Plasmonic Temperature-Programmed Desorption.

ABSTRACT: Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) allows for the determination of the bonding strength and coverage of molecular mono- or multilayers on a surface and is widely used in surface science. In its traditional form using a mass spectrometric readout, this information is derived indirectly by analysis of resulting desorption peaks. This is problematic because the mass spectrometer signal not only originates from the sample surface but also potentially from other surfaces in the measurement chamber. As a complementary alternative, we introduce plasmonic TPD, which directly measures the surface coverage of molecular species adsorbed on metal nanoparticles at ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Using the examples of methanol and benzene on Au nanoparticle surfaces, the method can resolve all relevant features in the submonolayer and multilayer regimes. Furthermore, it enables the study of two types of nanoparticles simultaneously, which is challenging in a traditional TPD experiment, as we demonstrate specifically for Au and Ag.

Theoretical Parameter-Free Analysis Model for Temperature-Programmed Desorption (TPD) Spectra.

Project description:This paper proposes a parameter-free mathematical model of analyzing either monosite or multisite temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) spectra. By linearizing the integral function difference, the desorption kinetic parameters, such as the desorption order n, the desorption activation energy E d, and the pre-exponential factor ν, can be extracted simultaneously with promising accuracy. A custom "ant" is further established in the model to explore the spectra by a "prediction-correction" loop, and the kinetics and the coverage distribution of the individual peak in the spectra can be solved sequentially. Meanwhile, eight cases on spectrum analysis, including but not limited to the spectrum with coverage-dependent kinetics, the spectrum affected by the noise, the practical spectrum, are demonstrated to fully understand the model's principle, process, and application. Moreover, the model optimization and resolution limitation are further discussed to stimulate the future potential of the innovative parameter-free model.

Adsorption of Mercury on Chlorine-Modified Activated Carbon: Breakthrough Curves and Temperature-Programmed Desorption.

Project description:The adsorption of elemental mercury (Hg0) on activated carbons modified with 0.2, 0.6, and 1 M HCl is systematically examined. Breakthrough curves are measured, and coupled adsorption and desorption experiments with temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) are performed. The experiments show that impregnation with HCl produces surface-bound chlorine, which significantly increases the capacity of activated carbons for mercury. Physisorptive interactions between elemental mercury and the activated carbon surface dominate on the basic materials. In contrast, on HCl-modified activated carbons, chemisorptive interactions of Hg0 with surface-bound chlorine lead to a complex involving carbon, chlorine, and mercury. Using TPD, two mechanisms could be identified that yield reaction products with different energetic values. By continuously recording Hg0 and Hgtotal concentrations, the formation of Hg0 and Hg x Cl2 during desorption of the complexes from the surface could be studied. It is shown that Hg x Cl2 found in TPD is not present as a solid salt in the pores but is formed by thermal degradation of the mercury chlorine complex on the carbon surface. The mass fraction of Hg measured in TPD which is bound in Hg x Cl2 depends on the Hg loading of the activated carbons, with a maximum mass fraction of 27%. We propose that an important step in the chemisorptive reaction with increasing mercury loading is the conversion of a HgCl2 complex into a Hg2Cl2 complex.

Light-Programmed Bistate Colloidal Actuation Based on Photothermal Active Plasmonic Substrate.

Project description:Active particles have been regarded as the key models to mimic and understand the complex systems of nature. Although chemical and field-powered active particles have received wide attentions, light-programmed actuation with long-range interaction and high throughput remains elusive. Here, we utilize photothermal active plasmonic substrate made of porous anodic aluminum oxide filled with Au nanoparticles and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) to optically oscillate silica beads with robust reversibility. The thermal gradient generated by the laser beam incurs the phase change of PNIPAM, producing gradient of surface forces and large volume changes within the complex system. The dynamic evolution of phase change and water diffusion in PNIPAM films result in bistate locomotion of silica beads, which can be programmed by modulating the laser beam. This light-programmed bistate colloidal actuation provides promising opportunity to control and mimic the natural complex systems.

