We have measured the dissociative chemisorption probability of D2 on Pt ( I 1 I ) as a function of molecular oxygen coverage and have found that the dissociation probability decreases linearly with O2 coverage. The results suggest that O2 poisons the chemisorption sterically by blocking approximatel

We have investigated the deutetium-oxygen reaction on a Pt( 111) surface, and the influence of atomic steps on this reaction at surface temperatures around 500 K and oxygen coverages @,z-0.0 1. The kinetics of the reaction has been studied with molecular beam relaxation spectroscopy (MBRS), while th
Adsorbed hydroxyl (OH(a)) has been identified by HREELS as an intermediate in the reaction of Hz(g) +O(a)+H,O(a) on Pt( 111). This OH(a) is different from the product of the reaction of water with adsorbed oxygen atoms which also occurs on Pt(ll1). Adsorbed water made by reaction of Hz(g) +0(a) has
Gold as a catalytic material has recently attracted much interest in the catalysis community (see, e.g. refs. [1, 2] and references therein). Although inert as a bulk material, it can be catalytically very active in the form of nanometer-sized particles on suitable supports as first pointed out by H
