The Bonding of H to Ni, Pd and Pt Surfaces.

Abstract

The bonding of H to the (111) surfaces of Ni, Pd, and Pt has been studied using angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. H adsorbed onto a cooled substrate produces photoemission spectra characteristic of chemisorption. In this state the H atoms form an ordered overlayer. Heating the chemisorbed layer to approx 300K results in an irreversible transition of the H atoms into a surface site. (Author)
