CO在轻微氧化的Mo(100)表面上的吸附和反应

应用HREELS和TDS研究了120K时CO在轻微氧化的Mo(100)上的吸附和脱附状况.120K时,CO在轻微氧化的Mo(100)上存在顶位垂直吸附(ν_CO=2016～2050cm^-1)、四重空位倾斜吸附(ν_CO=1088cm^-1)和通过π键与表面发生作用的倾斜吸附(ν_CO=1600cm^-1).当表面温度升高时,顶位吸附的CO在低覆盖度下发生解离,但在较高覆盖度下,可以同时发生脱附(T_p=319K)和解离;而后两种吸附态在温度升高时只发生解离.CO解离产生的C原子和O原子在930K和1320K时可重新结合成CO脱附.     

N2在含氧Mo(100)表面上的热稳定性

近年来,氮化钼作为催化新材料引起了人们的广泛兴趣.Bafrali等[1,2]在超高真空体系中制备了Mo(100)-c(2×2)N模型表面,并应用热脱附谱(TDS)研究其加氢脱氮等催化性质.他们指出,NH3分解生成的氮原子Nads与Mo(100)-c(2×2)N表面结合牢固,Nads化合形成的N2在1 200 K以上从表面脱附.最近,朱俊发等[3,4]也成功地制备了Mo(100)-c(2×2)N表面,并研究了CO和15NO分子在其上的吸附和反应.他们在研究氮在含氧Mo(100)面上的吸附时发现,吸附了氮的表面经1 100 K退火后形成了有序的c(2×2)N表面结构[5].这些工作各自描述了Mo(100)-c(2×2)N模型表面的制备条件,所需氮的暴露量相差很大.本文在前人工作的基础上,应用俄歇电子能谱(AES)、低能电子衍射(LEED)和热脱附谱等表面分析手段研究了含氧Mo(100)单晶的氮化过程.     

γ-Mo2N催化剂上H2及NO吸附性质的TPD-MS研究

采用TPD-MS方法研究了H2及NO在γ-Mo2N上的吸附状况．单独的H2-TPD结果表明,当H2在673K吸附时,在443K、573K及723K得到了三个H2脱附峰,表明γ-Mo2N上有三种不同能量的H2吸附位．NO－TPD结果表明,NO吸附后亦有三个脱附峰（383K、493K、543K）,对应着γ-Mo2N上三种不同能量的NO吸附位：低、中、高能吸附位．NO既可以以解离状态,又可以以一种NO三聚态（dimerordinitrosyl）的形式吸附在γ－Mo2N上,这些吸附物种在脱附过程中产生大量的N2及少量的N2O.对比NO吸附在不同处理条件的γ-Mo2N上的TPD结果可知,NO是吸附在γ-Mo2N上的MO的配位不饱和中心上,这些吸附中心既可通过还原催化剂,又可通过在773K抽空钝化态的γ－Mo2N而产生,H2和NO共吸附的结果表明,预吸附H2再吸附NO后,H2和NO的脱附量均大大减少,且只有两个脱附峰出现.NO只在363K及493K出现两个脱附峰,表明预吸附氢占据了NO的强吸附位,且NO很难取代它,从而使NO只能吸附在能量较低的吸附位上;而H2只在523K及723K出现两个脱附峰,且伴随着H2的脱出有N2和H2O的产生,表明在γ－Mo2N上NO可能与预吸附氢形成了一种复合相MoHx（NO）y,它在脱附时分解为H2、N2及H2O.     

甲酸在轻微氧化的Nb(110)表面吸附的HREELS研究

用高分辨电子能量损失谱(HREELS)研究了甲酸在轻微氧化的Nb(110)表面(O/Nb原子比=0.2)上的吸附与分解,提出了相应的表面反应模式.140K时,低暴露量的甲酸在该表面解离生成甲酸根(HCOO),生成的甲酸根以单齿形式键合在Nb上,同时也有少量甲酸分解生成吸附态的CO;高暴露量时则生成多层物理吸附的固体甲酸.升温至～190K,物理吸附的甲酸脱附,此时的表面为单齿键合的HCOO和CO所覆盖.温度升至250～300K时,HCOO的吸附态由单齿式转变成桥式,同时表面吸附的CO分子消失.升温过程的HREELS表明HCOO的分解导致了Nb的氧化.暴露量较高时表面的甲酸根比较稳定以致于在540K的高温时仍不完全分解.     

