  1. 1. The effect of surface steps and oxides on the catalytic activity on model Pd and Rh catalysts

    Författare :Chu Zhang; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surface X-ray diffraction SXRD ; X-ray photonelectron spectroscopy; Catalytic activity; Oxide; Single Crystal surface; surface structure; vicinal surface; CO oxidation; stepped surface; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Zhang;

    Sammanfattning : A catalyst is a substance that can speed up the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being consumed. Catalysts are crucial for chemical production industries, where about 90% of all chemicals are produced using catalysts. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Molecular Alligator Clips: A Study of Metal-Molecule Contacts for Molecular Electronics

    Författare :Anton Grigoriev; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nonequilibrium Green s functions; single crystal surfaces; nanostructures; chemisorption; selenium; low index single crystal surface; density functional calculations; organic molecules; sulphur; nonequilibrium electron transport; gold;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis we present a computational study of the elementary building blocks for molecular electronics, interconnected electronic devices with critical dimensions below 5 nm. Building electronic circuits on that scale requires stable connection between the various parts of the device and to the macroscopic metal electrodes, needed for power supply, support and integration with conventional electronics.

  3. 3. Alkali Metal Adsorption on Metals Studied by Hiqh Resolution Core Level Spectroscopy and Low Energy Electron Diffraction

    Författare :Edvin Lundgren; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Low Energy Electron Diffraction; Physics; Core Level Spectroscopy; Surface Structures Photoelectron Emission; Single Crystal Surfaces; Alkali Adsorption; Aluminium; Metals; Alkali Metals; Fysik; LEED.; Fysicumarkivet A:1996:Lundgren;

    Sammanfattning : Alkali metal adsorption on metals is studied by High Resolution Core Level Spectroscopy (HRCLS) and Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED). The studies can be divided into two parts: adsorption of alkali multilayers and alkali adsorption in the submonolayer regime. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Adsorption and bonding on platinum : influence of the surface structure and chemical composition

    Författare :Emmanuelle Janin; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Platinum; tin; low index single crystal surfaces; adsorption;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the influence of the structure andchemical composition of platinum surfaces on the adsorption ofsome molecules. Three main lines can be distinguished : 1) thecharacterisation of clean/modified surfaces, 2) the adsorptionof some simple atoms and molecules on these surfaces andfinally 3) the adsorption of 2-butenal, a bi-functionalmolecule containing a C=C group conjugated with a C=O group.

  5. 5. Dynamics of metal oxides surfaces and the connection to reactivity

    Författare :Micael Baudin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; metal oxide surfaces; single crystal; molecular dynamics; dynamical effects onreactivity; Kemi; Chemistry; Kemi; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Many interesting chemical and physical phenomena which take place on surfaces of metaloxides rely on the material's ability to repeatedly alter the electronic surface structure. Formost metal oxides this functionality is connected to the degree of non-stoichiometry andthe presence of structural defects. LÄS MER
