which suggests hydrogen bonding of the silanol with the internal siloxane ring. In agreement with this, the relative ion pair acidities of the silanols in THF, determined by UV/Vis, were lowered by 0.8-1.2 compared with a truly isolated silanol. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations on these systems confirm the presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Possible interaction of the silyl ether functionalities with Lewis acidic metal sites was studied for the neutral gallium-substituted systems and cationic titanium silsesquioxane complexes, models for an immobilized titanium olefin polymerization catalyst. The electron donating capability of the siloxide functionalities in 1, 6, and 7 is not sufficient to satisfy the electron deficiency of the corresponding gallium silsesquioxane species, which form dimeric structures with a bridging siloxide unit rather than Lewis base adducts with coordinated siloxide functionalities. Metallation of 1 and 4 with [Cp"Ti(CH2Ph)3] (Cp" = eta5-1,3-C5H3(SiMe3)2) in a 1:1 ratio afforded monomeric titanasilsesquioxanes. To probe the effect of the neighboring siloxane ring on the highly Lewis acidic titanium center, the catalytic activities of the corresponding cationic half-sandwich complexes were tested in 1-hexene polymerization. Compared with the catalyst system based on the isolated silanol [(c-C5H9)7Si8O12OH], the presence of a neighboring siloxane ring causes considerable retardation of the polymerization process but also improves the stability of the catalyst.

Molecular dynamics-based approach to study the anisotropic self-diffusion of molecules in porous materials with multiple cage types: application to H2 in losod

The anisotropic self-diffusion of molecular hydrogen in the multiple cage clathrasil losod (LOS) is modeled by means of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of up to 1 micros for the temperature range 900-1200 K while treating the framework as fully flexible. The LOS diffusion tensor is calculated employing an analytical method based on hopping rates. The diffusion in the c-direction of the unit cell is found to be approximately two times more rapid than in the a- and the b-directions, a characteristic of importance for the application of LOS as a membrane. The overall diffusion is based on five different hop types for which the individual hopping rates and diffusion barriers are calculated separately. We show explicitly that the shape and volume of the cages have a significant effect on the hopping rates and further that even small deformations of the circular Si6O6 apertures have a large influence on the energetic barrier for hydrogen diffusion. Compared to the single cage clathrasils dodecasil 3C (MTN) and sodalite (SOD), LOS has a lower diffusion rate. However, from a technical point of view this rate (at 573 K) is still fast enough for LOS to be interesting as a size-selective membrane or as a hydrogen-adsorption medium.     

Interface diffusion and chemical reaction of PZT layer/Si (111) sample during the annealing treatment in air

The interface diffusion and chemical reaction between a PZT (PbZrxTi1-xO3) layer and a Si(111) substrate during the annealing treatment in air have been studied by using XPS (X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy) and AES (Auger Electron Spectroscopy). The results indicate that the Ti element in the PZT precursor reacted with residual carbon and silicon, diffused from the Si substrate, to form TiCx, TiSix species in the PZT layer during the thermal treatment. A great interface diffusion and chemical reaction took place on the interface of PZT Si also. The silicon atoms diffused from silicon substrate onto the surface of PZT layer. The oxygen atoms, which came from air, diffused into silicon substrate also and reacted with Si atoms to form a SiO2 interlayer between the PZT layer and the Si (111) substrate. The thickness of SiO2 interlayer was proportional to the square root of treatment time. The formation of the SiO2 interlayer was governed by the diffusion of oxygen in the PZT layer at low annealing tempera     

The stability of titania‐silica interface

Silica is very often the catalyst support of choice for transition metal oxides such as titania, and specially anatase. Titania is an excellent absorber and photocatalyst for many organic molecules degradation. In order to understand the chemical nature of the interaction between titania and silica, we have performed a theoretical study using density functional theory aiming to elucidate the role on the stability of the interface of the specific type of interactions, H‐bonding, covalent bonding of the pristine surfaces, and covalent bonding after silicon and titanium ions interdiffusion. The calculations were carried out for hydrogen and oxygen terminated surface, comparing the bonding types and the forces acting along the interface. The interface dynamics was studied for interfaces under applied stress in order to elucidate their stability and failure limits. The shearing forces and the mechanisms of interface failure were determined. Interfaces with interdiffused Si and Ti ions were studied to improve the interface stabilization. The results demonstrate that high‐temperature treatment leading to formation of Si O Ti bonds at the interface is responsible for the formation of strong and flexible binding interaction between both oxides. At high strains, the Si O Ti interface failure is observed due to lattice mismatch between the SiO₂ and TiO₂. The failure is a result of forces acting orthogonal to the interface shearing. In case of hydrogen terminated surface, the interface binding is a result of hydrogen bond network. Such interface is fragile at moderate shearing forces along the applied strain. The hydrogen bond network decreases the elastic properties and flexibility of the interface. The SiO₂/TiO₂ interface is further stabilized by Si/Ti ion interdiffusion. The ionic interdiffusion process also increases the interface flexibility. Thus, in order to obtain more stable anatase photocatalyst supported on silica, the synthetic routes should favor silicon and titanium ions interdiffusion along the interface.     

