    Notes: Model calculations on CunOCH3 clusters with n ranging from 1 to 25 are carried out using ab initio Hartree–Fock and configuration interaction (CI) methods. The Cun clusters are chosen to simulate the substrate near the (111) surface and various adsorbate geometries modeling different lateral adsorption sites (top, bridge, fcc hollow, hcp hollow) at the Cu(111) surface are considered. A comparison of the different adsorption sites identifies the face-centered-cubic (fcc) hollow site as energetically preferred for OCH3 binding (D=2.8 eV at the CI level) in agreement with recent experimental results. Correlation contributions account for about 0.9 eV of the binding energies and do not depend on the binding site nor on cluster size. The OCH3–Cu interaction is characterized by metal to methoxy charge transfer filling partially occupied 2e (O 2p lone pair) radical orbitals. This leads to a negatively charged adsorbate such that ionic binding contributions become important. The binding scheme is qualitatively similar to that of other lone pair radical adsorbates like OH and influences the results of adsorbate core and valence ionization in the clusters. The present model results are consistent with experimental data concerning adsorbate geometries and binding as well as photoemission. © 1994 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The chemisorptive interaction of the hydroxy radical (OH) with the Cu(111) surface and its consequences for the surface electronic structure are studied by CunOH (n ranging from 1 to 25) cluster models using ab initio Hartree–Fock and correlated wave functions. A comparison of the adsorbate binding at the Cu(111) on top, bridge, and the two threefold hollow [face-centered-cubic and hexagonal-close-packed (fcc and hcp)] sites based on extended geometry optimizations yields the fcc site energetically favored with a binding energy EB=3.1 eV at the configuration interaction (CI) level. Correlation contributions account for about 0.9 eV of the binding and are almost independent of the binding site and cluster size. The OH–metal interaction is characterized by considerable Cu to OH charge transfer filling the partially occupied O 2p lone pair orbitals (OH 1π), while OH to Cu charge transfer involving the OH 3σ orbital is small. As a result, the adsorbate is negatively charged in the presence of the surface and ionic binding contributions become important. This makes the OH–metal binding very similar to that of other radicals such as, e.g., OCH3. The adsorbate binding character is also reflected in the results of cluster core and valence hole states corresponding to OH adsorbate ionization. These results may be compared with experimental photoionization data as they become available.

    Notes: Abstract Vanadium oxide surfaces are well known to play an active role as catalysts in hydrocarbon oxidation reactions where oxygen from different surface sites participates in the reaction. Due to the ubiquity of hydrogen in these systems, reaction steps involving (temporary) hydrogenation are possible and may influence the overall reaction scheme. This work examines structural and energetic consequences of hydrogen interacting with different oxygen sites at the V2O5(010) surface where the local surface environment is modeled by embedded clusters. The electronic structure and equilibrium geometries of the clusters are obtained by density functional theory (DFT) using gradient corrected functionals (RPBE) for exchange and correlation. Hydrogen is found to stabilize preferentially near oxygen sites forming surface OH and H2O species with binding energies of 0.5–2.3 eV per H atom depending on the site and species. Hydrogen adsorption weakens the binding of the surface oxygen with its vanadium neighbors considerably where the weakening is larger for H2O than for OH formation as evidenced by bond order analyses and results of the binding energetics. Thus, the studies suggest strongly that the presence of hydrogen at the oxide surface facilitates oxygen removal and, therefore, contributes to the enhanced yield of oxygenated products near vanadia based surfaces.

    Notes: One of possible approaches to the CI method is based on Boys bonded functions which can be generated in a systematic way forming an independent set of high internal symmetry. The main disadvantage of bonded functions is their nonorthogonality. In this paper a scheme is proposed for passing to orthogonalized set of bonded functions together with the appropriate algorithm for the transformation of the energy matrix H. The orthogonalization matrices are shown to reflect high symmetry of the canonical set of bonded functions, and in what follows they can be defined by short vectors. Moreover, the orthogonalization transformation can be handled in a blockwise manner.

    Notes: A new definition of a canonical set of bonded functions has been introduced. For a given configuration with r singly occupied orbitals and given multiplicity, the set exhibits symmetry properties of a group of order r. It simplifies the evaluation of the energy matrix H as well as the orthogonalization procedure.
