    Notes: Under isothermal conditions at low pressure (10−4 Torr), the catalytic oxidation of CO on a Pt(210) surface exhibits kinetic oscillations which have been investigated using Video-LEED, measurement of the CO2 production rate and the variation of work function. An induction period of ∼30 to 60 min, which has been shown to be due to a facetting of the surface exists before the appearance of kinetic oscillations. If reaction conditions are chosen which correspond to the high rate branch of Langmuir Hinshelwood kinetics, the Pt(210) surface facets into (310) and (110) orientations. The facetting process is associated with a decrease in catalytic activity caused by a lowering of the oxygen sticking coefficient. In situ LEED experiments demonstrated that the oscillations in the reaction rate are associated with periodic intensity variations of the half-order LEED beams belonging to (110) facets. Thus, the oscillations appear to be driven by the CO-induced 1×1(arrow-right-and-left)1×2 phase transition on (110) facets in the same way as has been verified for the system Pt(110)/CO+O2. The involvement of a facetting process explains the characteristic properties of kinetic oscillations on Pt(210) such as the relatively low high-temperature limit of ≈500 K, the existence of an induction period and the period length which is on the order of minutes.

    Notes: During oxidation of thin Cs films, a nonadiabatic surface reaction manifests itself in the emission of electrons. This effect was investigated in detail by combining measurements of the current and of energy distributions of these exoelectrons with studies on the electronic properties of the surface by means of ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and metastable deexcitation spectroscopy. Exoelectron emission occurs via Auger deexcitation of the empty state derived from the O2 affinity level. This process is confined to the stage Cs2O2→CsO2 in which resonance ionization of the affinity level of the impinging O2 molecule upon crossing the Fermi level EF is efficiently suppressed due to the absence of metallic states near EF. A kinetic model based on the successive steps involved in the oxidation of Cs is developed which describes qualitatively well all the experimental findings.

    Notes: UV-laser irradiation (hν=6.4 eV and 5.0 eV) of the water bilayer adsorbed on a Pd(111) surface leads to molecular desorption and to conversion of the adsorbed state as manifested in thermal desorption spectra. The latter effect is attributed to photodissociation of water on the surface. Time-of-flight measurements show that water molecules desorb with a translational energy of about 600 K for both photon energies indicating a nonthermal process. While desorption is largely suppressed with adsorbed multilayers, conversion within the first layer still proceeds. The dependence of the desorption yield on angle of incidence and polarization of the light reveals substrate excitations as the dominant primary step. A strong variation of cross sections with isotopic substitution is observed. This is interpreted as evidence for the operation of a mechanism involving excitation onto an isotope-independent excited potential energy surface followed by rapid deexcitation to the ground state so that, of the total number of species excited, only a small mass dependent fraction actually fragments or desorbs.

    Notes: The reaction of NO and CO on Pt(100) exhibits two branches of steady state production of N2 and CO2 and the occurrence of kinetic oscillations. This system was studied under steady flow conditions in the 10−6 mbar total pressure range using low-energy electron diffraction-(LEED), work function measurement, and mass spectrometry for determination of the reaction rate. These studies revealed that kinetic oscillations can only be initiated from one of the two stable reaction branches. Two separate existence regions were detected in which the oscillations are always damped. Oscillations can be very reproducibly excited by slight decreases in temperature. The 1×1(large-closed-square)hex phase transition of the surface structure was observed to take place only in one of the two regions of reaction rate oscillations. Its influence seems to be of minor relevance to the mechanism of oscillations as oscillations in one region occur on the surface that maintains a 1×1 structure. The experiments were modeled by a set of coupled differential equations based on knowledge about the elementary reaction steps. The model calculations reproduced the steady states of the reaction as well as the occurrence of kinetic oscillations in different ranges in excellent agreement with experimental observation. In the model, the phase transition also has no relevance for the oscillation mechanism. The occurrence of oscillations can be rationalized in terms of a periodic sequence of autocatalytic "surface explosions'' and the restoration of an adsorbate-covered surface. The damping, experimentally observed, is attributed to insufficient spatial coupling between different regions of the surface.

    Notes: A systematic study of spiral waves in a realistic reaction-diffusion model describing the isothermal CO oxidation on Pt(110) is carried out. Spirals exist under oscillatory, excitable, and bistable (doubly metastable) conditions. In the excitable region, two separate meandering transitions occur, both when the time scales become strongly different and when they become comparable. By the assumption of surface defects of the order of 10 μm, to which the spirals can be pinned, the continuous distribution of wavelengths observed experimentally can be explained. An external periodic perturbation generally causes a meandering motion of a free spiral, while a straight drift results, if the period of the perturbation divided by the rotation period is a natural number.

    Notes: Abstract Polycrystalline Ag treated with O2 at pressures up to 1 bar and at temperatures up to 920 K was examined by TDS. It was found that the peak commonly observed at 595±25 K and assigned to adsorbed atomic oxygen (Oa) is shifted to higher desorption temperatures with rising dosing temperatures. Since saturation of the uptake was not possible either, this peak was identified as dissolved atomic oxygen (Od). The existence of a maximum for the O2 uptake after exposure at 820 K was found. Hence, under conditions of formaldehyde synthesis (≈ 920 K) the ability of the catalyst to dissolve oxygen is near its maximum.

    Notes: Abstract The temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) of N2 from a multiply promoted iron catalyst used for ammonia synthesis has been studied in a microreactor system at atmospheric pressure. From TPD experiments with various heating rates a preexponential factorA = 2 × 109 molecules/site s and an activation energyE = 146 kJ/mol was derived assuming second-order desorption. The observed dependence of the TPD peak shapes on the heating rates indicated the influence of readsorption of N2 in agreement with the results obtained for various initial coverages. Simulating the N2 TPD curves using the model by Stoltze and Nørskov revealed that the calculated TPD curves were not influenced by the molecular precursor to desorption. However, the calculated rate of readsorption was found to be overestimated at high coverage compared with the experimental results. A coverage-dependent net activation energy for dissociative chemisorption (E*) was introduced as the simplest assumption rendering the dissociative chemisorption of N2 activated at high coverage. The best fit of the experimental data yieldedE* = (−15+30θ) kJ/mol using only a single type of atomic nitrogen species. These findings are in satisfactory agreement with the parameters underlying the Stoltze-Nørskov model for the kinetics of ammonia synthesis as well as with the data reported for Fe(111) single crystal surfaces.

    Notes: Abstract The elementary steps underlying the mechanism of a catalytic reaction are also responsible for its rate under steady-state conditions. In special cases the rate will no longer be stationary, but may become oscillatory or even chaotic. These phenomena have to be ascribed to the nonlinear character of the coupled differential equations modelling the temporal behavior of the surface concentrations of the reacting species. As a consequence, these concentrations may also exhibit spatial differences, even on ana priori uniform single crystal surface, leading to spatiotemporal patterns such as propagating and standing waves as well as ‘chemical’ turbulence. Experimental evidence for these effects is presented for a particular system, the oxidation of CO on a Pt(110) surface.

    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of a catalytic reaction is frequently formulated in terms of simple concepts of the Langmuir type. Apart from limitations arising from the non-uniformity of the catalyst's surface and from the coverage dependence of the rate “constants”, several other complications may come into play. These may arise on the “quantum level” where energy flow between the various degrees of freedom may cause failure of simple transition state theory, as well as on the “continuum level” where formulation of rate equations in terms of coupled non-linear differential equations may give rise to a rich scenario of spatio-temporal self-organization, including kinetic oscillations, chaos, and formation of concentration patterns. Several of these phenomena are illustrated by selected examples.
