Hydrogen adsorption on RuO2(110) — •Bianca Eifert1, Christian Heiliger1, Jan Philipp Hofmann2, Herbert Over2, and Ari Paavo Seitsonen3 — 1Physikalisches Institut, Justus Liebig University Giessen, D-35392, Germany — 2Physikalisch-Chemisches Institut, Justus Liebig University Giessen, D-35392, Germany — 3Physikalisch-Chemisches Institut, University of Zurich, CH-8057, Switzerland
Complementary to experimental work, density functional theory calculations are utilized to gain a deeper insight into the adsorption and insertion behavior of hydrogen and water species on the RuO2(110) surface at an atomic level. This is important for an improved understanding of RuO2 as a model and real catalyst system in reactions spanning from oxide-catalyzed dehydrogenation to a wide range of electrochemical reactions.
