Understanding how molecules interact to form large-scale hierarchical structures on
surfaces holds promise for building designer nanoscale constructs with defined chemical …

The comparison of experimental and predicted kinetic isotope effects in the α-cleavage of
alkoxy radicals is used here to judge the applicability of statistical rate theories. It is found …

The dissociation of NO on metal-free graphene was studied using density functional theory
(DFT). The effect of heteroatomic substitution of boron and nitrogen on the activity of the …

Catalytic methane decomposition (CMD) is receiving much attention as a promising
application for hydrogen production. Due to the high energy required for breaking the CH …

Non-transition metal oxides, including major minerals of the early Solar System, are known
to evaporate decomposing into multiple gas molecules, while maintaining their …

The activation and dissociation of hydrogen molecules (H 2) on the Cu (001) surface are
studied theoretically. Using first-principles calculations, the activation barrier for the …

Abstract The process of Molecular Scale Imprinting (MSI) is described. The method
comprises first self-assembly of molecular patterns on semiconductor or metals surfaces …

We report the observation of electron-induced unidirectional planar molecular rotation of
para-chlorostyrene on Si (100), studied by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at room …

Proton activity at the electrified interface is central to the kinetics of proton-coupled electron
transfer (PCET) reactions for making chemicals and fuels. Here we employed a library of …
