Molecular surface science has made enormous progress in the past 30
years. The development can be characterized by a revolution in
fundamental knowledge obtained from simple model systems and by an
explosion in the number of experimental techniques. The last 10
years has seen an equally rapid development of quantum mechanical
modeling of surface processes using Density Functional Theory
(DFT).
Chemical Bonding at Surfaces and Interfaces focuses on phenomena
and concepts rather than on experimental or theoretical techniques.
The aim is to provide the common basis for describing the
interaction of atoms and molecules with surfaces and this to be
used very broadly in science and technology.
The book begins with an overview of structural information on
surface adsorbates and discusses the structure of a number of
important chemisorption systems. Chapter 2 describes in detail the
chemical bond between atoms or molecules and a metal surface in the
observed surface structures. A detailed description of experimental
information on the dynamics of bond-formation and bond-breaking at
surfaces make up Chapter 3. Followed by an in-depth analysis of
aspects of heterogeneous catalysis based on the d-band model. In
Chapter 5 adsorption and chemistry on the enormously important Si
and Ge semiconductor surfaces are covered. In the remaining two
Chapters the book moves on from solid-gas interfaces and looks at
solid-liquid interface processes. In the final chapter an overview
is given of the environmentally important chemical processes
occurring on mineral and oxide surfaces in contact with water and
electrolytes.
* Gives examples of how modern theoretical DFT techniques can be
used to design heterogeneous catalysts
* This book suits the rapid introduction of methods and concepts
from surface science into a broad range of scientific disciplines
where the interaction between a solid and the surrounding gas or
liquid phase is an essential component
* Shows how insight into chemical bonding at surfaces can be
applied to a range of scientific problems in heterogeneous
catalysis, electrochemistry, environmental science and
semiconductor processing
* Provides both the fundamental perspective and an overview of
chemical bonding in terms of structure, electronic structure and
dynamics of bond rearrangements at surfaces
