9783540576051: Surface Reactions: v. 34 (Seminar Series in Surface Sciences)

Synopsis

This monograph addresses important aspects of physical chemistry on metal surfaces. Included are chapters on selective oxidation, desulfurization, cyclization, metal-organic chemical vapour deposition, alkane activation and hydrogen dissociation dynamics. These case studies exemplify the methodology and the current state of knowledge in the surface chemistry of metals. The book focuses on the chemistry of selected systems, rather than the techniques of the field, in order to communicate the excitement of recent developments. The text presents case studies of mechanistic studies of molecular transformations on metal surfaces. It focuses on surface chemistry and the way the tools of modern ultrahigh vacuum techniques can be utilized to delineate details of chemical reactions on metal surfaces. It presents a uniform, complementary set of case studies and, although each chapter stands on its own, as a whole the book presents a uniquely integrated picture. The reader should gain a comprehensive understanding of the methods used to understand surface reactivity and a broad understanding of the principles.

Review

"Professor Madix and the individual authors are to be congratulated in putting together a casebook which will serve as an introduction to scientists in related fields as well as a guidebook for practitioners of surface science." Journal of the American Chemical Society
