Building on our earlier study, we examine the kinetic barriers to decomposition of alane, AlH$_3$, on the Si(001) surface, using the nudged elastic band (NEB) approach within DFT. We find that the initial decomposition to AlH with two H…
Several dissociated and two non-dissociated adsorption structures of the phenol molecule on the Si(001)-(2 \times 1) surface are studied using density functional theory with various exchange and correlation functionals. The relaxed…
Theoretical calculations based on density functional theory have made significant contributions to our understanding of metal oxides, their surfaces, and the binding of molecules at these surfaces. In this paper we investigate the binding…
Using density-functional theory we investigate several properties of Al(111), Al(100), Al(110), and stepped Al(111) surfaces. We report results of formation energies of surfaces, steps, adatoms, and vacancies. For the adsorption and…
The structures and energetics of organic molecules adsorbed onto clean and H-passivated Si(001)-(2$\times$1) surfaces have been calculated using density functional theory. For benzene adsorbed on the clean Si surface the tight-bridge…
The adsorption of AlCl$_{3}$ on Si(100) and the effect of annealing the AlCl$_{3}$-dosed substrate was studied to reveal key surface processes for the development of atomic-precision acceptor-doping techniques. This investigation was…
We report a first-principles study of the energetics of hydrogen absorption and desorption (i.e. H-vacancy formation) on pure and Ti-doped sodium alanate (NaAlH4) surfaces. We find that the Ti atom facilitates the dissociation of H2…
Recent experiments on the silicon terminated $3\times 2$ SiC(100) surface indicated an unexpected metallic character upon hydrogen adsorption. This effect was attributed to the bonding of hydrogen to a row of Si atoms and to the…
The structure of an Al(111)3x3-Si surface was examined by combining data from positron diffraction and core-level photoemission spectroscopy. Analysis of the diffraction rocking curves indicated that the overlayer had a flat honeycomb…
The adsorption characteristics of alkali, alkaline earth and transition metal adatoms on silicene, a graphene-like monolayer structure of silicon, are analyzed by means of first-principles calculations. In contrast to graphene, interaction…
This paper presents a DFT study for phosphine adsorption on a Si(001)-2$\times$1 surface covered by a chlorine monolayer, including adsorption on local defects, i.e. mono- and bivacancies in the adsorbate layer (Cl, Cl$_2$), and combined…
Equilibrium atomic configurations and electron energy structure of ethanol adsorbed on the Si (111) surface are studied by the first-principles density functional theory. Geometry optimization is performed by the total energy minimization…
We report differences in adsorption and reaction energetics for ethylene on Si(001) with respect to different dangling bond configurations induced by hydrogen precoverage as obtained via density functional theory calculations. This can help…
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…
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…
The dissociative adsorption of methane on variously oxidized Pd, Pt and Pd-Pt surfaces is investigated using density-functional theory, as a step towards understanding the combustion of methane on these materials. For Pd-Pt alloys, models…
The adsorption of hydrogen at nonpolar GaN(1-100) surfaces and its impact on the electronic and vibrational properties is investigated using surface electron spectroscopy in combination with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. For…
Using the plane wave pseudopotential method within the density functional theory with the generalized gradient approximation for exchange and correlation potential, we have calculated adsorption energies (Ead), diffusion barriers and the…
Ab initio calculations within the density-functional theory formalism are performed to investigate the chemical functionalization of a graphene-like monolayer of silicon - silicene - with B, N, Al or P atoms. The structural, electronic,…
We use scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and Auger electron spectroscopy to study the behavior of adsorbed phosphine (PH$_{3}$) on Si(001), as a function of annealing temperature, paying particular attention to the formation of the Si-P…
