Competing ternary surface reaction CO + O2 + H2 on Ir(111).

ABSTRACT: The CO oxidation on platinum-group metals under ultra-high-vacuum conditions is one of the most studied surface reactions. However, the presence of disturbing species and competing reactions are often neglected. One of the most interesting additional gases to be treated is hydrogen, due to its importance in technical applications and its inevitability under vacuum conditions. Adding hydrogen to the reaction of CO and O2 leads to more adsorbed species and competing reaction steps towards water formation. In this study, a model for approaching the competing surface reactions CO+O 2 + H2 is presented and discussed. Using the framework of bifurcation theory, we show how the steady states of the extended system correspond to a swallowtail catastrophe set with a tristable regime within the swallowtail. We explore numerically the possibility of reaching all stable states and illustrate the experimental challenges such a system could pose. Lastly, an approximative first-principle approach to diffusion illustrates how up to three stable states balance each other while forming heterogeneous patterns.

Quantum Monte Carlo Calculations on a Benchmark Molecule-Metal Surface Reaction: H2 + Cu(111).

Project description:Accurate modeling of heterogeneous catalysis requires the availability of highly accurate potential energy surfaces. Within density functional theory, these can-unfortunately-depend heavily on the exchange-correlation functional. High-level ab initio calculations, on the other hand, are challenging due to the system size and the metallic character of the metal slab. Here, we present a quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) study for the benchmark system H2 + Cu(111), focusing on the dissociative chemisorption barrier height. These computationally extremely challenging ab initio calculations agree to within 1.6 ± 1.0 kcal/mol with a chemically accurate semiempirical value. Remaining errors, such as time-step errors and locality errors, are analyzed in detail in order to assess the reliability of the results. The benchmark studies presented here are at the cutting edge of what is computationally feasible at the present time. Illustrating not only the achievable accuracy but also the challenges arising within QMC in such a calculation, our study presents a clear picture of where we stand at the moment and which approaches might allow for even more accurate results in the future.

How silicene on Ag(111) oxidizes: microscopic mechanism of the reaction of O2 with silicene.

Project description:We demonstrate, using first-principles molecular-dynamics simulations, that oxidation of silicene can easily take place either at low or high oxygen doses, which importantly helps clarify previous inconsistent reports on the oxidation of silicene on the Ag(111) substrate. We show that, while the energy barrier for an O2 molecule reacting with a Si atom strongly depends on the position and orientation of the molecule, the O2 molecule immediately dissociates and forms an Si-O-Si configuration once it finds a barrier-less chemisorption pathway around an outer Si atom of the silicene overlayer. A synergistic effect between the molecular dissociation and subsequent structural rearrangements is found to accelerate the oxidation process at a high oxygen dose. This effect also enhances self-organized formation of sp(3)-like tetrahedral configurations (consisting of Si and O atoms), which results in collapse of the two-dimensional silicene structure and its exfoliation from the substrate. We also find that the electronic properties of the silicene can be significantly altered by oxidation. The present findings suggest that low flux and low temperature of the oxygen gas are key to controlling oxidation of silicene.

Dissociative Chemisorption of O2 on Al(111): Dynamics on a Correlated Wave-Function-Based Potential Energy Surface.

Project description:Dissociative chemisorption of O2 on the Al(111) surface represents an extensively studied prototype for understanding the interaction between O2 and metal surfaces. It is well known that the experimentally observed activation barrier for O2 dissociation is not captured by conventional density functional theory. The interpretation of this barrier as a result of spin transitions along the reaction path has been challenged by recent embedded correlated wave function (ECW) calculations that naturally yield an adiabatic barrier. However, the ECW calculations have been limited to a static analysis of the reaction pathways and have not yet been tested by dynamics simulations. We present a global six-dimensional potential energy surface (PES) for this system parametrized with ECW data points. This new PES provides a reasonable description of the site-specific and orientation-dependent activation barriers. Quasi-classical trajectory calculations on this PES semiquantitatively reproduce both the observed translational energy dependence of the sticking probability and steric effects with aligned O2 molecules.

PdAg/Ag(111) Surface Alloys: A Highly Efficient Catalyst of Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Project description:In this article, the behavior of various Pd ensembles on the PdAg(111) surfaces was systematically investigated for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) intermediates using density functional theory (DFT) simulation. The Pd monomer on the PdAg(111) surface (with a Pd subsurface layer) has the best predicted performance, with a higher limiting potential (0.82 V) than Pt(111) (0.80 V). It could be explained by the subsurface coordination, which was also proven by the analysis of electronic properties. In this case, it is necessary to consider the influence of the near-surface layers when modeling the single-atom alloy (SAA) catalyst processes. Another important advantage of PdAg SAA is that atomic-dispersed Pd as adsorption sites can significantly improve the resistance to CO poisoning. Furthermore, by adjusting the Pd ensembles on the catalyst surface, an exciting ORR catalyst combination with predicted activity and high tolerance to CO poisoning can be designed.

Catalytic Reaction Mechanism of NO-CO on the ZrO2 (110) and (111) Surfaces.

