    Notes: Periodic modulations of oxygen pressure or temperature were applied in the catalytic oxidation of CO on a Pt(100) surface under isothermal, low pressure conditions. Transitions from aperiodic autonomous oscillations to regular phase-locked behavior could be observed. Computer simulations using a stochastic cellular automaton model yielded qualitatively similar results. The spatial distribution in both experiment and simulation varies essentially in phase over the whole surface area under the influence of the periodic perturbation, while wave propagation in the autonomous system causes more irregular overall behavior.

    Notes: The previously observed phenomena of temporal and spatial self-organization during the catalytic oxidation of CO on a Pt(100) surface were computer simulated by use of the cellular automaton technique. The underlying model is footed on the knowledge about the individual reaction steps (adsorption, desorption, surface structural transformation, etc.), which in turn formed the basis of a previous theoretical treatment in terms of the formulation and solution of a set of coupled differential equations. The present result nicely show the formation and propagation of two-dimensional patterns, and they reproduce qualitatively well all the experimental observations. The development of macroscopic patterns even with an a priori perfectly homogeneous surface is a particularly interesting effect.

    Notes: The rate of catalytic CO oxidation on Pt(100) and (110) surfaces at low pressures (≤10−4 Torr) and under isothermal conditions may exhibit sustained temporal oscillations which are coupled with periodic transformations of the surface structures between reconstructed and nonreconstructed phases, the latter exhibiting higher oxygen sticking coefficients and hence higher reactivity. With Pt(100) the two surface phases exhibit a much larger difference in reactivity (=oxygen sticking coefficient) than with Pt(110), which effect accounts for the qualitative differences in the oscillatory behavior: if two of the control parameters (say pO2, T) are kept fixed, the third (pCO) may be varied with Pt(100) over a fairly wide range without leaving the oscillatory region. Minor (〈1%) fluctuations of the partial pressures associated with the varying reaction rate are hence without any noticeable effect. Coupling between surface reaction and diffusion causes wave propagation of the surface phase transformations and therefore spatial self-organization, as demonstrated by scanning LEED experiments. With Pt(110), on the other hand, the oscillatory region is very narrow. In this case mass transport through the gas phase as caused by the small pressure variations associated with the reaction lead to synchronization between different parts of the surface. Computer simulations with the cellular automaton technique confirm qualitatively the experimental findings and support the conclusions reached.

    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: A two-variable Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanism for isothermal CO oxidation on a catalytically active surface is presented. It shows bistability stemming from 2 cusp bifurcations, which can be obtained analytically for low pressure. Inclusion of CO diffusion on the surface leads to a system of partial differential equations, which exhibits nucleation and front propagation phenomena in the bistable region. While the line of equistability could with good accuracy be solved for analytically, the front velocities and critical radii for nucleation had to be determined numerically (using the method of heteroclinic orbits). Throughout the calculations the kinetics and rate constants for the CO oxidation on Pt(111) are used. Here the model can be reduced by adiabatic elimination of one variable (namely oxygen coverage) allowing a comparison to the exactly solved one-variable Schlögl model. Possible implications for future experimental work are briefly discussed.

    Notes: The experimental characterization of the current/outer potential (I/U) behavior during the electrochemical CO oxidation on Pt(100), Pt(110) and Pt(111) is used as the first step towards a thorough investigation of the processes occurring during the electrochemical formic acid oxidation. The CO study is followed by new cyclovoltammetric results during the electrochemical formic acid oxidation on the corresponding Pt single crystals. At high concentrations of formic acid, the cyclovoltammograms revealed a splitting of the large current peak observed on the cathodic sweep into two peaks whose dependence on scan rate and reverse potential was investigated. It turned out that the presence of a sufficiently large ohmic resistance R was crucial for oscillatory instabilities. Given an appropriate resistance, all three Pt surfaces were found to exhibit current oscillations at both low and high formic acid concentrations. On Pt(100) stable mixed-mode oscillations were observed. In addition, the sensitivity of the oscillations to stirring was investigated. Whereas the period-1 oscillations were found to be independent of stirring, the mixed-mode oscillations transformed into simple oscillations with stirring. The mechanism giving rise to instability and oscillations is described. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
