Energies of the adsorption system of a Au atom on different sites are calculated. It is found that the most stable position is A site (top site) for the adsorbed Au atoms above the Si(001) surface.

Chemisorption of Fe on Au-passivated Si（001） surface

The chemisorption of one monolayer of Fe atoms on a Au-passivated Si(001) surface is studied by using the self-consistent tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital method. The Fe adatom chemisorption on an ideal Si(001) surface is also considered for comparison. The chemisorption energy and layer projected density of states for a monolayer of Fe atoms on Au-passivated Si(001) surface are calculated and compared with that of the Fe atoms on an ideal Si(001) surface. The charge transfer is investigated. It is found that the most stable position is at the fourfold hollow site for the adsorbed Fe atoms, which might sit below the Au surface. Therefore there will be a Au－Fe mixed layer at the Fe/Au－Si(100) interface. It is found that the adsorbed Fe atoms cannot sit below the Si surface, indicating that a buffer layer of Au atoms may hinder the intermixing of Fe atoms and Si atoms at the Fe/Au－Si(001) interface effectively, which is in agreement with the experimental results.

It is found that the adsorbed Ag atoms are more favorable on C site (fourfold site) than on any other sites on Si(1 0 0) surface, the polar covalent bond is formed between Ag atom and surface Si atom, a Ag and Si mixed layer does not exist and does form an abrupt interface at the Ag–Si(1 0 0) interface. This is in agreement with the experiment results. The layer-projected density of states is calculated and compared with that of the clean surface. The charge transfer is also investigated. Comparing with the Au/Si(1 0 0) system, the interaction is weaker between Ag and Si than between Au and Si.     

MoO_3/Si界面区钼掺杂非晶氧化硅层形成的第一性原理研究

采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理计算方法,通过模拟MoO_3/Si界面反应,研究了MoO_x薄膜沉积中原子、分子的吸附、扩散和成核过程,从原子尺度阐明了缓冲层钼掺杂非晶氧化硅(a-SiO_x(Mo))物质的形成和机理.结果表明,在1500 K温度下, MoO_3/Si界面区由Mo, O, Si三种原子混合,可形成新的稳定的物相.热蒸发沉积初始时, MoO_3中的两个O原子和Si成键更加稳定,同时伴随着电子从Si到O的转移,钝化了硅表面的悬挂键. MoO_3中氧空位的形成能小于SiO_2中氧空位的形成能,使得O原子容易从MoO_3中迁移至Si衬底一侧,从而形成氧化硅层;替位缺陷中, Si替位MoO_3中的Mo的形成能远远大于Mo替位SiO_2中的Si的形成能,使得Mo容易掺杂进入氧化硅中.因此,在晶硅(100)面上沉积MoO_3薄膜时, MoO_3中的O原子先与Si成键,形成氧化硅层,随后部分Mo原子替位氧化硅中的Si原子,最终形成含有钼掺杂的非晶氧化硅层.     

Adsorption of Fe on GaAs(100) Surface

The adsorption of one monolayer Fe atoms on an ideal GaAs (100) surface is studied by using the self-consistent tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital method. The Fe adatom chemisorption on Ga- and As-terminatedsurface are considered separately. A monolayer of S atoms is used to saturate the dangling bonds on one of the supercellsurfaces. Energies of adsorption systems of an Fe atom on different sites are calculated, and the charge transfers areinvestigated. It is found that Fe-As interaction is stronger than Fe-Ga interaction and Fe atoms prefer to be adsorbed onthe As-terminated surface. It is possible for the adsorbed Fe atoms to sit below the As-terminated surface resulting inan Fe-Ga-As mixed layer. The layer projected density states are calculated and compared with that of the clean surface.     

Theory of adsorption: Ordered monolayers from Na to Cl on Si(001) and Ge(001)

First principles calculations of clean and adsorbate-covered surfaces of Si(001) and Ge(001) are reported. Chemical trends in the adsorption of ordered Na, K, Ge, As, Sb, S, Se and Cl overlayers are discussed. The calculations are based on the local-density approximation and employ non-local, norm-conserving pseudopotentials together with Gaussian orbital basis sets. The semi-infinite geometry of the substrate is properly taken into account by employing our scattering theoretical method. From total-energy minimization calculations we obtain optimal surface reconstructions which show asymmetric dimers for Si(001), Ge(001) and Ge:Si(001). For As:Si(001), Sb:Si(001) and Sb:Ge(001), we find symmetric adatom dimers in the equilibrium geometries. S or Se adlayers are found to be adsorbed in bridge positions forming a (1×1) unit cell with a geometry very close to the configuration of a terminated bulk lattice. Cl atoms adsorb on top of the dangling bonds of symmetric Si dimers residing in the first substrate-surface layer. Our calculations for Na:Si(001) and K:Si(001) confirm valley-bridge site adsorption for half monolayer coverage. For full monolayer alkali-metal coverage, adsorption in pedestal and valley-bridge positions is found to be energetically most favourable. The calculated optimal adsorption configurations are in excellent agreement with a whole body of recent experimental data on surface-structure determination. For these structural models, we obtain electronic surface band structures which agree very good with a wealth of data from angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy investigations.

