Notes:
The chemisorption of atomic hydrogen and oxygen on a cobalt surface has been studied on a five-atom cluster model using one-electron effective core potential (1e-ECP) and all-electron calculations at the ab initio SCF and MCPF levels. Also, density functional calculations have been carried out. The different approaches are evaluated. The 1e-ECP has been compared to similar ECPS for nickel and copper. Our results indicate that this approach is valid also for cobalt. Different contributions to the cluster-adsorbate bonding energy are discussed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
