Abstract
Using ab initio molecular-orbital calculations, I have studied the initial -induced oxidation of a C(001)-(21) surface. I have found that the dissociative adsorption of an molecule on a C—C dimer is extremely exothermic, being similar to that on a Si—Si dimer. However, on a C—C dimer does not form a molecular precursor, and there is an energy barrier from the reactant; in both respects, this is contrary to what occurs on the Si—Si dimer. The transition state geometries, the activation energies, and the intrinsic reaction coordinates were examined for two reactions: dissociative adsorption of a molecule on the C—C dimer and the decomposition process of the adsorbed hydroxyl OH) fragment into a carbonyl (>C=O) group.
