Abstract: | Density functional theory calculations within the generalized gradient approximation(GGA) have been carried out to study the structural and vibrational properties of carbon monoxide adsorption on Rh(111) surface. The optimized geometries, adsorption energies and vibrationalfrequencies have been obtained and the preferred binding sites have been determined. Theresults show that at low coverage CO prefers to adsorb at top site and at high coverage one molecule occupies top site while the two other molecules occupy hcp and fcc hollow sitesrespectively. The investigation of the vibrational properties of CO chemisorption on Rh(111) shows that the top C-O stretching frequency increases along with the increase of the coverage. The site assignments, optimized geometries and calculated vibrational frequencies are found to be in good agreement with the experimental results. |
