The combination of chemical-state-specific C 1s scanned-energy mode photoelectron diffraction (PhD) and O K-edge near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) has been used to determine the local adsorption geometry of the coadsorbed C3H3 and CO species formed on Pd(1 1 1) by dissociation of molecular furan. CO is found to adopt the same geometry as in the Pd(1 1 1)c(4 × 2)-CO phase, occupying the two inequivalent three-fold coordinated hollow sites with the C–O axis perpendicular to the surface. C3H3 is found to lie with its molecular plane almost parallel to the surface, most probably with the two ‘outer’ C atoms in equivalent off-atop sites, although the PhD analysis formally fails to distinguish between two distinct local adsorption sites.  相似文献

We have performed a detailed study of the formation and the atomic structure of a √3 × √3 surface on Si/Ge(1 1 1) using both scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED). Both experimental methods confirm the presence of a √3 × √3 periodicity but unlike the Sn/Ge(1 1 1) and the Sn/Si(1 1 1) surfaces, the Si/Ge(1 1 1) surface is not well ordered. There is no long range order on the surface and the √3 × √3 reconstruction is made up of double rows of silicon atoms separated by disordered areas composed of germanium atoms.  相似文献

The growth of V2O3(0 0 0 1) has been investigated by scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Direct evaporation of vanadium onto the Si(1 1 1)-7 × 7 substrate gives rise to massive surface intermixing and consequent silicide formation. In order to obtain the vanadium oxide with good quality, the 7 × 7 surface was initially partially oxidized which leads to a smooth oxygen–silicon surface layer which in turn prevents a complete vanadium–silicon alloy formation. Finally a vanadium oxide film of V2O3 stoichiometry was created. The grown film exposes single crystalline areas of stepped surfaces which appear azimuthally randomly-oriented.  相似文献

Atomic resolution scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) has been used to study in situ the As-terminated reconstructions formed on GaAs(0 0 1) surfaces in the presence of an As4 flux. The relationship between the As-rich (2 × 4) and c(4 × 4) surfaces is observed throughout the gradual evolution of the reconstruction transformation. The results suggest that during the initial stage of the transformation, Ga-rich As-terminated variations of the c(4 × 4) form in order to accommodate excess mobile Ga produced by pit formation. These transient structures later planarize, as excess Ga is incorporated at step/island edges. Successive imaging of the same sample area during As4 irradiation allows point-by-point adatom binding to be analysed in a way inaccessible to MBE–STM systems relying on sample quenching and transfer.  相似文献

The adsorption of methanol on Ni3Al(1 1 1) and NiAl(1 1 0) has been studied using high resolution photoemission spectroscopy (HR-PES) and density functional theory (DFT). Both methanol and methoxy are formed on these surfaces after the initial methanol exposure at low temperatures. Heating to 200 K leads to further formation of methoxy. On NiAl(1 1 0) two different methoxy species are observed where the first is formed upon methanol adsorption, and the other results from methanol decomposition during heating. The DFT calculations show that methanol and methoxy interacts with the Al atoms on both surfaces. Methanol is found to bond through the oxygen atom to the Al on-top site on Ni3Al(1 1 1) and NiAl(1 1 0) with the C–O axis tilted with respect to the surface normal. On Ni3Al(1 1 1) methoxy is situated in a 2Ni+Al hollow site, whereas on NiAl(1 1 0) the Al–Al bridge site is preferred.  相似文献

We study the dynamics of HD and H2 molecules interacting with Pd(1 1 1) and Cu(1 1 0) using the classical trajectory method based on potential energy surfaces obtained from Density Functional Theory calculations. Our results predict a negligible isotopic effect on the dissociative adsorption probability on Pd(1 1 1) whereas on Cu(1 1 0), the adsorption probability for HD(νi=0) is slightly lower than for H2(νi=0), mainly due to its lower initial vibrational zero point energy. The final rotational energy distribution of scattered HD and H2 molecules are very similar. This shows that the asymmetric mass distribution of HD, barely affects the fraction of initial translational energy transferred to rotation during the scattering process. Our calculations point to the larger number of open rotational excitation channels for HD, as the main cause of rotational excitation probabilities larger than for H2. The theoretical apparent rotational temperature, Trot, of HD molecules scattered from Pd(1 1 1) at impact energy , is in good agreement with the experimental value. In contrast, for Cu(1 1 0) the theoretical Trot is much lower than the value measured for Cu(1 0 0). Possible reasons for such a discrepancy between theory and experiments are discussed.  相似文献

