Density functional calculations for Ni adsorption on Al(1 1 0)

The adsorption of 0.25, 0.5 and 1 monolayer (ML) of the transition metal Ni on the metal substrate Al(1 1 0) was studied using first-principles calculations at the level of density functional theory. The metal–metal system was analyzed with the generalized gradient approximation. Four stable atomic configurations were considered, and the optimized geometries and adsorption energies of different Ni adsorption sites on the Al(1 1 0) surface at selected levels of coverage were calculated and compared. The four-fold hollow site was determined to be the most stable adsorption site with adsorption energy of 5.101 eV at 0.25 ML, 3.874 eV at 0.5 ML and 3.665 eV at 1 ML. The adsorption energies of the four sites slightly decreased as the Ni coverage increased. Work function analysis showed that when Ni is adsorbed on the Al(1 1 0) surface, the work function decreased as the coverage increased due to depolarization. The Mulliken population and density of states were calculated to determine the charge distribution of the adsorption site, confirming that a chemisorption interaction exists between the adsorbed Ni atom and Al(1 1 0) surface atoms.     

O在Au(111)表面吸附的密度泛函理论研究

应用密度泛函理论，本文系统地研究了O在Au(111)表面上的吸附能、吸附结构、功函数、电子密度和投影态密度，给出了覆盖度从0.11ML到1.0ML的范围内，O的吸附特性随覆盖度变化的规律.研究发现O的稳定吸附位为3重面心立方(fcc)洞位，O在fcc洞位的吸附能对覆盖度比较敏感，其值随着覆盖度的增加而减小；O诱导Au(111)表面功函数的变化量与覆盖度成近线性关系，原因是Au表面电子向O偏移，形成表面偶极子；O—Au的相互作用形成成键态和反键态，且反键态都被占据，造成O—Au键很弱，O吸附能较小. 关键词： 表面吸附 Au(111)表面 密度泛函理论 电子特性     

Density functional and dynamics study of the dissociative adsorption of hydrogen on Mg (0 0 0 1) surface

A first principles study is performed to investigate the adsorption characteristics of hydrogen on magnesium surface. Substitutional and on-surface adsorption energies are calculated for Mg (0 0 0 1) surface alloyed with the selected elements. To further analyze the hydrogen-magnesium interaction, first principles molecular dynamics method is used which simulates the behavior of H₂ at the surface. Also, charge density differences of substitutionally doped surface configurations were illustrated. Accordingly, Mo and Ni are among the elements yielding lower adsorption energies, which are found to be −9.2626 and −5.2995 eV for substitutionally alloyed surfaces, respectively. In light of the dynamic calculations, Co as an alloying element is found to have a splitting effect on H₂ in 50 fs, where the first hydrogen atom is taken inside the Mg substrate right after the decomposition and the other after 1300 fs. An interesting remark is that, elements which acquire higher chances of adsorption are also seen to be competent at dissociating the hydrogen molecule. Furthermore, charge density distributions support the results of molecular dynamics simulations, by verifying the distinguished effects of most of the 3d and 4d transition metals.     

甲基和羟基在Ir(111)表面吸附的密度泛函理论研究

在超原胞近似和slab模型基础上,采用周期性密度泛函理论,在0.11覆盖度（ML）下,对甲基与羟基在Ir(111)表面的吸附进行了研究,得到了甲基和羟基在Ir(111)表面不同吸附位置的吸附能和吸附构型,计算了它们的振动频率,同时分析了甲基和羟基共吸附于Ir(111)表面的情况。结果表明,甲基和羟基在Ir(111)表面的最稳定吸附位置都是top位,甲基是碳端向下吸附,羟基是通过氧端向下倾斜吸附。通过频率分析发现吸附后CH3中C-H键的对称伸缩振动、反对称伸缩振动以及剪切振动频率均发生了红移,而羟基中的O-H键的振动频率发生蓝移现象。通过计算对比发现甲醇分解为甲基和羟基过程是一个放热反应,从热力学角度来说该反应是可行的。

Density functional study of the adsorption of aspirin on the hydroxylated (0 0 1) -quartz surface

In this study the adsorption geometry of aspirin molecule on a hydroxylated (0 0 1) α-quartz surface has been investigated using DFT calculations. The optimized adsorption geometry indicates that both, adsorbed molecule and substrate are strongly deformed. Strong hydrogen bonding between aspirin and surface hydroxyls, leads to the breaking of the original hydroxyl–hydroxyl hydrogen bonds (Hydrogenbridges) on the surface. In this case new hydrogen bonds on the hydroxylated (0 0 1) α-quartz surface appear which significantly differ from those at the clean surface. The 1.11 eV adsorption energy reveals that the interaction of aspirin with α-quartz is an exothermic chemical interaction.     

