Application of Band-Structure Calculations to Chemisorption

  • Chapter
Theoretical Aspects of Heterogeneous Catalysis

Part of the book series: Van Nostrand Reinhold Catalysis Series ((NRECSES))

Abstract

This chapter is aimed at illustrating the point that theory has an important role to play in catalysis. This role is growing, but is not separated from experiment. In a general sense, one may justifiably argue that theory is not just paper and pencil or even computer exercises, but encompasses well thought-out and carefully analyzed experiments. In this definition all scientists practice their own form of theory. Rather than addressing this broader scope, some particular computational approaches will be emphasized in this chapter. A computational approach involving tight-binding band structure calculations will be the focus of attention in this paper. We will not discuss the area of cluster calculations that have been used to model chemisorption. This extended-Hückel version of tight-binding calculations has been applied to chemisorption in other studies.1–3 We also note that the computational studies discussed here have been applied to a range of problems in a complementary fashion with various analytical models.4
