Title: Electrons and Phonons Cooperate in the Laser-Induced Desorption of CO from Pd(111)

Abstract

Femtosecond laser induced desorption of CO from a CO-covered Pd(111) surface is explored with ab initio molecular dynamics with electronic friction that incorporates effects due to the excited electronic and phononic systems, as well as out-of-phase coadsorbate interactions. Our simulations reflect evidence of an important electron-phonon synergy in promoting CO desorption that has largely been neglected in other similar systems. At the saturated coverage of 0.75 ML, effects due to CO-CO interadsorbate energy exchange are also important. Our dynamics simulations, in concert with site-specific desorption energy calculations, enable us to understand the large coverage dependence of the desorption yields observed in experiments.
