Dynamics of Molecule Surface Interaction

by Gert D. Billing

Dynamics of Molecule Surface Interaction Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Anliegen dieses Buches ist es, die Oberflächenchemie vom molekularen Standpunkt aus zu erklären. Hilfreich ist der interdisziplinäre Ansatz, der sowohl chemische als auch physikalische Aspekte einbezieht. Elektronische und Schwingungsfreiheitsgrade der Substratmoleküle werden exakt beschrieben; die Ausführungen zur Wechselwirkung in der Gasphase sind mit aktuellen theoretischen Methoden unterlegt. (04/00)

Book News Annotation:

Taking a microscopic molecular dynamics point of view, rather than a macroscopic kinetic one, Billing (chemistry, U. of Copenhagen) relates the dynamics of chemical reactions at surfaces. Chapters cover basic concepts such as lattice structure, as well as topics such as interaction potentials, electron gas theories, and a quantum treatment of atom/molecule-surface scattering.

Review:

"...Billing relates the dynamics of chemical reactions at surfaces." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 24, No. 4, December 2000)

Synopsis:

Chemical reactions at surfaces do not follow the same reaction dynamics as atoms in the gas phase. The changes from "ideal" interactions depend on the electronic structure and the spatial and geometric shape of the surface. The dynamics of chemical reactions at surfaces have all the complexity of gas-phase molecules reaction dynamics, plus those associated with the additional phenomena due to the presence of a solid surface.
