Existence of a “Hot” Atom Mechanism for the Dissociation ofO2on Pt(111)
Abstract
The dissociation of ${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ on a Pt(111) surface was studied by variable temperature scanning tunneling microscopy at 150--106 K. The two oxygen atoms created by the dissociation appear in pairs, with average distances of two lattice constants. Since thermal random walk sets in only at around 200 K, with a diffusion barrier of 0.43 eV and a preexponential factor of ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}6.3}{\mathrm{cm}}^{2}{\mathrm{s}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$, the distribution of distances at around 160 K evidences nonthermal processes during the dissociation. It is concluded that transient ballistic motion exists, where the short range traveled is in agreement with recent molecular dynamics studies.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