Plasmonic Layer as a Localized Temperature Control Element for Surface Plasmonic Resonance-Based Sensors.

Project description:Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing is a well-established high-sensitivity, label-free and real-time detection technique for biomolecular interaction study. Its primary working principle consists of the measurement of the optical refractive index of the medium that is in close vicinity of the sensor surface. Bio-functionalization techniques allow biomolecular events to be located in such a way. Since optical refractive indices of any medium varies with the temperature, the place where the measurement takes place shall be within a temperature-controlled environment in order to ensure any temperature fluctuation is interpreted as a biomolecular event. Since the SPR measurement probes the sensed medium within the penetration depth of the plasmonic wave, which is less or in the order of 1 µm, we propose to use the metallic film constituting the detection surface as a localized heater aiming at controlling finely and quickly the temperature of the sensed medium. The Joule heating principle is then used and the modeling of the heater is reported as well as its validation by thermal IR imaging. Using water as a demonstration medium, SPR measurement results at different temperatures are successfully compared to the theoretical optical refractive index of water versus temperature.

Strong vibrational coupling in room temperature plasmonic resonators.

Project description:Strong vibrational coupling has been realized in a variety of mechanical systems. However, there have been no experimental observations of strong coupling of the acoustic modes of plasmonic nanostructures, due to rapid energy dissipation in these systems. Here we realized strong vibrational coupling in ultra-high frequency plasmonic nanoresonators by increasing the vibrational quality factors by an order of magnitude. We achieved the highest frequency quality factor products of f × Q = 1.0 × 1013 Hz for the fundamental mechanical modes, which exceeds the value of 0.6 × 1013 Hz required for ground state cooling. Avoided crossing was observed between vibrational modes of two plasmonic nanoresonators with a coupling rate of g = 7.5 ± 1.2 GHz, an order of magnitude larger than the dissipation rates. The intermodal strong coupling was consistent with theoretical calculations using a coupled oscillator model. Our results enabled a platform for future observation and control of the quantum behavior of phonon modes in metallic nanoparticles.

The interaction of size-selected Ru3 clusters with RF-deposited TiO2: probing Ru-CO binding sites with CO-temperature programmed desorption.

Project description:Small Ru clusters are efficient catalysts for chemical reactions such as CO hydrogenation. In this study 3-atom Ru3 clusters were deposited onto radio frequency (RF)-deposited TiO2 which is an inexpensive, nanoparticulate form of TiO2. TiO2 substrates are notable in that they form strong metal-substrate interactions with clusters. Using temperature programmed desorption to probe Ru-CO binding sites, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to provide chemical information on clusters, differences in cluster-support interactions were studied for Ru3 deposited using both an ultra-high vacuum cluster source and chemical vapour deposition of Ru3(CO)12. The TiO2 was treated with different Ar+ sputter doses prior to cluster depositions, and SiO2 was also used as a comparison substrate. For cluster source-deposited Ru3, heating to 800 K caused cluster agglomeration on SiO2 and oxidation on non-sputtered TiO2. For cluster source-deposited Ru3 on sputtered TiO2 substrates, all Ru-CO binding sites were blocked as-deposited and it was concluded that for the binding sites to be preserved for potential catalytic benefit, sputtering of TiO2 before cluster deposition cannot be applied. Conversely, for Ru3(CO)12 on sputtered TiO2 the clusters were protected by their ligands and Ru-CO binding sites were only blocked once the sample was heated to 723 K. The mechanism for complete blocking of CO sites on sputtered TiO2 could not be directly determined; however, comparisons to the literature indicate that the likely reasons for blocking of the CO adsorption sites are encapsulation into the TiO x layer reduced through sputtering and also partial oxidation of the Ru clusters.

