Theory of Metal Clusters on the MgO Surface: The Role of Point Defects

  • Chapter
Nanocatalysis

Part of the book series: Nanoscience and Technology ((NANO))

Oxides surfaces are finding continuous new applications in advanced technologies, like corrosion protection, thermal coating, in catalysis as inert supports or directly as catalysts, in microelectronics for their dielectric properties; films of magnetic oxides are integral components in magnetic recording devices and many microporous materials are based on oxides. For all these reasons, there is a considerable effort to better characterize the surfaces and the interfaces of oxide materials [1,2]. New experimental methods have been developed to grow well-defined films of oxides on metal supports in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions [3–10]. This approach allows overcoming some difficulties connected to the use of electron spectroscopies for the study of insulating materials, as most of the oxides are. Not surprisingly, the increasing experimental activity has stimulated a parallel computational activity based on high-quality first principle calculations.
