Abstract: | The structures of a monomeric water molecule adsorbed on p(2 x 2)-Ni(111)-O surface were determined by difference Fourier calculations. At temperatures of 25 K, water molecules chemisorb predominantly at 2 x 2 oxygen atom sites, forming an OH---O(ad) (2 x 2) hydrogen bond. A 2 x 2 oxygen atom (O(ad)) is surrounded by one to three monomeric water molecules, which take statistically disordered positions with threefold symmetry. At temperatures of 140 K, monomeric water molecules occupy a top site of Ni atoms via an oxygen lone pair and are stabilized as a singleton molecule on the surface. |
