Oxygen Adsorption on β-Quartz Model Surfaces: Some Insights from Density Functional Theory Calculations and Semiclassical Time-Dependent DynamicsClick to copy article linkArticle link copied!
Abstract
The O/β-quartz interaction is described by combining our time-dependent semiclassical approach to atom–molecule/surface scattering with first-principles electronic structure calculations at the DFT (PBE0) level of accuracy. In particular, the O, O2 interaction potentials with an on-top Si atom and its nearest O atom both localized over three different silica clusters have been calculated as a function of the oxygen–silica approaching distance. The calculated DFT potential energy surface has been used in semiclassical trajectory calculations to investigate the sticking and inelastic reflection of oxygen atoms from a model β-quartz surface. The collisional mechanism, including the role played by the phonon dynamics, is brought to light and accurate sticking probabilities are calculated at five impact energies in the range [0.05–0.8] eV and TS = 1000 K. The different catalytic response of β-quartz and β-cristobobalite to the atomic oxygen flux is also discussed and highlighted.
