MoSi_2(001)表面的氧吸附行为

运用第一原理密度泛函理论方法,首先计算了MoSi_2各清洁表面的表面能,(001)Si-|-Si断面具有较低的表面能,是MoSi_2最可能的解理面;通过生成能及键布居分析研究了单氧原子、双氧原子及氧分子在(001)Si-|-Si断面的吸附行为,发现单氧原子在空位处吸附最稳定,此时O极易与Si结合,得到的Si-O-Si键长及键角与SiO_2的非常接近,表明低浓度下O极易与表面的Si结合生成SiO_2;双氧原子发生空位+顶位吸附时O原子除与Si有强作用外,可与Mo有一定相互作用;氧分子以平行的方式接近空位最有利于吸附,此时氧分子最易分解为氧原子,发生氧原子在空位的吸附.     

Influence of Pb adatom on adsorption of oxygen molecules on Pb(111) surface: a first-principles study

Using first-principles calculations, we systematically study the influence of Pb adatom on the adsorption and the dissociation of oxygen molecules on Pb(111) surface, to explore the effect of a point defect on the oxidation of the Pb(111) surface. We find that when an oxygen molecule is adsorbed near an adatom on the Pb surface, the molecule will be dissociated without any obvious barriers, and the dissociated O atoms bond with both the adatom and the surface Pb atoms. The adsorption energy in this situation is much larger than that on a clean Pb surface. Besides, for an adsorbed oxygen molecule on a clean Pb surface, a diffusing Pb adatom can also change its adsorption state and enlarge the adsorption energy for O, but it does not make the oxygen molecule dissociated. And in this situation, there is a molecule-like PbO2 cluster formed on the Pb surface.     

CO吸附和加氢反应过程的原位高压MAS NMR研究

应用原位变温高压MAS核磁共振技术,对比研究了CO在不同Rh基催化剂上的吸附和加氢反应过程. ²⁹Si MAS NMR研究结果表明：Rh基催化剂中加入金属助剂后,载体Silicate-1上的表面硅羟基减少,助剂金属与硅羟基作用锚锭在载体表面.¹³C MAS NMR研究结果表明：当引入CO/H2混合气后,在Rh/Silicate-1催化剂上只能观测到气相CO、线式吸附CO和孪式吸附CO的快速交换信号;而在Rh-Mn/Silicate-1和Rh-Mn-Li/Silicate-1催化剂上,还观测到了倾斜式吸附的CO共振信号,表明助剂Mn或Mn-Li的加入促进了CO的吸附. 随着反应温度升高,CO/H₂在Rh/Silicate-1催化剂上转化生成CO_²,进一步升高温度会有CH₄生成;而CO/H₂在RhMnLi/Silicate-1催化剂上反应活性更高,在较低的温度下就会转化生成CO₂,但未观测到甲烷的生成. ¹H MAS NMR 谱显示,反应后载体Silicate-1上硅羟基的量会减少,表明CO与载体部分表面硅羟基反应生成了CO₂.     

Electronic and mechanical properties of ZnS nanowires with different surface adsorptions

We investigate the energetic, electronic, and mechanical properties of the pristine, hydrogen, and water adsorbed ZnS nanowires using the all-electron density functional theory. We found that water adsorption is energetically favorable and makes the band gap change from indirect to direct for the smallest nanowire. The Young's moduli of the pristine and water adsorbed nanowires are larger, but those of the hydrogen adsorption nanowires are smaller than that of bulk ZnS. The physical origin of the different tendencies can be attributed to the different surface relaxations of three kinds of ZnS nanowires.     

Adsorption-controlled transition of the electrical properties realized in Hematite（alpha-Fe2O3） nanorods ethanol sensing

Alpha-Fe2O3 nanorods are synthesized through a hydrothermal method with no surfactant introduced and ethanol sensors are fabricated from these nanorods.The device can respond to ethanol vapour in a concentration range from 1 to 1500 parts per million and shows both p-type and n-type responding characteristics during the investigation of the ethanol sensing.The sensor displays a p-type characteristic when the ethanol concentration is low and converted into an n-type characteristic as the concentration exceeds a certain value.Such a phenomenon is attributed to the chemisorbed oxygen,which leads to different modifications of the energy band at the surface,namely,depletion layer or inversion layer.     

