Water dissociative adsorption on the precovered Fe (100) surface from DFT computation
The H2O adsorption and dissociation on two kinds of the precovered Fe surface were studied by density functional theory. On the surface-1, the water molecules prefer to adsorb on the bridge and hollow sites than ...