A STUDY ON ABSORPTION OF Na ATOMS ON Si(100) 2×1 SURFACES WITH DV-Xα METHOD

The Na absorption on Si(100) 2×1 surface is studied with quantum chemistry molecular cluster method. The calculated results show that the most favourable absorption site of Na is the cave site and the charge transfer of Na atom to Si is large when the Na coverage is smaller than 0.5 monolayer (ML). A Na chain is formed along the cave sites at the 0.5 ML Na coverage, the charge transfer then becomes small. The calculated density of states show that the Na atoms are metallic along the chain. At 1 ML coverage, the Na atoms occupy both the cave and pedestal sites and form a double-layer. There is a charge transfer of 0.5e from each Na atom to the Si surface. The calculated surface energy shows that the saturation absorption of Na on Si surface is 1 ML.

Predicting and researching adsorption configurations of pyridazine on Si(100) surface by means of X-ray spectroscopies in theory

The landscape of organic molecule on Si(100) surface has a great significance for organic functionalisation of Si semiconductor. Several possible adsorption configurations for pyridazine on Si(100) surface have been forecasted by systemic comparison and investigation. The C1s XPS and NEXAFS spectra of these adsorption systems based on density functional theory and full core-hole potential approximation have been calculated. Although the sensibility of XPS to these adsorption configurations is not very strong, these configurations can be absolutely distinguished by NEXAFS spectra, which will bring tremendous reference to the future experimental study. Mode II, III, V and VI have a significantly higher adsorption energy, which are most likely to be present in experiment. In addition, we have made the research on specific sources of the peaks in spectra by analysing their decomposed NEXAFS spectra, the results show that the Carbon atoms which do not bond to surface atoms, make the most contribute to the intensity of characteristic peaks in spectra.     

Photoelectron diffraction imaging for C2H2 and C2H4 chemisorbed on Si(100) reveals a new bonding configuration

A new adsorption site for adsorbed acetylene on Si(100) is observed by photoelectron imaging based on the holographic principle. The diffraction effects in the carbon 1s angle-resolved photoemission are inverted (including the small-cone method) to obtain an image of the atom's neighboring carbon. The chemisorbed acetylene molecule is bonded to four silicon surface atoms. In contrast to the C2H2 case, the image for adsorbed C2H4 shows it bonded to two Si surface atoms.     

硫在Fe(111)面吸附的密度泛函研究

采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理方法,系统研究了不同覆盖度下硫在Fe（111）表面的吸附构型和吸附特性,计算并分析了硫在Fe（111）表面的吸附能、电荷密度、分波态密度、电荷布局、电子局域化函数等数据. 研究结果表明：S在Fe（111）面的H位吸附最稳定,并且吸附能随着覆盖度的增加而增加. 另外,电子态密度、电子局域化函数和布局分析表明Fe、S之间呈较弱的共价键,这种作用力主要是Fe的3d轨道和S的2p轨道杂化所贡献,而随着覆盖度的增加,Fe、S之间的作用力逐渐减弱,这可能是由于S原子之间的排斥力减弱了Fe、S之间的作用. S在Fe（111）、Fe（110）和Fe（100）这三个晶面上吸附情况的对比分析发现,S与Fe（111）表面的相互作用最强,Fe（100）面次之,而Fe（110）面最弱.     

Magnetic and electronic properties of Cr,Mn, and Fe adatoms on Si(001): A first-principles study

The magnetic and electronic properties of TM (TM=Cr, Mn, and Fe) adatoms adsorption on Si(001) surface are studied by means of the first-principles method. For the adsorption of a single TM atom on Si(001), we obtain decreasing spin moments and increasing adsorption energies as TM varies from Cr to Fe. In the case of TM dimers adsorption, the calculated results show that the spin coupling changes from antiferromagnetic (AFM) to ferromagnetic (FM) as the 3d electrons increased. AFM coupling is found to be preferred for Cr, while FM coupling is energetically favorable for Mn and Fe. In the case of TM wires, we find that the FM state is energetically preferred for Mn and Fe atoms on the Si(001) surface, while for Cr wires, the up–down–up state for P–M–M site Cr atoms seems to be more energy favorable. We also find that the silicon surfaces become metallic for the adsorption of TM wires.

S的吸附对镍基合金825中Cr原子的电子分布影响不大,且合金中Cr和Ni抑制了合金中Fe与S之间的相互作用,从而提高了合金耐蚀性.     

First-principles study of carbon atoms adsorbed on MgO(100) related to graphene growth

We have performed density functional theory calculations to understand the initial growth of graphene by studying the adsorption of carbon atoms on the oxide substrates such as magnesium oxide. For adsorption behaviors of carbon atoms on the MgO(100) surface, their adsorption geometries and binding energies are calculated. The binding of a carbon atom is the most stable at the on-top oxygen site on MgO(100). Such strong C–O binding is analyzed by examining the projected density of states. Then, we also increase the number of carbon atoms on MgO(100) to investigate their adsorption behaviors. Due to strong binding between carbon atoms, adsorbed carbon atoms form chain-like or graphene-like structures on the surface. Combined with relatively strong C–O binding, this result may explain the graphene growth on MgO(100) observed in available experiments.