O2在Mo(001)表面吸附的第一原理研究

接枝聚合物对小分子的选择性吸附研究

文章应用密度泛函理论研究接枝于壁面的方阱链对二元小分子混合物的选择性吸附特性. 系统的Helmholtz剩余自由能泛函被表示为硬球排斥和方阱吸引两部分贡献之和,分别由硬球链流体状态方程和变阱宽方阱链流体状态方程的简单加权密度近似来进行计算. 用此理论方法,分别考察了接枝聚合物的结构性质,以及不同温度下接枝分子层对二元方阱流体的选择性吸附性能. 结果表明:分子刷厚度随接枝密度线性增长而随温度非线性增加,并且在高温下趋于饱和;在较低温度下,接枝聚合物刷能表现出很好的选择性吸附能力,当聚合物刷被加热到高于饱和温度时,该能力将大幅度地减弱. 关键词： 密度泛函理论 接枝聚合物 选择性吸附 方阱链     

GaAs光电阴极激活时Cs的吸附效率研究

从NEA GaAs光电阴极的激活光电流曲线发现,当系统真空度不很高时,在首次Cs激活阶段,表面掺杂浓度较低的阴极材料,其光电流产生需要的时间也较长.同时,随着系统真空度的提高,这种时间上的差异又变得不再明显.该现象表明,Cs原子在阴极表面的吸附效率同表面层掺杂浓度以及系统真空度之间有直接的联系.为定量分析这种关系,本文根据实验数据建立了Cs在阴极表面吸附效率的数学模型,利用该模型仿真的结果同实验现象非常符合.该研究对进一步开展变掺杂阴极结构设计和制备工艺研究具有重要的价值和意义. 关键词： GaAs光电阴极 吸附效率 真空度 表面掺杂浓度     

MgO-decorated carbon nanotubes for CO2 adsorption: first principles calculations

The global greenhouse effect makes it urgent to deal with the increasing greenhouse gases.In this paper the performance of MgO-decorated carbon nanotubes for CO 2 adsorption is investigated through first principles calculations.The results show that the MgO-decorated carbon nanotubes can adsorb CO 2 well and are relatively insensitive to O 2 and N 2 at the same time.The binding energy arrives at 1.18 eV for the single-MgO-decorated carbon nanotube adsorbing one CO 2 molecule,while the corresponding values for O 2 and N 2 are 0.55 eV and 0.06 eV,respectively.In addition,multi-molecule adsorption is also proved to be very satisfactory.These results indicate that MgO-decorated carbon nanotubes have great potential applications in industrial and environmental processes.     

Complex formation between a nanoparticle and a weak polyelectrolyte chain: Monte Carlo simulations

Understanding the complexation processes between nanoparticles and polyelectrolytes is an essential aspect in many branches of nanotechnology, nanoscience, chemistry, and biology to describe processes such as nanoparticle stabilization/destabilization and dispersion, water treatment, microencapsulation, complexation with biomolecules for example, and evolution of the interface of many natural and synthetic systems. In view of the complexity of such processes, applications are often based on empirical or semiempirical observations rather than on predictions based on theoretical or analytical models. In this study, the complex formation between an isolated weak polyelectrolyte and an oppositely charged nanoparticle is investigated using Monte Carlo simulations with screened Coulomb potentials in the grand canonical ensemble. The roles of the nanoparticle surface charge density , solution pH and ionic concentration C_i are systematically investigated. The phase diagrams of complex conformations are also presented. It is shown that the polyelectrolyte conformation at the surface of the nanoparticle is controlled by the attractive interactions with the nanoparticle but also by the repulsive interactions between the monomers. To bridge the gap with experiments titration curves are calculated. We clearly demonstrate that an oppositely charged nanoparticle can significantly modify the acid/base properties of a weak polyelectrolyte.