The adsorption of methanol and methoxy on NiAl(1 1 0) and Ni3Al(1 1 1) has been investigated using density functional theory (DFT). Optimised adsorption geometries and core level shifts are presented. On both surfaces we find that methanol binds to the Al on-top site via its oxygen atom and with the C–O axis tilted away from the surface normal. Methoxy also shows a preference for Al-dominated sites. On NiAl(1 1 0), we predict that methoxy adsorbs with its oxygen atom in the Al–Al bridge site, while it is determined to be adsorbed with its oxygen atom in a 2Ni + Al hollow site on Ni3Al(1 1 1), closer to Al than Ni. Surface and adsorbate induced binding energy shifts in the Al 2p states are calculated and found to be in good agreement with experimental high resolution photoelectron spectroscopy results.  相似文献

The adsorption and reaction of methyl lactate (CH3CH(OH)COOCH3) is studied in ultrahigh vacuum on a Pd(1 1 1) surface using temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and reflection–absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS). Methyl lactate reacts at relatively low temperatures (220 K) by O–H bond scission. This intermediate can either react with hydrogen to reform methyl lactate at 280–300 K or undergo β-hydride elimination to form flat-lying methyl pyruvate. This decomposes to form acetyl and methoxy carbonyl species as found previously following methyl pyruvate adsorption on Pd(1 1 1). These species predominantly react to form carbon monoxide, methane and hydrogen.  相似文献

Theoretical calculations focused on the geometry, stability, electronic and magnetic properties of small palladium clusters Pdn (n=1–5) adsorbed on the NiAl(1 1 0) alloy surface were carried out within the framework of density functional theory (DFT). In agreement with the experimental observations, both Ni-bridge and Al-bridge sites are preferential for the adsorption of single palladium atom, with an adsorption energy difference of 0.04 eV. Among the possible structures considered for Pdn (n=1–5) clusters adsorbed on NiAl(1 1 0) surface, Pd atoms tend to form one-dimensional (1D) chain structure at low coverage (from Pd1 to Pd3) and two-dimensional (2D) structures are more stable than three-dimensional (3D) structures for Pd4 and Pd5. Furthermore, metal-substrate bonding prevails over metal–metal bonding for Pd cluster adsorbed on NiAl(1 1 0) surface. The density of states for Pd atoms of Pd/NiAl(1 1 0) system are strongly affected by their chemical environment. The magnetic feature emerged upon the adsorption of Pd clusters on NiAl(1 1 0) surface was due to the charge transfer between Pd atoms and the substrate. These findings may shade light on the understanding of the growth of Pd metal clusters on alloy surface and the construction of nanoscale devices.  相似文献

The formation, stability and CO adsorption properties of PdAg/Pd(1 1 1) surface alloys were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and by adsorption of CO probe molecules, which was characterized by temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS). The PdAg/Pd(1 1 1) surface alloys were prepared by annealing (partly) Ag film covered Pd(1 1 1) surfaces, where the Ag films were deposited at room temperature. Surface alloy formation leads to a modification of the electronic properties, evidenced by core-level shifts (CLSs) of both the Pd(3d) and Ag(3d) signal, with the extent of the CLSs depending on both initial Ag coverage and annealing temperature. The role of Ag pre-coverage and annealing temperature on surface alloy formation is elucidated. For a monolayer Ag covered Pd(1 1 1) surface, surface alloy formation starts at ∼450 K, and the resulting surface alloy is stable upon annealing at temperatures between 600 and 800 K. CO TPD and HREELS measurements demonstrate that at 120 K CO is exclusively adsorbed on Pd surface atoms/Pd sites of the bimetallic surfaces, and that the CO adsorption behavior is dominated by geometric ensemble effects, with adsorption on threefold hollow Pd3 sites being more stable than on Pd2 bridge sites and finally Pd1 a-top sites.  相似文献

