Adsorption of atomic hydrogen on ZnO(1010): STM study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The adsorption of atomic hydrogen on a single crystal ZnO(1010) surface has been studied by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) under ultrahigh vacuum conditions at room temperature and at elevated temperatures. High resolution STM images indicate that a well-ordered (1x1) H adlayer is formed on the ZnO(1010) surface. The STM data strongly indicate that the hydrogen adsorbs on top of the oxygen atoms forming hydroxyl species. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) studies reveal a H atom induced metallization at room temperature. In contrast to the clean surface for the hydrogen-covered surface distinct defects structures consisting of missing O and Zn atoms could be identified.

Water adsorption on ZnO(1010): from single molecules to partially dissociated monolayers.
Static and dynamic density functional calculations have been used to study the structure and energetics of water adsorbed on the main cleavage plane of ZnO. In the single molecule limit we find that molecular adsorption is strongly preferred. The water binding energy increases for higher coverages due to an almost isotropic attractive water-water interaction which leads to clustering and format...
متن کاملSpectroscopy, microscopy and theoretical study of NO adsorption on MoS2 and Co–Mo–S hydrotreating catalysts
Infrared (IR) spectroscopy using NO as a probe molecule has been one of the important methods for characterizing hydrotreating catalysts, since this technique provides information on the nature and quantity of active edge sites of these catalysts. However, due to the strong adsorption of NO, which may lead to significant edge reconstructions, it has not been clear, how the characteristics of th...
متن کاملLarge work function reduction by adsorption of a molecule with a negative electron affinity: pyridine on ZnO(1010).
Using thermal desorption and photoelectron spectroscopy to study the adsorption of pyridine on ZnO(1010), we find that the work function is significantly reduced from 4.5 eV for the bare ZnO surface to 1.6 eV for one monolayer of adsorbed pyridine. Further insight into the interface morphology and binding mechanism is obtained using density functional theory. Although semilocal density function...
متن کاملDecontamination of DMMP by adsorption on ZnO, A Computational Study
Ab initio calculations at the density functional theory (DFT) and the second-order Møller−Plessetperturbation theory levels with 6-31+G(d), 6-31G(d) basis sets for non-metal atoms and LANL2DZfor metal have been performed for the adsorption of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) on ZnOby Gaussisn 98 program. The calculated rotational constants by B3LYP/6-31G(d) are in moreagreement with the experi...
متن کاملHydrogen adsorption configurations on Ge(001) probed with STM
The adsorption of hydrogen on Ge 001 has been studied with scanning tunneling microscopy at 77 K. For low doses 100 L a variety of adsorption structures has been found. We have found two different atomic configurations for the Ge-Ge-H hemihydride and a third configuration that is most likely induced by the dissociative adsorption of molecular hydrogen. The Ge-Ge-H hemihydride is either buckled ...
