Abstract

We have used the density functional theory to study the H adsorption phenomena on Rh (110) surface with H coverage from 0.33 to 2.00 mono-layers. We found H atom favors the three-fold coordinated site as observed experimentally. We confirmed the existence of 1x3-H (0.33 H coverage), 1x2-H (0.5 H coverage), 1x3-2H (0.66 H coverage), 1x1-2H (2.0 H coverage) ordered structures. We also found that the proposed 1x3-2H structure for H coverage of 0.66 is not the lowest energy configuration. We have proposed a new 1x3-2H structure which needs to be tested by future experiments. This is a preliminary report and a more detailed description of the work will be published later.
