Adsorption of HCl on single-crystal alphs-Al2O3 (0001) surface: a DFT study
Article Abstract:
An attempt is made to study the adsorption of HCl on the basal plane of an alpha-Al2O3 crystal with the help of first principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) and the pseudopotential method. Implications of HCl binding to particles of alpha-Al2O3 released in the exhaust of the space shuttle booster rockets on the active chlorine-producing reaction in the stratosphere are discussed.

Theoretical study of the adsorption of acetylene on the Si(001) surface
Article Abstract:
The reactions of hydrocarbons with silicon surfaces, in particular the Si(001) surface and the interactions of acetylene with the Si(001) surface are investigated. Density functional theory with slab models and periodic boundary conditions are used to study the adsorption of acetylene on the Si(001) surface.
