The catalytic activities of high-spin small Fe(III) oxides have been investigated for efficient hydrogen production through ammonia decomposition, using the Artificial Force Induced Reaction (AFIR) method within the framework of density…
The formation of hydrides by gas-phase reactions between H2 and a heavy element atom is a very selective process. Reactions with ground-state neutral carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur atoms are very endoergic and have high energy…
The structural, vibrational, energetic and electronic properties of hydrogen at the stoichiometric RuO2(110) termination are studied using density functional theory. The oxide surface is found to stabilize both molecular and dissociated H2.…
Adsorption of ammonia at NH3/NH2/H covered GaN(0001) surface was analyzed using results of ab initio calculations. The whole configuration space of partially NH3/NH2/H covered GaN(0001) surface was divided into zones differently pinned…
Accelerating the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a main subject of electrocatalysis research.A critical step of ORR is the formation of the hydroperoxyl functional group (OOH*) intermediate. In this study, we investigate the influence of…
The oxidation of NO molecules on epoxy-functionalized highly oriented pyrolytic graphite, thermalized at 300 K, was studied by means of ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) calculations. Four collision energies and two different orientations…
The ion-molecule reactions $\text{D}_2^++\text{NH}_3$ and $\text{D}_2^++\text{ND}_3$ are studied at low collision energies ($E_{\text{coll}}$ from zero to $\sim k_\textrm{B}\cdot 50\,\text{K}$), with the $\text{D}_2^+$ ions in the ground…
Unique catalytic potential of metal surfaces has encouraged a great number of basic and applied studies. The manuscript highlights the general regularities in a field on the grounds of strong interrelation between catalytic, kinetic and…
The importance of co-adsorption for applications of porous materials in gas separation has motivated fundamental studies, which have initially focused on the comparison of the binding energies of different gas molecules in the pores (i.e.…
An adequate understanding of NOx interacting chemistry is a prerequisite for a smoother transition to carbon lean and carbon free fuels such as ammonia and hydrogen. In this regard, this study presents a comprehensive study on the H atom…

To investigate chemical reactivity of Cu atomic-scale structures, we performed simulations based on the generalized gradient approximation in the density functional theory. An atomic layer of Cu forming a triangular lattice (TL) was found…
First principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) are performed to study the electronic properties of Mg acceptors in AlN at the presence of oxygen. It is found that Mg and O tend to form complexes like Mg-O, Mg$_2$-O,…
The mixing of N2 with H2 leads to very different plasmas from pure N2 and H2 plasma discharges. Numerous issues are therefore raised involving the processes leading to ammonia (NH3) formation. The aim of this work is to better characterize…
Large scale first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) employing two different methods (atomic orbitals and plane wave basis sets) were used to study the energetics, geometry, the electronic charge redistribution…