Project description:Due to the large population of vehicles, significant amounts of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and unburned hydrocarbons (HC) are emitted into the atmosphere, causing serious pollution to the environment. The use of catalysis prevents the exhaust from entering the atmosphere. To better understand the catalytic mechanism, it is necessary to establish a detailed chemical reaction mechanism. In this study, the adsorption behaviors of CO and NO, the reaction of NO reduction with CO on the ZrO2 (110) and (111) surfaces was performed through periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The detailed mechanism for CO2 and N2 formation mainly involved two intermediates N2O complexes and NCO species. Moreover, the existence of oxygen vacancies was crucial for NO reduction reactions. From the calculated energy, it was found that the pathway involving NCO intermediate interaction occurring on the ZrO2 (110) surface was most favorable. Gas phase N2O formation and dissociation were also considered in this study. The results indicated the role of reaction intermediates NCO and N2O in catalytic reactions, which could solve the key scientific problems and disputes existing in the current experiments.

Reduced-Dimensionality Quantum Dynamics Study of the 3Fe(CO)4 + H2 1FeH2(CO)4 Spin-inversion Reaction.

Project description:Many chemical reactions of transition metal compounds involve a change in spin state via spin inversion, which is induced by relativistic spin-orbit coupling. In this work, we theoretically study the efficiency of a typical spin-inversion reaction, 3Fe(CO)4 + H2 1FeH2(CO)4. Structural and vibrational information on the spin-inversion point, obtained through the spin-coupled Hamiltonian approach, is used to construct three degree-of-freedom potential energy surfaces and to obtain singlet-triplet spin-orbit couplings. Using the developed spin-diabatic potential energy surfaces in reduced dimensions, we perform quantum nonadiabatic transition state wave packet calculations to obtain the cumulative reaction probability. The calculated cumulative reaction probability is found to be significantly larger than that estimated from the one-dimensional surface-hopping probability. This indicates the importance of both multidimensional and nuclear quantum effects in spin inversion for polyatomic chemical reaction systems.

Hyperoxidation of mitochondrial peroxiredoxin limits H2 O2 -induced cell death in yeast.

Project description:Hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) plays important roles in cellular signaling, yet nonetheless is toxic at higher concentrations. Surprisingly, the mechanism(s) of cellular H2 O2 toxicity remain poorly understood. Here, we reveal an important role for mitochondrial 1-Cys peroxiredoxin from budding yeast, Prx1, in regulating H2 O2 -induced cell death. We show that Prx1 efficiently transfers oxidative equivalents from H2 O2 to the mitochondrial glutathione pool. Deletion of PRX1 abrogates glutathione oxidation and leads to a cytosolic adaptive response involving upregulation of the catalase, Ctt1. Both of these effects contribute to improved cell viability following an acute H2 O2 challenge. By replacing PRX1 with natural and engineered peroxiredoxin variants, we could predictably induce widely differing matrix glutathione responses to H2 O2 . Therefore, we demonstrated a key role for matrix glutathione oxidation in driving H2 O2 -induced cell death. Finally, we reveal that hyperoxidation of Prx1 serves as a switch-off mechanism to limit oxidation of matrix glutathione at high H2 O2 concentrations. This enables yeast cells to strike a fine balance between H2 O2 removal and limitation of matrix glutathione oxidation.

Coverage-Induced Orientation Change: CO on Ir(111) Monitored by Polarization-Dependent Sum Frequency Generation Spectroscopy and Density Functional Theory.

Project description:Polarization-dependent sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy was applied to study the adsorption of carbon monoxide (CO) on the well-ordered (annealed) Ir(111) single-crystal surface at various CO coverages. Coverage was adjusted by varying the substrate temperature (300-575 K) and/or gas pressure (10-7 to 1.0 mbar). Under all conditions investigated, only a single absorption band at 2038-2094 cm-1 was observed, characteristic of linearly bonded (on-top) CO. Using different polarizations, PPP and SSP spectra were acquired with a high signal-to-noise ratio, whereby tilt angles of CO on Ir(111) could be determined for the first time by SFG. It was found that not only the vibrational frequency of on-top CO but also the tilt angle was strongly coverage-dependent. The higher the coverage was, the larger the vibrational frequency and the tilt angle were. At about 0.7 ML coverage, a CO tilt angle of at least 20° was observed, which is in good agreement with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In addition, the molecular hyperpolarizability ratio (R) of CO (at 0.13 ML in UHV) was determined to be 0.08. Based on the combined SFG/DFT results, it may change to 0.29 at 0.77 ML coverage.

Co/Cu-MFF derived mesoporous ternary metal oxide microcubes for enhancing the catalytic activity of the CO oxidation reaction.

Project description:Metal-organic framework (MOF)-based derivatives with uniform micro/mesoporous structures have attracted a great deal of interest in various research fields. Herein, we report a simple strategy to design functional mesoporous ternary metal oxides with controlled composition through direct pyrolysis of Co/Cu bimetal-formate frameworks (Co/Cu-MFFs), which were prepared by a facile one-step liquid-phase precipitation method, exhibiting uniform distribution of two different metal species and good structural integrity. The obtained mesoporous ternary metal oxide Cu x Co3-x O4 (x = 0.5, 1) microcubes exhibit much better performance for CO oxidation than pure Co3O4, which can be mainly attributed to their larger specific surface areas, stronger reducibility, and the synergistic effect of two active metal oxide components.
