摘要:
We show that the recently observed nonmonotonous dependence of the adsorption probability of H-2/Pd(lll) on the initial rotational state j of the impinging H-2 can be accounted for by considering the two factors-Steering (Dynamical Reorientation) and Rotational-Translational Energy Transfer (Bond-Length Extension), and the importance of the incidence energy (velocity) of the impinging hydrogen molecule. Furthermore, we show that considerable isotope effects can be observed for the j-dependence of the adsorption probability of hydrogen on Pd.
