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 {\alpha}-Ti(0001) surface was studied using density functional theory. In order to enhance the oxidation resistance, we substituted Ti atoms with Si atoms in Ti(0001) surface. We observe that Si prefers to segregate at the…
The spin-density functional theory (DFT) and DFT+$U$ with Hubbard $U$ term accounting for on-site Coulomb interactions were applied to investigate structure, stability, and electronic properties of different terminations of the…
Surface oxidation processes are crucial for the functionality of Cu-based catalytic systems used for methanol synthesis, partial oxidation of methanol or the water-gas shift reaction. We assess the stability and population of the…
We reproduced the initial sticking probability of O$_{2}$/Al(111) by use of spin-polarized density functional theory and quantum dynamics calculations. We found a large activation barrier when the molecule is dissociatively adsorbed through…
Using first-principles density functional theory (DFT), we studied the issue of water incorporation in iron bearing wadsleyite (Mg$_2$SiO$_4$)mineral at transition zone pressures and temperature under varying conditions of vacancy…
We present a density-functional theory study addressing the energetics and electronic structure properties of isolated oxygen adatoms at the SrTiO3(001) surface. Together with a surface lattice oxygen atom, the adsorbate is found to form a…
Iron oxides play an increasingly prominent role in heterogeneous catalysis, hydrogen production, spintronics and drug delivery. The surface or material interface can be performance limiting in these applications, so it is vital to determine…
First principles electronic structure calculations based on density functional theory have been used to study the thermodynamic, structural and transport properties of solid solutions and liquid alloys of iron and oxygen at Earth's core…
While ultra-thin layers of the LaNiO$_3$ film exhibit a remarkable metal-insulator transition as the film thickness becomes smaller than a few unit cell (u.c.), the formation of oxygen vacancies and their effects on the correlated…
We present a first-principles atomistic thermodynamics framework to describe the structure, composition and segregation profile of an alloy surface in contact with a (reactive) environment. The method is illustrated with the application to…
We investigate the atomic hydrogen adsorption on Mg(0001) by using density-functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation and a supercell approach. The coverage dependence of the adsorption structures and energetics is…
The incorporation of oxygen atoms has been simulated into either nitrogen or uranium vacancy at the UN(001) surface, sub-surface or central layers. For calculations on the corresponding slab models both the relativistic pseudopotentials and…
We have studied the segregation of P and B impurities during oxidation of the Si(100) surface by means of combined static and dynamical first-principles simulations based on density functional theory. In the bare surface, dopants segregate…
By means of density functional theory we have undertaken a structural, electronic and magnetic survey of the adsorption of the Fe_xPt_y(x,y=<4) clusters on MgO (001) surface under the generalized gradient approximation. We have tested…
Stable oxygen sites on a PdO film over a Pd(100) thin structures with a (sqrt{5} times sqrt{5}) R27^circ surface-unit cell are determined using the first-principles electronic structure calculations with the generalized gradient…
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…
The adsorption of MgO molecules on a Fe(001) surface was studied using density functional theory (DFT) and projector augmented wave methods. The energetically most favored configurations for different adsorption sites considered were…
The effects of oxygen adsorption on the reflectance anisotropy spectrum (RAS) of reconstructed Si(100):O surfaces at sub-monolayer coverage (first stages of oxidation) have been studied by an ab initio DFT-LDA scheme within a plane-wave,…
Equilibration dynamics of hot oxygen atoms following O2 dissociation on Pd(100) and Pd(111) surfaces are investigated by molecular dynamics simulations based on a scalable neural network potential enabling first-principles description of O2…
