Atom Absorption

Pt nano-particles are supported on carbon materials at the electrode catalysts of protonexchange menbrane fuel cells. Pt nano-particles are desirable to be strongly adsorbed on carbon materials for high dispersion, although strong Pt-C interactions may affect the catalytic activity of small clusters. Thus we have examined H-atom absorption on Pt clusters supported or unsupported on graphene sheets, using first-principles calculations. For Pt-atom/graphene systems, a H atom is more weakly adsorbed than for a free Pt atom, and the H-Pt interaction becomes weaker if the interaction between a Pt atom and graphene becomes stronger. For the Ptn-cluster/graphene systems (n=2-4), the H-Pt interactions are also substantially changed from those for free Pt clusters. In the Pt clusters on graphene, the Pt-Pt distances are substantially changed associated with the electronicstructure changes by the Pt-C interactions. These structural and electronic changes in the Pt clusters as well as the presence of graphene itself seem to cause the changes in the absorption energies and preferential sites of H-atom absorption.

Cds Film

Based on the calculations from the first principles, we obtained the distributions of valence electron densities and electron energy spectra for a CdS film with different oxygen concentrations. According to the results of calculations, it is established that during the adsorption of oxygen atoms on the surface of CdS, oxygen taking electrons from the surface atoms of the CdS film, increases its catalytic activity. The oxygen concentration should not exceed 12.5%.
