We review the state-of-the-art in the theory of dissociative chemisorption (DC) of small gas phase molecules on metal surfaces, which is important to modeling heterogeneous catalysis …
Molecular adsorbates on metal surfaces exchange energy with substrate phonons and low- lying electron-hole pair excitations. In the limit of weak coupling, electron-hole pair …

Electronic friction is a correction to the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, whereby nuclei in motion experience a drag in the presence of a manifold of electronic states. The notion of …
The field of gas‐phase chemical dynamics has developed superb experimental methods to probe the detailed outcome of gas‐phase chemical reactions. These experiments inspired …
An accurate description of nonadiabatic energy relaxation is crucial for modeling atomistic dynamics at metal surfaces. Interfacial energy transfer due to electron-hole pair excitations …
Q Liu, X Zhou, L Zhou, Y Zhang, X Luo… - The Journal of …, 2018 - ACS Publications
While the ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) approach to gas–surface interaction has been instrumental in exploring important issues such as energy transfer and reactivity, it is …
Nonadiabatic effects in chemical reaction at metal surfaces, due to excitation of electron– hole pairs, stand at the frontier of the studies of gas-surface reaction dynamics. However, the …
B Jiang, H Guo - The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2019 - pubs.aip.org
Recent advances in theoretical characterization of reaction dynamics on metal surfaces are reviewed. It is shown that the widely available density functional theory of metals and their …
