Interface atom mobility and charge transfer effects on CuO and Cu₂O formation on Cu₃Pd(111) and Cu₃Pt(111).

ABSTRACT: We bombarded [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] with a 2.3 eV hyperthermal oxygen molecular beam (HOMB) source, and characterized the corresponding (oxide) surfaces with synchrotron-radiation X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (SR-XPS). At [Formula: see text], CuO forms on both [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. When we increase the surface temperature to [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] also forms on [Formula: see text], but not on [Formula: see text]. For comparison, [Formula: see text] forms even at [Formula: see text] on Cu(111). On [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] forms only after [Formula: see text], and no oxides can be found at [Formula: see text]. We ascribe this difference in Cu oxide formation to the mobility of the interfacial species (Cu/Pd/Pt) and charge transfer between the surface Cu oxides and subsurface species (Cu/Pd/Pt).

Project description:Accurately modeling heterogeneous catalysis requires accurate descriptions of rate-controlling elementary reactions of molecules on metal surfaces, but standard density functionals (DFs) are not accurate enough for this. The problem can be solved with the specific reaction parameter approach to density functional theory (SRP-DFT), but the transferability of SRP DFs among chemically related systems is limited. We combine the MS-PBEl, MS-B86bl, and MS-RPBEl semilocal made simple (MS) meta-generalized gradient approximation (GGA) (mGGA) DFs with rVV10 nonlocal correlation, and we evaluate their performance for the hydrogen (H2) + Cu(111), deuterium (D2) + Ag(111), H2 + Au(111), and D2 + Pt(111) gas-surface systems. The three MS mGGA DFs that have been combined with rVV10 nonlocal correlation were not fitted to reproduce particular experiments, nor has the b parameter present in rVV10 been reoptimized. Of the three DFs obtained the MS-PBEl-rVV10 DF yields an excellent description of van der Waals well geometries. The three original MS mGGA DFs gave a highly accurate description of the metals, which was comparable in quality to that obtained with the PBEsol DF. Here, we find that combining the three original MS mGGA DFs with rVV10 nonlocal correlation comes at the cost of a slightly less accurate description of the metal. However, the description of the metal obtained in this way is still better than the descriptions obtained with SRP DFs specifically optimized for individual systems. Using the Born-Oppenheimer static surface (BOSS) model, simulations of molecular beam dissociative chemisorption experiments yield chemical accuracy for the D2 + Ag(111) and D2 + Pt(111) systems. A comparison between calculated and measured E 1/2(ν, J) parameters describing associative desorption suggests chemical accuracy for the associative desorption of H2 from Au(111) as well. Our results suggest that ascending Jacob's ladder to the mGGA rung yields increasingly more accurate results for gas-surface reactions of H2 (D2) interacting with late transition metals.
