Abstract

In this investigation, we have studied the kinetics and mechanism of desorption ofCOfrom theCu(110)surface using a new Monte Carlo simulation and putting emphasis on high order lateral interaction. According to our simulated TPD spectra, forβ=10K/s the maximum desorption rate occurs atTm=218.6K. Furthermore, analysis of simulated TPD spectra ofCOdesorption shows that it is strongly lateral-interactive and results an activation energy ofCOdesorption fromCu(110)that isEd=66.6Kj/mol. These simulated results are compared with other reported results and show excellent agreement. After that we have investigated the kinetics and mechanism of desorption ofCO2from theCu(100)surface using a Monte Carlo simulation. According to our simulated TPD spectra, forβ=0.5K/s the maximum desorption rate occurs atTm=89.7K. Analysis of simulated TPD spectra ofCO2desorption shows that it is not strongly lateral-interactive and results in an activation energy ofCOdesorption fromCu(100)that isEd=25.2Kj/mol. Finally, theCO/Cu(110)system is compared with theCO2/Cu(100)system.
