The interactions between water and hydroxyl species on Pt(111) surfaces have been intensely investigated due to their importance to fuel cell electrocatalysis. Here we present a room temperature molecular dynamics study of their structure…

Due to the improvement of computer power and the development of efficient algorithms it is now possible to combine high-dimensional quantum dynamical calculations of the dissociative adsorption of molecular beams with reliable ab-initio…

Several full-dimensional potential energy surfaces (PESs) are reported for vibrating CO adsorbates at two coverages on a rigid NaCl(100) surface based on first principles calculations. These PESs reveal a rather flat energy landscape for…

We present a first-principles study of the atomic hydrogen adsorption onto the Be(10\={1}0) thin film. There are two types of Be(10\={1}0) surfaces according to the interlayer spacing between the surface and its nearest-neighbor layer. We…

The energetics of transition and noble metal (Rh, Pd, Cu) vicinal surfaces, i.e., surface energy, step energy, kink energy and electronic interactions between steps, is studied at 0K from electronic structure calculations in the…

The adsorption of atomic oxygen and its inclusion into subsurface sites on Ag(210) and Ag(410) surfaces have been investigated using density functional theory. We find that--in the absence of adatoms on the first metal layer--subsurface…

The adsorption of pentacene on Cu(221), Cu(511) and Cu(911) is investigated using density functional theory (DFT) with the self-consistent inclusion of van der Waals (vdW) interactions. Cu(211) is a vicinal of Cu(111) while Cu(511) and…

First-principles density functional theory calculations were carried out to determine the low energy geometries of anatase TiO$_2$(001) with Pt implants in the sublayers as substitutional and interstitial impurities as well as on the…

Theory of adsorption on a surface with nanolocal defects is proposed. Two efficacy parameters of surface modification for nanotechnological purposes are introduced, where the modification is a creation of nanolocal artificial defects. The…

Inelastic electron scattering by the adsorbate covered Pt(100) single crystal surface is studied by Disappearance Potential Spectroscopy and density of states (DOS) calculations. Two peculiar channels of elastic electron consumption are…

Extensive density-functional calculations are performed for chemisorption of atoms in the three first periods (H, B, C, N, O, F, Al, Si, P, S, and Cl) on the polar TiC(111) surface. Calculations are also performed for O on TiC(001), for…

Adsorption of a molecule or group with an atom which is less electronegative than oxygen (O) and directly interacting with the surface is very relevant to development of PtM (M=3d-transition metal) catalysts with high activity. Here, we…

A series of First Principles calculations is undertaken to characterize and explain the enhancement of the catalytic activity of oxygen on top of very disordered nanomaterials of Pt. As the adsorption of OH fragment on top of the surfaces…