Oxygen adatoms at SrTiO3(0 0 1): A density-functional theory study

We present a density-functional theory study addressing the energetics and electronic structure properties of isolated oxygen adatoms at the SrTiO₃(0 0 1) surface. Together with a surface lattice oxygen atom, the adsorbate is found to form a peroxide-type molecular species. This gives rise to a non-trivial topology of the potential energy surface for lateral adatom motion, with the most stable adsorption site not corresponding to the one expected from a continuation of the perovskite lattice. With computed modest diffusion barriers below 1 eV, it is rather the overall too weak binding at both regular SrTiO₃(0 0 1) terminations that could be a critical factor for oxide film growth applications.     

Rh在单壁碳纳米管上吸附的密度泛函理论研究

本文利用密度泛函理论研究了Rh原子在（6,6）单壁碳纳米管内外的吸附行为. 通过对Rh在单壁碳纳米管上不同吸附位的吸附构型与吸附能的研究发现: Rh吸附在管内、外的洞位最稳定, 且管外吸附比在管内强. 这是由于单壁碳纳米管的卷曲效应使得管外电荷密度比管内大造成的. 态密度分析表明, 吸附在管内外的Rh原子的5s电子均转移到了4d轨道上; Rh原子4d轨道上的电子转移到了（6, 6）碳管上, 使Rh带正电, 碳管带负电. 结合能带分析表明, Rh原子吸附在管内磁性较弱, 而吸附在管外较强. 关键词： 密度泛函理论 单壁碳纳米管 Rh原子 吸附     

Density functional theory investigation of carbon monoxide adsorption on the kaolinite(001) surface

Carbon monoxide(CO) is a gaseous pollutant with adverse effects on human health and the environment. Kaolinite is a natural mineral resource that can be used for different applications, including that it can also be used for retention of pollutant gases. The adsorption behavior of carbon monoxide molecules on the(001) surface of kaolinite was studied systematically by using density-functional theory and supercell models for a range coverage from 0.11 to 1.0 monolayers(ML). The CO adsorbed on the three-fold hollow, two-fold bridge, and one-fold top sites of the kaolinite(001) was tilted with respect to the surface. The strongest adsorbed site of carbon monoxide on the kaolinite(001) surface is the hollow site followed by the bridge and top site. The adsorption energy of CO decreased when increasing the coverage, thus indicating the lower stability of surface adsorption due to the repulsion of neighboring CO molecules. In addition to the adsorption structures and energetics, the lattice relaxation, the electronic density of states, and the different charge distribution have been investigated for different surface coverages.     

Reaction mechanism for CO oxidation on Cu(3 1 1): A density functional theory study

The microscopic reaction mechanism for CO oxidation on Cu(3 1 1) surface has been investigated by means of comprehensive density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The elementary steps studied include O₂ adsorption and dissociation, dissociated O atom adsorption and diffusion, as well as CO adsorption and oxidation on the metal. Our results reveal that O₂ is considerably reactive on the Cu(3 1 1) surface and will spontaneously dissociate at several adsorption states, which process are highly dependent on the orientation and site of the adsorbed oxygen molecule. The dissociated O atom may likely diffuse via inner terrace sites or from a terrace site to a step site due to the low barriers. Furthermore, we find that the energetically most favorable site for CO molecule on Cu(3 1 1) is the step edge site. According to our calculations, the reaction barrier of CO + O → CO₂ is about 0.3 eV lower in energy than that of CO + O₂ → CO₂ + O, suggesting the former mechanism play a main role in CO oxidation on the Cu(3 1 1) surface.     

Density functional theory study of selenium adsorption on Fe(1 1 0)

