Cobaltocene adsorption and dissociation on Cu(1 1 1)
نویسندگان
چکیده
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.

The Effect of Cu Impurity on the CO-dissociation Mechanism on the Fe (100) Surface: A Full Potential DFT Study
In this study, the theoretical calculations of CO dissociation were carried out on Cu-Fe alloy surface by a full-potential method, which made more accurate results especially on the prediction of adsorption energies. This process may be governed by either a direct route or a H-assisted via HCO and COH intermediates pathways. In comparison to the pure surface Fe (100), the presence of Cu atom en...
متن کاملCO-NO and CO-O(2) interactions on Cu(100) between 25 and 200 K studied with infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy.
Infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRAS) has been used to study CO-NO and CO-O(2) interactions on Cu(100) between 25 and 200 K. A strong repulsive interaction between CO and NO on Cu(100) at 25 K causes tilting of the CO molecules away from the surface normal and a blue-shift of the CO vibrational frequency. Upon warming and decomposition of the NO, the CO molecules return to a bondin...

Density functional theory (DFT) and temperature programmed desorption (TPD) experiments have been used to probe the site preferences of adsorbed iodine atoms on Cu surfaces. DFT calculations are presented for iodine adsorption on Cu(1 1 1), Cu(1 0 0), Cu(2 2 1), Cu(5 3 3), Cu(5 3 1), and Cu(6 4 3). Additional DFT calculations are presented for I adsorption on a stepped Cu surface that mimics a ...
متن کاملBridging the Pressure Gap in Water and Hydroxyl Chemistry on Metal Surfaces: the Cu(110) case
We report the first measurements on the quantitative partitioning of water between its molecular and dissociated forms at a gas-metal interface under elevated water pressures and temperatures. By means of synchrotron-based in-situ photoelectron spectroscopy, mixed H2O and OH phases on Cu(110) at H2O pressures up to 1 Torr in the 275 – 520 K temperature range are studied. In increasing order of ...
متن کاملAdsorbate Induced Kink Formation in Straight Step Edges on Cu(5 3 3) and Cu(2 2 1)
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and temperature programmed desorption (TPD) measurements have revealed that the straight step edges of Cu(5 3 3) surfaces are reconstructed by the room temperature adsorption of R-3methylcyclohexanone (R-3-MCHO). STM and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) investigations have shown that the clean Cu(5 3 3) surface is composed of arrays of narrow (1 1 1) te...