Basing on the results of the scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) observations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the structural model for the Cu magic clusters formed on Si(1 1 1)7 × 7 surface has been proposed. Using STM, composition of the Cu magic clusters has been evaluated from the quantitative analysis of the Cu and Si mass transport occurring during magic cluster converting into the Si(1 1 1)‘5.5 × 5.5’-Cu reconstruction upon annealing. Evaluation yields that Cu magic cluster accommodates 20 Cu atoms with 20 Si atoms being expelled from the corresponding 7 × 7 half unit cell (HUC). In order to fit these values, it has been suggested that the Cu magic clusters resemble fragments of the Cu2Si-silicide monolayer incorporated into the rest-atom layer of the Si(1 1 1)7 × 7 HUCs. Using DFT calculations, stability of the nineteen models has been tested of which five models appeared to have formation energies lower than that of the original Si(1 1 1)7 × 7 surface. The three of five models having the lowest formation energies have been concluded to be the most plausible ones. They resemble well the evaluated composition and their counterparts are found in the experimental STM images.  相似文献

Density-functional theory was presented to investigate the hydrogen dissociation on a pure, Pt-doped, vacancy and oxide Mg(0 0 0 1) surface. Our results show that the energy barriers are 1.05, 0.39, 0.93 and 1.33 eV for H2 dissociation on the pure, Pt-doped, vacancy and oxide Mg surface, respectively. The calculation results imply that the initial dissociation of H2 is enhanced significantly for the Pt-doped Mg(0 0 0 1) surface, negligible for the vacancy model and weekend for the oxide model. The density of state results shows that, following the dissociation reaction coordinate, the H–H interactions are weeker for the Pt-doped model while interactions become stronger for the oxide model. It is suggested that the dissociation process is facilitated when Pt atom acts as catalyst and oxide overlayers delay hydrogen adsorption on the Mg layer. The present study will help us understand the defect role being played for the improvement or opposition effect in absorption kinetics of H2 on the Mg(0 0 0 1) surface.  相似文献

In this work, we report density functional theory calculations exploring H2S dissociation on the (1 1 1) surfaces of Pd, Cu, Ag, Au, and various bimetallic surfaces consisting of those metals. To understand the contributions of lattice strain and electronic ligand effects, the thermodynamics of each elementary dissociation step were explored on model bimetallic surfaces, including PdMPd sandwiches and Pd pseudomorphic overlayers, as well as strained Pd(1 1 1) surfaces and homogeneous Pd3M alloys. Sulfuric (H2S, SH, and S) adsorption energies were found to correlate very well with lattice constant, which can be explained by the strong correlation of the lattice constant with d-band center, Fermi energy, and density of states at the Fermi level for strained Pd(1 1 1) surfaces. Compressing the Pd lattice shifts the d-band center away from the Fermi level, lowers the Fermi energy, and reduces the density of d-states at the Fermi level. All three effects likely contribute to the destabilization of sulfuric adsorption on Pd alloys. Introducing ligand effects was found to alter the distribution of the d-states and shift the Fermi level, which eliminates the correlation of the d-band center with the density of states at the Fermi level and the Fermi energy. As a result, the d-band center by itself is a poor metric of the H2S reaction energetics for bimetallic surfaces. Furthermore, combining strain with ligand effects was found to lead to unpredictable alterations of the d-band. Therefore, adsorption of H2S, SH, and S on PdMPd surfaces do not accurately predict adsorption on Pd3M surfaces.  相似文献

Ab initio calculations, based on pseudopotentials and density functional theory, have been performed to investigate the atomic and electronic structure of the group-IV adsorbates (C, Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb) on the GaAs(0 0 1)-(1 × 2) surface considered in two different models: (i) non-segregated Ga-IV-capped structure and (ii) segregated structure in which the group-IV atoms occupying the second layer while the As atom floats to the surface. The non-segregated structure is energetically more favorable than the segregated structure for Sn and Pb, whereas it is the other way around for C, Si, and Ge.  相似文献

Adsorption strengths of hydrogen and sulfur both individually and together as co-adsorbates were investigated on Pt(1 1 1), Ni(1 1 1) and Pt3Ni(1 1 1) surfaces using density functional theory in order to determine the effect of metal alloying on sulfur tolerance. The adsorption strengths of H and S singly follow the same trend: Ni(1 1 1) > Pt(1 1 1) > Pt3Ni(1 1 1), which correlates well with the respective d-band center positions of each surface. We find that the main effect of alloying is to distort both the sub-layer structure and the Pt overlayer resulting in a lowered d-band. For all three surfaces, the d-band shifts downward non-linearly as a function of S coverage. Nearly identical decreases in d-band position were calculated for each surface, leading to an expectation that subsequent adsorption of H would scale with surface type similarly to single species adsorption. In contradiction to this expectation, there was no clearly discernable difference between the energies of coadsorbed H on Pt(1 1 1) and Ni(1 1 1) and only a slightly lowered energy on Pt3Ni(1 1 1). This provides evidence that coadsorbed species in close proximity interact directly through itinerant mobile electrons and through electrostatic repulsion rather than solely through the electronic structure of the surface. The combination of the lowered d-band position (arising from distorted geometry) and direct co-adsorbate interactions on Pt3Ni(1 1 1) leads to a lower energy barrier for H2S formation on the surface compared to pure Pt(1 1 1). Thus, alloying Pt with Ni both decreases the likelihood of S adsorption and favors S removal through H2S formation.  相似文献

