Water is perhaps the most important and most pervasive chemical on our planet. The
influence of water permeates virtually all areas of biochemical, chemical and physical …

The purpose of this review is to compare and discuss recent experimental and theoretical
results in the field of H 2 O-solid interactions. We emphasize studies of low (submonolayer) …

This book summarizes the present state of knowledge on the microscopic behavior of oxide
surfaces. It includes classical approaches, introduces the concept of ionicity, and describes …

High specific capacity as well as good cycling stability are crucial for practical applications of
supercapacitors, but actually the specific capacitances of transition metal oxide-based …

We have developed a theory for the properties of vibrational excitations in molecules
adsorbed on a metal surface. The coherent potential approximation (CPA) is used in the …

The electronic structure and vibrations of an adsorbed hydroxyl (OH) species are identified
and characterized for the first time on a transition-metal surface. In this study of water's …

Hydroxyl groups at the surfaces of NiO (100), NiO (111), and Cr 2 O 3 (111) have been
studied using different surface sensitive spectroscopies. The OH groups are readily formed …

The metal-surface selection rule predicts that some infrared absorption bands should be
absent from the spectra of molecules adsorbed on metal particles. It predicts that those …

Using infrared spectroscopy. chemisorbed CO has been employed as a surface probe to
observe differences in Rh site distributions on AI, o,-supported Rh. It has been found that …

This article reviews the discovery, exploration, and application of negative-ion resonances in
inelastic electron scattering by molecules adsorbed on surfaces. A major theme of the …
