Fast Ortho-Para Conversion ofH2Adsorbed at Copper Surface Step Atoms
Abstract
Ortho-para conversion of H2 adsorbed at the step atoms of a Cu(510) surface proceeds with a short conversion time constant around 1 s as observed in electron-energy-loss measurements of rotational populations. We suggest that this rapid conversion is related to the special character of the adsorption state, which involves a short H2-Cu bond length of 1.8 A. On the flat Cu(100) surface, conversion is found to occur at active sites, most likely step atoms.

Some materials, such as silver, copper, charcoal, graphite, and supported chromium and ferric oxides, have been found effective for ortho-to para-hydrogen conversion.
“Some materials, such as silver [81][82][83], copper [84,85], charcoal [56], graphite [86], and supported chromium [87,88] and ferric [89,90] oxides, have been found to be effective for this conversion.”

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.
