  3. 13. Chemical Bonding of Hydrocarbons to Metal Surfaces

    Author : Henrik Öström; Anders Nilsson; Phil Woodruff; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Adsorption; hydrocarbon; core-level; spectroscopy; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Using x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) in combination with density functional theory (DFT) the changes in electronic and geometric structure of hydrocarbons upon adsorption are determined. The chemical bonding is analyzed and the results provide new insights in the mechanisms responsible for dehydrogenation in heterogeneous catalysis. READ MORE

  4. 14. Water-Metal Surfaces : Insights from core-level spectroscopy and density functional theory

    Author : Theanne Schiros; Anders Nilsson; John Hemminger; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : water; hydroxyl; metal; surfaces; x-ray spectroscopy; density functional theory; bonding; fuel cell; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

    Abstract : Computational methods are combined with synchrotron-based techniques to analyze the structure and bonding of water and water plus hydroxyl at metal surfaces under UHV and at near-ambient conditions. Water-metal interaction plays a crucial role in a multitude of cosmic, atmospheric and biological phenomena as well as heterogeneous catalysis, electrochemistry and corrosion. READ MORE

  5. 15. Adsorption of Molecules on Metal Surfaces Studied by High Resolution Core Level Photoemission

    Author : Andreas Beutler; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Core level photoemission; molecules; adsorption; single crystal surfaces; metals; metal films; vibrations of adsorbed molecules; surface ordering; carbon monoxide; photoelectron spectroscopy; surface diffusion; Atomic and molecular physics; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Beutler;

    Abstract : Various aspects of the adsorption of molecules on metal surfaces have been studied making use of different properties of high resolution core level photoemission. A thorough investigation has been performed of the ordering and the site occupancy of CO overlayers on Rh(111). CO has been shown to adsorb in on-top and three-fold-hollow sites. READ MORE