Mo/Fe3O4(111)表面对燃煤烟气汞吸附的密度泛函研究

利用CASTEP软件包采用密度泛函理论计算研究了过渡金属Mo掺杂Fe_3O_4(111)Fe_(tet)表面对Hg~0、HgCl和HgCl_2的吸附特征,分析了Mo掺杂前后Fe_3O_4(111)Fe_(tet)表面上不同汞物种的吸附形态。结果表明,Mo掺杂Fe_3O_4(111)Fe_(tet)表面对HgCl和HgCl_2为化学吸附,而对Hg~0的吸附为物理吸附;与纯净表面相比,HgCl在Mo原子掺杂表面上的吸附能提高了40%-66%。HgCl_2在纯净Fe_3O_4(111)Fe_(tet)表面形成"M"形结构;而掺杂Mo原子后,由于Cl原子与Mo原子之间更强的相互作用,使得HgCl_2发生了完全解离,两个Cl原子分别与Mo原子和Fe原子成键吸附在表面,Hg脱附。相关研究结果可为脱除燃煤烟气中的汞提供一定的理论指导。     

甲基、氨基和甲胺在清洁及C(N,O)改性的Mo(100)表面的吸附

采用广义梯度近似(GGA)的密度泛函理论(DFT), 并结合平板模型, 研究了甲基、氨基和甲胺在清洁及C(N, O)改性的Mo(100)面的吸附行为. 计算结果表明, 在较低覆盖度下(θ=1/6 ML(monolayer)), 吸附物种在不同表面上的稳定吸附位的吸附能变化不大; 而在较高覆盖度下(θ=1/4 ML), 其稳定的吸附位置可能发生变化, 且吸附能有了明显的区别. 它们在改性的Mo(100)表面吸附能较清洁表面小, 并且按C、N、O的顺序降低. 究其原因可归结为C、N、O性原子的存在使得金属表面的供电子能力减弱, 从而导致金属的d带中心的下移. 通过对金属Mo的d带性质的分析, 发现d带中心只能笼统地说明改性原子对于清洁表面的性质有一定的影响, 不能很好地体现C、N、O对于清洁表面性质影响的差异, 而dz2轨道的能量中心却能很好地反映出吸附物种在改性表面上的吸附能按C、N、O的顺序依次减小这一规律.     

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. Pt 向Ag传递电子, 从而削弱Pt－O键的强度, 降低O(ads)从Pt 表面的并合脱附温度. 发现能够形成具有稳定组成的Ag/Pt(110)合金结构, 其表现出与Pt(110)-(1×2)相似的解离吸附NO₂能力, 但与O(ads)的结合明显弱于Pt(110)-(1×2). 该AgPt(110)合金结构是可能的低温催化直接分解氮氧化物活性结构.     

CO在Sm/Rh(100)模型表面上的吸附与反应

应用AES,LEED,XPS和TDS研究了Rh(100)上Sm膜和Sm/Rh表面合金以及CO在这两类模型表面的吸附与反应.室温下Sm在Rh(100)上的生长遵从SK模式,Sm膜经900K高温退火后可形成有序表面合金.在室温制备的Sm膜/Rh(100)表面上,室温下CO在Sm上的吸附改变了表面结构,生成SmOx和表面碳.随着Sm覆盖度的增加,低温脱附峰(α-CO)面积迅速下降,且峰温向高温方向位移;表明Sm的空间位阻和电子效应同时起作用.在Sm/Rh合金表面上,CO在约590K出现新的脱附峰,可归属为受Sm电正性修饰的Rh原子上的CO脱附峰     

