AbstractCHE-0313717Hinch/RutgersThe detailed spectroscopic characterization of adsorbed cyanide, isocyanide, and isocyanate molecular species on transition metal surfaces is the focus of this research project. With the support of the Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program, Professor Hinch and her colleagues in the Chemistry Department at Rutgers University, are using time of flight inelastic helium atom scattering methods to probe the low frequency frustrated translational and rotational motions of these adsorbed species. Using this state of the art instrumentation, detailed information about the interaction potential energy surface that governs these adsorbate-surface processes is obtained. Information from this work provides the fundamental underpinning for the development of catalytically active surfaces.The very low frequency motions of small molecules adsorbed on metal surfaces can only be effectively probed by the scattering of helium atoms in a high resolution inelastic scattering apparatus. This information is crucial to the understanding of molecular motion on surfaces, and their subsequent reaction mechanisms and rates. Professor Hinch and her colleagues at Rutgers are using this unique approach to study the detailed interactions of small nitrogen and carbon containing molecular species with platinum and copper surfaces. This work provides fundamental understanding of catalytic and corrosion processes.

摘要CHE-0313717 Hinch/Rutgers过渡金属表面上吸附的氰化物、异氰化物和异氰酸酯分子物种的详细光谱表征是本研究项目的重点。 在分析和表面化学项目的支持下，Hinch教授和她在罗格斯大学化学系的同事们正在使用飞行时间非弹性氦原子散射方法来探测这些吸附物质的低频受抑平移和旋转运动。 使用这种最先进的仪器，获得有关这些吸附物表面过程的相互作用势能面的详细信息。 从这项工作中获得的信息提供了基本的支撑的催化活性表面的发展。吸附在金属表面上的小分子的非常低的频率的运动只能有效地探测由氦原子的散射在一个高分辨率的非弹性散射装置。 这些信息对于理解表面上的分子运动及其随后的反应机制和速率至关重要。 罗格斯大学的Hinch教授和她的同事们正在使用这种独特的方法来研究含氮和碳的小分子物质与铂和铜表面的详细相互作用。 这项工作提供了催化和腐蚀过程的基本理解。
