Abstract

Because its important applications in catalysis, carbon monoxide adsorption on metal oxide surfaces was studied by multiple of methods. Contrary to transition metal surfaces, where CO bonding is strong (1-2 eV), bonding to oxide surfaces is dominated by multipolar electrostatic forces leading to quite weak adsorption (0.1-0.5 eV). We have simulated both clean and Ag-predosed (0001) corundum surface using a slab model within the Hartree-Fock technique as implemented in CRYSTAL computer code.
