From a recent theoretical study1 using crystalline extension of the Hückel method, the surface contributions to the main features P 1 and P 2 observed in photoemission experiments when atomic hydrogen is chemisorbed on the Si (111)-(7 × 7) reconstructed surface have been attributed to the saturation of the dangling bonds of the adatoms. This paper investigates the bulk contributions to those peaks. The contributions are derived from calculations on an eight-layer slab and on a real bulk. We conclude that states corresponding to σ bonding between successive silicon layers contribute to peak P 2.

AbstractThe effect of alloying on the adsorption of atomic hydrogen was studied using density functional theory (DFT). In the study the (100) surfaces of Pd-Ag, Pd-Pt, Pd-Au, Pt-Ag, and Pt-Au alloys were considered by means of a cluster model. The structural and energetic properties of the H atom adsorbed on the Pd4Me (Me = Ag, Pt, Au) and Pt4Me (Me = Pd, Ag, Au) clusters were calculated and compared with the H-atom adsorption on monometallic clusters. The effect of alloying on the H-atom adsorption is evident for all the investigated bimetallic systems. However, it strongly depends on the second metal atom, Me, is placed in the surface layer or in the subsurface one. In general, the H atom adsorbed in a site containing the second metal exhibits different properties from those characteristic of its adsorption on Pd(100) and Pt(100). Hence, the modified interaction between atomic hydrogen and the alloyed surfaces may increase the selectivity of the catalytic hydrogenation reactions on such surfaces.