We studied adsorption of pyridine on Si(1 0 0) at room temperature using high resolution photoemission spectroscopy (PES) and near edge X-ray adsorption fine structure (NEXAFS) in the partial electron yield (PEY) mode. The Si 2p, C 1s, N 1s spectra of pyridine on Si(1 0 0) showed that pyridine is chemisorbed on Si(1 0 0)-2 × 1 through the formation of the tetra-σ-bonded structure with the N atom and three C atoms. NEXAFS was conducted to characterize the adsorption geometry of pyridine on Si(1 0 0). The π* orbital of CC bond showed a good angle dependence in C K-edge NEXAFS spectra, and we were able to estimate the adsorption angle between chemisorbed pyridine of CC bond and the Si(1 0 0) surface using an analytical solution of NEXAFS intensity. We find the coexistence of two different tight bridges with the adsorption angles 42 ± 2° and 45 ± 2° with almost equal abundance.  相似文献

Self-assembling of isoelectronic C and Sn impurities in Ge is predicted. The formation of the 1C4Sn tetrahedral cells is thermodynamically profitable in Ge-rich CxSnyGe1−x−y (4x<y) alloys in the ultra dilute C impurity limit with 1×10-8x1×10-3. The concentrations of Sn atoms when all C atoms are surrounded only by Sn atoms are estimated for the lower molecular beam epitaxy, intermediate annealing and higher bulk crystallization temperatures. The origin of this phenomenon is a considerable decrease of the strain energy after self-assembling. The same self-assembling in Si is thermodynamically non-profitable due to the large cohesive energy of Si–C chemical bonds.  相似文献

The couple sulfonato/Si(1 1 1)-7 × 7 leads to remarkable 2D chiral molecular assembly with a stability improved at room temperature. The voltage-dependency of the STM images has been experimentally investigated and the correlation between STM images and PDOS has been studied. The proposed empirical model of the adsorption of molecules on Si(1 1 1)-7 × 7 has been justified by the experimental and theoretical data.  相似文献

The dissociative sticking probability for H2 on Pd films supported on sputtered Highly Ordered Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) has been derived from measurements of the rate of the H–D exchange reaction at 1 bar. The sticking probability for H2, S, is higher on Pd hydride than on Pd (a factor of 1.4 at 140 °C), but the apparent desorption energy derived from S is the same on Pd and Pd hydride within the uncertainty of the experiment. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations for the (1 1 1) surfaces of Pd and Pd hydride show that, at a surface H coverage of a full mono layer, H binds less strongly to Pd hydride than to Pd. The activation barrier for desorption at a H coverage of one mono layer is slightly lower on Pd hydride, whereas the activation energy for adsorption is similar on Pd and Pd hydride. It is concluded that the higher sticking probability on Pd hydride is most likely caused by a slightly lower equilibrium coverage of H, which is a consequence of the lower heat of adsorption for H on Pd hydride.  相似文献

Monte-Carlo (MC) simulation is used to study the role of adsorption of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon monoxide (CO) on the surface composition and surface bond geometry of Pd–Cu nanoparticles. For clean particles the surface is found to be enriched in Cu. But in the presence of adsorbed hydrogen and CO there is a segregation reversal from Cu segregation at low coverage to Pd segregation at high coverage. In the presence of adsorbed oxygen, on the contrary, the extent of Cu segregation increases with coverage. For a 586-atom nanoparticle with 50% Pd in the bulk the corner sites are found to be occupied by Cu atoms up to one monolayer adsorption. But, while the occupancy of 7, 8 and 9-coordinated sites by Cu atoms decreases with increase of H and CO coverage, for oxygen adsorption this occupancy increases with coverage. The relevance of such results in catalysis studies is discussed.  相似文献
