  • Density functional theory study of selenium adsorption on Fe(1 1 0)
    González, E. A. ...
    The adsorption of atomic Se on a Fe(1 1 0) surface is examined using the density functional theory (DFT). Selenium is adsorbed in high-symmetry adsorption sites: the -short and long-bridge, and atop ... sites at 1/2, 1/4, and 1 monolayer (ML) coverages. The long bridge (LB) site is found to be the most stable, followed by the short bridge (SB) and top sites (T). The following overlayer structures were examined, p(2 * 2), c(2 * 2), and p(1 * 1), which correspond to 1/4 ML, 1/2 ML, and 1 ML respectively. Adsorption energy is -5.23 eV at 1/4 ML. Se adsorption results in surface reconstruction, being more extensive for adsorption in the long bridge site at 1/2 ML, with verticaldisplacements between +8.63 and -6.69% -with regard to the original Feposition-, affecting the 1st and 2nd neighbours. The largest displacement inx or y-directions was determined to be 0.011, 0.030, and 0.021 A for atop and bridge sites. Comparisons between Se-adsorbed and pure Fe surfaces revealed reductions in the magnetic moments of surface-layer Fe atoms in the vicinity of the Se. At the long bridge site, the presence of Se causes a decrease in the surface Fe d-orbital density of states between 4 and 5 eV below Fermi level. The density of states present a contribution of Se states at -3.1 eV and -12.9 eV. stabilized after adsorption. The Fe-Fe overlap population decrease and a Fe-Se bond are formed at the expense of the metallicbond.
