First-Principles Studies of Hydrogen Adsorption at Pd-SiO2 Interfaces

The interaction of hydrogen with Pd-SiO2 interfaces has been investigated for the first time using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. The hydrogen-induced polarization at the Pd-SiO2 interfaces was evaluated using Pd-SiO2 interface supercells. As a result, the potentia...
