Abstract: | Monte Carlo simulation studies of percolation transition in a surface reaction model describing the oxidation of carbon mono-oxide on a catalytic surface are presented. The percolation transition for adsorbed oxygen atoms occurs below the poisoning transition where carbon mono-oxide completely covers the surface of the catalyst and takes place for an oxygen coverage of about 0.525 which is close to the percolation transition in an Ising lattice gas with nearest-neighbor attractive interactions. In several respects the oxygen clusters near the percolation threshold resemble those of the Ising lattice gas near its critical point. |