甲胺在清洁及磷改性Mo(100)表面的解离

采用广义梯度近似(GGA)的密度泛函理论(DFT)(DFT-GGA)并结合平板模型, 研究了甲胺在清洁及磷(P)改性的Mo(100)表面(P-Mo(100))发生C—N键断裂的反应历程(CH3NH2→CH3+NH2). 优化了裂解过程中反应物、过渡态和产物的几何构型, 获得了反应路径上各物种的吸附能及反应的活化能数据. 计算结果表明, 在清洁和磷改性的Mo(100)表面, 甲胺均稳定吸附在顶位, 甲基和氨基最稳定的吸附位置均为桥位. 甲胺的C—N键在P-Mo(100)表面裂解的活化能为2.39 eV, 高于其在清洁表面的活化能(1.99 eV). 这表明Mo(100)表面被预吸附的P原子钝化了. 电子结构分析表明, 改性P原子使得金属Mo的供电子能力减弱, 导致它的d带中心下移, 从而降低了该表面的反应活性, 提高了甲胺的C—N键裂解的活化能. 活化能的分解表明, C—N键在P-Mo(100)与Mo(100)表面裂解的活化能的差异主要体现在初态到过渡态时甲胺的结构变化引起的能量变化(△EdefCH3NH2)、过渡态仅有甲基存在时的吸附能(ETSCH3)和过渡态甲基和氨基的相互作用(EintCH3…NH2). △EdefCH3NH2和ETSCH3使活化能升高幅度大于EintCH3…NH2使活化能降低幅度, 最终导致甲胺的C—N键在P-Mo(100)表面裂解的活化能要高于在Mo(100)表面裂解的活化能.     

预吸附氧对NO在Pt(110)表面吸附和分解的影响

 利用程序升温反应谱、X射线光电子能谱和高分辨电子能量损失谱研究了NO在清洁和预吸附氧的Pt(110)表面的吸附和分解. 在清洁的Pt(110)表面,室温下低覆盖度时NO以桥式吸附为主,高覆盖度时NO以线式吸附为主. 加热过程中部分NO(主要是桥式吸附物种)分解,生成N2和N2O. 室温下O2在Pt(110)表面发生解离吸附. Pt(110)表面预吸附氧会抑制桥式吸附NO的生成,并导致其脱附温度降低40 K. 降低脱附温度有利于桥式吸附NO的分子脱附,从而抑制分解反应. 这些结果从表面化学的角度合理地解释了铂催化剂在富氧条件下对NO分解能力的降低.     

Advances of sensitive techniques in laser spectroscopy

Different techniques are used for the sensitive detection of overtone transitions of small molecules, such as H₂S, C₂H₂, OCS, O₃ in the visible and near infrared region. The techniques include: phase-modulated or wavelength-modulation absorption spectroscopy with a widely tunable single mode diode laser, opto-acoustic spectroscopy in resonance cells with a color center laser or a Ti:Sapphire laser, and sub-Doppler opto-thermal spectroscopy in cold collimated molecular beams, using a low temperature bolometer as detector. The three techniques are compared with regard to sensitivity and spectral resolution. The mass selective sensitive detection of small metal clusters Li₃ and Na₃ and their high resolution sub-Doppler spectroscopy, using resonant two-photon ionization with cw lasers, is briefly discussed.     

Decongestion of methylene spectra in biological and non-biological systems using picosecond 2DIR spectroscopy measuring electron-vibration–vibration coupling

Methylene is found in the repeat units of many polymers including proteins. In some cases it appears to be a useful reporter of variation in local environment whilst in other contexts average behaviour seems to dominate. In this paper we apply a particular 2DIR technique to a range of systems containing methylene groups, showing that mode frequencies, linewidths and splittings can be easily extracted even when the infrared absorption bands are too congested to allow reliable analysis. 2DIR spectra of polyethylene and several liquid alkanes are compared and it is shown for the case of l-arginine that the methylene scissor modes are split and that this can be resolved by tracking the 2DIR spectrum as a function of time. Calculations from first principles reveal that for most of the methylene modes studied, electrical anharmonicity is the dominant contributor to the 2DIR cross-peak intensity, with the mechanical anharmonicity making only a small contribution.     

