The Oxidation of Graphitic Monolayers on Ni(110).

Abstract

The reaction between oxygen gas and a graphitic carbon monolayer formed on an initially clean Ni(110) surface has been studied by a combination of Auger electron spectrometric and molecular beam relaxation spectrometric techniques. The only gaseous reaction product observed is CO. the kinetics of the reaction at 873K are well described by a model involving oxygen adsorption at defects in the graphitic monolayer followed by reaction to produce CO at these points and the subsequent growth of holes in the carbon layer as reaction proceeds.