Growth of an Ultrathin Zirconia Film on Pt3Zr Examined by High-Resolution X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, Temperature-Programmed Desorption, Scanning Tunneling Microscopy, and Density Functional Theory.

Project description:Ultrathin (∼3 Å) zirconium oxide films were grown on a single-crystalline Pt3Zr(0001) substrate by oxidation in 1 × 10(-7) mbar of O2 at 673 K, followed by annealing at temperatures up to 1023 K. The ZrO2 films are intended to serve as model supports for reforming catalysts and fuel cell anodes. The atomic and electronic structure and composition of the ZrO2 films were determined by synchrotron-based high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HR-XPS) (including depth profiling), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Oxidation mainly leads to ultrathin trilayer (O-Zr-O) films on the alloy; only a small area fraction (10-15%) is covered by ZrO2 clusters (thickness ∼0.5-10 nm). The amount of clusters decreases with increasing annealing temperature. Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) of CO was utilized to confirm complete coverage of the Pt3Zr substrate by ZrO2, that is, formation of a closed oxide overlayer. Experiments and DFT calculations show that the core level shifts of Zr in the trilayer ZrO2 films are between those of metallic Zr and thick (bulklike) ZrO2. Therefore, the assignment of such XPS core level shifts to substoichiometric ZrO x is not necessarily correct, because these XPS signals may equally well arise from ultrathin ZrO2 films or metal/ZrO2 interfaces. Furthermore, our results indicate that the common approach of calculating core level shifts by DFT including final-state effects should be taken with care for thicker insulating films, clusters, and bulk insulators.

DART-MS analysis of inorganic explosives using high temperature thermal desorption.

Project description:An ambient mass spectrometry (MS) platform coupling resistive Joule heating thermal desorption (JHTD) and direct analysis in real time (DART) was implemented for the analysis of inorganic nitrite, nitrate, chlorate, and perchlorate salts. The resistive heating component generated discrete and rapid heating ramps and elevated temperatures, up to approximately 400 °C s-1 and 750 °C, by passing a few amperes of DC current through a nichrome wire. JHTD enhanced the utility and capabilities of traditional DART-MS for the trace detection of previously difficult to detect inorganic compounds. A partial factorial design of experiments (DOE) was implemented for the systematic evaluation of five system parameters. A base set of conditions for JHTD-DART-MS was derived from this evaluation, demonstrating sensitive detection of a range of inorganic oxidizer salts, down to single nanogram levels. DOE also identified JHTD filament current and in-source collision induced dissociation (CID) energy as inducing the greatest effect on system response. Tuning of JHTD current provided a method for controlling the relative degrees of thermal desorption and thermal decomposition. Furthermore, in-source CID provided manipulation of adduct and cluster fragmentation, optimizing the detection of molecular anion species. Finally, the differential thermal desorption nature of the JHTD-DART platform demonstrated efficient desorption and detection of organic and inorganic explosive mixtures, with each desorbing at its respective optimal temperature.

Plasmonic amplification with ultra-high optical gain at room temperature.

Project description:Nanoplasmonic devices are promising for next generation information and communication technologies because of their capability to confine light at subwavelength scale and transport signals with ultrahigh speeds. However, ohmic losses are inherent to all plasmonic devices so that further development of integrated plasmonics requires efficient in situ loss compensation of signals with a wavelength and polarization of choice. Here we show that CdSe nanobelt/Al2O3/Ag hybrid plasmonic waveguides allow for efficient broadband loss compensation of propagating hybrid plasmonic signals of different polarizations using an optical pump and probe technique. With an internal gain coefficient of 6755 cm(-1) at ambient condition, almost 100% of the propagation loss of TM-dominant plasmonic signals is compensated. From comparison with a similar photonic structure we attribute the fast-increasing gain at low pump intensity in hybrid plasmonic waveguides to the transfer across the metal-oxide-semiconductor interface of 'hot' electrons photogenerated by the pump light.