Study of the thermal decomposition of a sepiolite by mid- and near-infrared spectroscopies

Near-infrared (NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopies were used to characterize the hydroxyl groups present in a sepiolite and its calcination products at 250, 500 and 800 °C. Calcining the sepiolite at 250 °C was found to result in its dehydration through the loss of coordination water. Raising the calcination temperature to 500 °C caused the sepiolite structure to fold and hydroxyl groups in octahedral layers to be removed. Finally, calcination at 800 °C resulted in a phase change leading to enstatite, as confirmed by XRD spectroscopy.     

Terahertz Time‐Domain Spectroscopy of Gases,Liquids, and Solids

The techniques and methods employed in the spectroscopic characterization of gases, liquids, and solids in the terahertz frequency range are reviewed. Terahertz time‐domain spectroscopy is applied to address a broadband frequency range between 100 GHz and 5 THz with a sub‐10 GHz frequency resolution. The unique spectral absorption features measured can be efficiently used in material identification and sensing. Possibilities and limitations of fundamental and industrial applications are discussed.     

The Kinetic and Mechanistic Evaluation of NMR Spectra. New analytical methods (18)

In addition to the static parameters of the chemical shifts and coupling constants, which serve as a source of knowledge for molecular structure and stereochemistry, an NMR spectrum can frequently furnish dynamic quantities characterizing relaxation and exchange phenomena. The information about nuclear switching processes has proved to be particularly useful in practice for the detection of internal molecular motions and for the estimation or determination of the corresponding energy barriers. A plethora of studies of this nature has in the past been performed on simple proton spectra. Methodological developments of recent years have led to a significant reduction of the effort required for the quantitative dynamic evaluation of NMR spectra arising from complex spin systems or involving other nuclei. In many cases it has, moreover, become possible to extract detailed mechanistic information inaccessible by other means. The practical execution of such analyses will be explained and illustrated by a selected number of applications.     

Polarization Dependent Time-Resolved Infrared Spectroscopy and Its Applications

Polarization dependent time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectroscopy has proven to be a useful technique to study the structural dynamics in a photochemical process. The angular information of transient species is obtainable in this measurement, which makes it a valuable technique for the investigation of electron distribution, molecular structure, and conformational dynamics. In this review, we briefly introduce the principles and applications of polarization dependent TRIR spectroscopy. We mainly focused on the following topics: (i) an overview of TRIR spectroscopy, (ii) principles of TRIR spectroscopy and its advantages compared to the other ultrafast techniques, (iii) examples that use polarization dependent TRIR spectroscopy to probe a variety of chemical and dynamical phenomena including protein conformational dynamics, excited state electron localization, and photoisomerization, (iv) the limitations and prospects of TRIR spectroscopy.     

光电流谱、光致发光光谱和紫外可见吸收光谱在纳米半导体光电器件研究中的联用

在纳米半导体中由于纳米效应(如量子尺寸效应),其电子结构与块体半导体有所不同。进一步地,当纳米半导体与基底和其他组分结合制成器件后,其性质又受到基底或其他组分的影响,这两点导致了基于纳米半导体的光电器件的性能以及相应表征方法也大不相同。将光电流谱、光致发光光谱和紫外可见吸收光谱三种技术有机地结合起来,可以更好地表征纳米半导体的电子性质和光电性能。本文根据纳米半导体材料与电极的电子性质特点及其测量,结合本课题组前期工作,举例介绍三种谱学方法相结合应用于探究光伏电池和电致发光器件的纳米半导体材料的性能,以及纳米半导体材料表面态的表征。     

Identification of Triplet States in Carotenoids by Intracavity Absorption Spectroscopy and Measurements of Delayed Fluorescence

Owing to the low quantum yield of phosphorescence , triplet states of carotenoids have been very difficult to identify. These states can be characterized by intracavity absorption spectroscopy, which allows the direct measurement of the spin-forbidden singlet–triplet transitions in low concentrated solutions, and by delayed fluorescence measurements.
