Theoretical study of gas-surface reaction dynamics: H reaction with Cl adsorbed on Au(111) dissociative chemisorption of methane on Ni(111)

Part I. The Eley-Rideal reaction of H atoms with Cl adsorbed on Au(111) surface is examined. Electronic structure calculations based on density functional theory are used to construct a model potential energy surface. Both a flat and corrugated surface are considered. Single adsorbate quantum mechan...