The adsorption of atomic Se on a Fe(1 1 0) surface is examined using the density functional theory (DFT). Selenium is adsorbed in high-symmetry adsorption sites: the -short and long-bridge, and atop sites at 1/2, 1/4, and 1 monolayer (ML) coverages. The long bridge (LB) site is found to be the most stable, followed by the short bridge (SB) and top sites (T). The following overlayer structures were examined, p(2 × 2), c(2 × 2), and p(1 × 1), which correspond to 1/4 ML, 1/2 ML, and 1 ML respectively. Adsorption energy is −5.23 eV at 1/4 ML. Se adsorption results in surface reconstruction, being more extensive for adsorption in the long bridge site at 1/2 ML, with vertical displacements between +8.63 and −6.69% -with regard to the original Fe position-, affecting the 1st and 2nd neighbours. The largest displacement in x or y-directions was determined to be 0.011, 0.030, and 0.021 Å for atop and bridge sites. Comparisons between Se-adsorbed and pure Fe surfaces revealed reductions in the magnetic moments of surface-layer Fe atoms in the vicinity of the Se. At the long bridge site, the presence of Se causes a decrease in the surface Fe d-orbital density of states between 4 and 5 eV below Fermi level. The density of states present a contribution of Se states at −3.1 eV and −12.9 eV. stabilized after adsorption. The Fe-Fe overlap population decrease and a Fe-Se bond are formed at the expense of the metallic bond.     

Density functional study of the cysteine adsorption on Au nanoclusters

The adsorption of the cysteine amino acid (H–SC_βH₂–C_αH–NH₂–COOH) on the Au₅₅ cluster is investigated through density functional theory calculations. Two isomers, with icosahedral (I_h) and chiral (C₁) geometries, of the Au₅₅ cluster are used to calculate the adsorption energy of the cysteine on different facets of these isomers. Results, only involving the S(thiolate)-Au bonding show that the higher adsorption energies are obtained when the sulfur atom is bonded to an asymmetrical bridge site at the facet containing Au atoms with the lowest coordination of the C₁ cluster isomer.

CO adsorption on Au(3 1 0) and Au(3 2 1): 6-Fold coordinated gold atoms

The adsorption of CO on Au(3 1 0) and Au(3 2 1) was studied using a combination of thermal desorption spectroscopy and high resolution core level photoemission spectroscopy. These vicinal Au surfaces both have 6-fold coordinated atoms at the step edges but have a different terrace structure. The CO adsorption behavior was found to be very similar for both surfaces. Three different desorption peaks due to chemisorbed CO were identified, which desorb around 100 K(α), 120 K(β) and 180 K(γ), respectively. The C1s and O1s spectra of the chemisorbed CO show a complex shake-up structure. Our experimental results indicate that CO only adsorbs on the step atoms. The different desorption peaks are explained by substrate-mediated long-range interactions between the adsorbates. Comparison with literature results shows that the CO adsorption energy is not only dependent on the coordination number of the Au atoms, but that the exact geometrical structure of the surface also plays a role.

基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理计算,对过渡金属Ni晶体与Ni (111)表面的结构和电子性质进行了研究, 并探讨了单个C原子在过渡金属Ni (111)表面的吸附以及两个C原子在Ni(111)表面的共吸附. 能带和态密度计算表明, Ni晶体及Ni (111)表面在费米面处均存在显著的电子自旋极化. 通过比较Ni (111)表面各位点的吸附能,发现单个C原子在该表面最稳定的吸附位置为第二层Ni原子上方所在的六角密排洞位, 吸附的第二个C原子与它形成碳二聚物时最稳定吸附位为第三层Ni原子上方所在的面心立方洞位. 电荷分析表明,共吸附时从每个C原子上各有1.566e电荷转移至相邻的Ni原子, 与单个C原子吸附时C与Ni原子间的电荷转移量(1.68e)相当. 计算发现两个C原子共吸附时在六角密排洞位和面心立方洞位的磁矩分别为0.059μ_B和 0.060μ_B,其值略大于单个C原子吸附时所具有的磁矩(0.017μ_B).     

Cobaltocene adsorption and dissociation on Cu(1 1 1)

Photoemission results indicate that the initial adsorption of cobaltocene on Cu(1 1 1) at 150 K leads to molecular fragmentation, but with subsequent cobaltocene exposures, molecular absorption occurs. The molecularly adsorbed species is either adsorbed with only a fraction of molecules adopting a preferential orientation along the surface normal or adsorbed with the molecular axis away from the surface normal. This adsorption behavior is compared to nickelocene and ferrocene adsorption.     

Density functional theory study of the adsorption of oxygen atoms on gold (111), (100) and (211) surfaces

The interaction of an oxygen atom with various gold surfaces was examined computationally using density functional theory. The relative binding energies for a range of possible adatom locations on each surface were obtained. The results demonstrated the relative importance of low-coordinated gold atoms to bind oxygen for a particular surface and a preference for three-fold adatom coordination over the two-fold and single-coordination sites. Pseudo-potential energy curves were obtained by following the calculated energy as a function of surface position. These general results provide a reference for the interaction of oxygen atoms with gold nanoparticles that may project faces similar to the surfaces studied here.     

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3p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.
