Ab-initio Hartree-Fock study of surface hydroxyl group on lithium oxide

Journal Article · · Fusion Technology
OSTI ID:447367

Bonding nature of hydrogen isotopes on the surface of Li{sub 2}O has been studied with the CRYSTAL92, ab-initio Hartree-Fock calculation code for periodic systems. It was found that the exothermic dissociative adsorption of H{sub 2}O molecule could occur on the relaxed surface. The adsorption energy for the most stable site was 0.438eV per one H{sub 2}O. The nature of -OH on the surface of Li{sub 2}O was also analyzed. Calculation results showed that the stretching vibration of O-H is affected by the chemical species around the -OH. 11 refs., 5 figs., 4 tabs.