Pathways of diffusion mixed with subsequent reactions with examples of hydrogen extraction from hydride-forming electrode and oxygen reduction at gas diffusion electrode

This paper covers the role of the rate-determining step (RDS) in anodic hydrogen extraction from hydride-forming electrode. In general, hydrogen extraction from the electrode proceeds through the following steps: (1) hydrogen diffusion within the electrode, (2) hydrogen transfer from absorbed state to adsorbed state, (3) electrochemical oxidation of hydrogen to hydrogen ion involving charge transfer, and (4) hydrogen ion conduction through the electrolyte. In most theoretical and experimental investigations, it has been assumed that the RDS of anodic hydrogen extraction is hydrogen diffusion through the electrode. In real situation, however, the overall rate of hydrogen extraction is simultaneously determined by the rates of two or more reaction steps including hydrogen diffusion. The present work provides the overview of anodic hydrogen extraction in case that diffusion is coupled with interfacial charge transfer, interfacial hydrogen transfer, and hydrogen ion conduction through the electrolyte as well as the purely diffusion-controlled hydrogen extraction. In addition, the mixed controlled diffusion model was also exemplified with oxygen reduction at gas diffusion electrode of fuel cell system.

Converting red mud wastes into mesoporous ZSM-5 decorated with TiO2 as an eco-friendly and efficient adsorbent-photocatalyst for dyes removal

Red mud wastes have been converted into mesoporous zeolite socony mobile-5 (ZSM-5) followed by deposited titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanoparticles to generate synergy adsorption-photodegradation for removal of dye removal in waste water. The amount of TiO₂ loading was varied to achieve optimum photocatalytic activity while maintaining the mesoporosity and high surface area of ZSM-5. Sol-gel method facilitated the formation of anatase TiO₂ on the ZSM-5. The fourier transform infrared spectra clarified the formation of Si–O–Ti at 957 cm^?1 by the exchanging the hydrogen ion with titanium ion, which proved by decreasing the absorption band of Si–OH and Si–O interaction at 964 and 944 cm^?1, respectively. Sol-gel method also preserved the mesopore diameter of ZSM-5 at 3.5 nm which allow the diffusion of methylene blue (MB) molecules into the pores. However, the surface area and the pore volume were slightly reduced with increasing the TiO₂ loading. The adsorption performance of samples showed that the increasing in the TiO₂ loading led to the decreasing in the adsorption capacity. All samples showed the suitability towards the pseudo second order kinetic. The Langmuir isotherm was suitable to describe the adsorption mechanism by monolayer adsorption. Mesoporosity of ZSM-5 accelerated the adsorption of dye via the increase of mass transfer in the pore channel which confirmed by the low intercept of intraparticle diffusion model at the first stage. The photocatalytic test showed that 10% TiO₂ loading on the ZSM-5 exhibited the highest methylene blue removal followed by 5% and 20% TiO₂ loading. Optimization on the amount of photocatalyst and the pH of solution indicated the reaction favoured 1 g L^?1 of catalysts and at alkaline pH. 10% TiO₂/ZSM-5 also exhibited high stability and reusability up to four reaction cycles. Photocatalytic performance of 10% TiO₂/ZSM-5 was further investigated on photodegradation of malachite green and rhodamine B organic dyes, which showed the photocatalytic efficiency of 73 and 88%, respectively. Superoxide radical, hydroxyl radical, and photogenerated electron were identified as the main active species for MB photodegradation based on the reduction of degradation rate following the addition scavenger molecules.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Ti-ZSM-5 in a Non-alkaline Medium in the Presence of Fluoride Ions

Ti-ZSM-5 was synthesized by hydro thermal crystallization in the presence of fluoride via using a non-alkaline medium. pH values were 5~7. SEM showed perfect Ti-ZSM-5 crystals and a large single crystal growing from the favourable medium. Substitution of titanium for silicon in the ZSM-5 framework led to a decrease of crystal size and of the length/width ratio. Electron microprobe analysis indicated a homogeneous distribution of titanium in the ZSM-5 framework. The unit cell parameters of the Ti-ZSM-5 determined by XRD increased with an increase in titanium content in the framework. TiO4tetrahedron vibrations were found in the IR spectrum. Si(1Ti) peakwas seen in the 29Si MAS NMR spectrum at -1O1ppm(from TMS) and 13CMAS NMR analysis verified the effect of (C3H7)4N F- occluded in thechannels. XPS study on the precursors, calcined and H2O2 adsorbed Ti-ZSM-5 was performed and some interesting results were observed.     

Chemical imaging of terrace-based active sites on gold

Scanning tunneling microscopy data of a mixed monolayer comprised of a 40:60 ratio of H8Si8O12 and C6H13-H7Si8O12 clusters on gold are presented. The images display a composite monolayer surface with well-defined domain regions of the individual components. Holes present at face-centered cubic (fcc) sites of the starting Au/H7Si8O12 adsorbate layer indicate the location of active sites for impinging C6H13-H7Si8O12 clusters. Adsorption of a C6H13-H7Si8O12 cluster likely yields a mobile hydrogen atom available to recombine with and desorb an adjacent H8Si8O12 cluster. Hydrogen atom diffusion along substrate [121] directions is the proposed pattern formation mechanism of the mixed monolayer. Imaging of the spherosiloxane cluster domains identifies a novel terrace-based active site located in the fcc regions of the Au(111) 23 x square root3 surface reconstruction.
