While the diffusion of hydrogen on silicon surfaces has been relatively well characterised both experimentally and theoretically, the diffusion around corners between surfaces, as will be found on nanowires and nanostructures, has not been…
The adsorption of C60 on Si(111) has been studied by means of first-principles density functional calculations. A 2x2 adatom surface reconstruction was used to simulate the terraces of the 7x7 reconstruction. The structure of several…
The interaction of silicene with Si, C, H, O, Ti atoms along with H$_2$, H$_2$O and O$_2$ molecules are investigated and the induced functionalities thereof are analyzed using first principles density functional theory. Si adatom initially…
Relaxed atomic geometries and chemisorption energies have been calculated for the dissociative adsorption of molecular hydrogen on vicinal Si(001) surfaces. We employ density-functional theory, together with a pseudopotential for Si, and…
Using first-principles calculations, we systematically study the adsorption behaviors of molecular CO on the Be (0001) surface. By calculating the potential energy surfaces, we find that CO molecularly adsorbs on the Be surface with small…

Alumina (Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$) is a key material for thin-film growth and heterogeneous catalysis, where the atomic surface structure critically impacts performance. Using noncontact atomic force microscopy (nc-AFM) combined with density…
Determining the structure of water adsorbed on solid surfaces is a notoriously difficult task, and pushes the limits of experimental and theoretical techniques. Here, we follow the evolution of water agglomerates on Fe3O4(001); a complex…
The transfer of charges, including electrons and holes, is a key step in heterogeneous catalysis, taking part in the reduction and oxidation of adsorbate species on catalyst surfaces. In plasmonic catalysis, electrons can transfer from…

The adsorption and dissociation of nitrogen molecule on Fe(111) surface is studied by density functional theory calculations. The simulation results show that the molecule needs to acquire parallel orientation with respect to the surface…
The FCC structure of Pd$\rm_{1-x}$Ag$\rm_{x}$ ($\rm{x}=$ 0.25, 0.50, 0.75) alloys is considered as a fuel cell component in this study. We have looked into its qualities as a component of a fuel cell to see whether it could be potentially…
In this work, we have studied theoretically the effects of gold adsorption on the Al(001) surface, using {\it ab initio} pseudo-potential method in the framework of the density functional theory. Having found the hollow sites at the Al(001)…
We have studied the adsorption of bisphenol-A-polycarbonate (BPA-PC) on the alpha-Al2O3(0001) surface using density-functional theory (DFT) with van der Waals (vdW) corrections. The BPA-PC polymer can be divided into its chemical fragments…
We investigate the adsorption of a Ni monolayer on the $\beta$-SiC(001) surface by means of highly precise first-principles all-electron FLAPW calculations. Total energy calculations for the Si- and C-terminated surfaces reveal high Ni-SiC…
We present a dry surface treatment combining atomic layer etching and deposition (ALE and ALD) to mitigate dielectric loss in fully fabricated superconducting quantum devices formed from aluminum thin films on silicon. The treatment,…

Area-selective atomic layer deposition (AS-ALD) is an emerging technology in semiconductor manufacturing. However, accurately understanding inhibitor reactivity on surfaces remains challenging, particularly when the substrate is amorphous.…
