Local reactivity of thin Pd overlayers on Au single crystals
The local reactivity of thin pseudomorphic Pd overlayers on Au(111) and (100) single crystal surfaces has been studied by periodic density functional theory calculations within the generalized gradient approximation. We have determined the adsorption energies of atomic hydrogen and of CO as a microscopic probe of the reactivity. We demonstrate that both surface strain effects and substrate inte...

One main group of organic chemistry is related to the aromatic compounds. In the present work, we replaced the CH group of benzene by silicon and nitrogen analogues. Then, Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out for six-membered heterocyclic Si-N aromatic rings. Full geometry optimizations were performed in gas-phase, and at B3LYP level using 6-311++G(d,p) and CBSB7 basis ...
متن کاملPb intercalation underneath a graphene layer on Ru(0001) and its effect on graphene oxidation.
Intercalation of Pb at graphene/Ru(0001) interfaces has been dynamically observed using in situ low energy electron microscopy and photoemission electron microscopy. A comparative study of Pb intercalation on the submonolayer and complete monolayer graphene surfaces suggest that the Pb intercalation happens through the open edges of graphene islands, starting at around 150 °C. Spatially-resolve...
متن کاملLocal reactivity of metal overlayers: Density functional theory calculations of Pd on Au
The local reactivity of Pd overlayers supported by Au has been studied by calculating atomic hydrogen and CO adsorption energies as a microscopic probe. The calculations are based on density functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation. The binding energies show a maximum on two Pd layers on Au, both for the ~100! and ~111! surfaces. We have furthermore analyzed local trends ...
