NO molecules adsorbed on a Pt(111) surface from dipping in an acidic nitrite solution are studied by near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) techniques. LEED patterns and STM images show that no long range ordered structures are formed after NO adsorption on a Pt(111) surface. Although the total NO coverage is very low, spectroscopic features in N K-edge and O K-edge absorption spectra have been singled out and related to the different species induced by this preparation method. From these measurements it is concluded that the NO molecule is adsorbed trough the N atom in an upright conformation. The maximum saturation coverage is about 0.3 monolayers, and although nitric oxide is the major component, nitrite and nitrogen species are slightly co-adsorbed on the surface. The results obtained from this study are compared with those previously reported in the literature for NO adsorbed on Pt(111) under UHV conditions.

The orbital magnetic moment of a Co adatom on a Pt(111) surface is calculated in good agreement with experimental data making use of the LSDA+U method. It is shown that both electron correlation induced orbital polarization and structural relaxation
play essential roles in orbital moment formation. The microscopic origins of the orbital moment enhancement are discussed.
Surface X-ray scattering studies of electrochemical Stern layer are reported. The Stern layers formed at the interfaces of RuO2 (110) and (100) in 0.1 M CsF electrolyte are compared to the previously reported Stern layer on Pt(111) [Liu et al., J. Ph
ys. Chem. Lett., 9 (2018) 1265]. While the Cs+ density profiles at the potentials close to hydrogen evolution reaction are similar, the hydration layers intervening the surface and the Cs+ layer on RuO2 surfaces are significantly denser than the hydration layer on Pt(111) surface possibly due to the oxygen termination of RuO2 surfaces. We also discuss in-plane ordering in the Stern layer on Pt(111) surface.
Immobilization of polyoxometalates (POMs) onto oxides is relevant to many applications in the fields of catalysis, energy conversion/storage or molecular electronics. Optimization and understanding the molecule/oxide interface is crucial to rationall
y improve the performance of the final molecular materials. We herein describe the synthesis and covalent grafting of POM hybrids with remote carboxylic acid functions onto flat Si/SiO2 substrates. Special attention has been paid to the characterization of the molecular layer and to the description of the POM anchoring mode at the oxide interface through the use of various characterization techniques, including ellipsometry, AFM, XPS and FTIR. Finally, electron transport properties were probed in a vertical junction configuration and energy level diagrams have been drawn and discussed in relation with the POM molecular electronic features inferred from cyclic-voltammetry, UV-visible absorption spectra and theoretical calculations. The electronic properties of these POM-based molecular junctions are driven by the POM LUMO (d-orbitals) whatever the nature of the tether or the anchoring group.
Sodium, magnesium and aluminum adatoms, which, respectively, possess one, two and three valence electrons in terms of 3s, $3s^2$, and ($3s^2$, 3p) orbitals, are very suitable for helping us understand the adsorption-induced diverse phenomena. In this
study, the revealing properties of metal (Na/Mg/Al)-adsorbed graphene systems are investigated by mean of the first-principles method. The single- and double-side chemisorption cases, the various adatom concentrations, the hollow/top/valley/bridge sites, and the buckled structures are taken into account. The hollow and valley adsorptions, which, respectively, correspond to the Na/Mg and Al cases, create the extremely non-uniform environments within the Moire superlattices. This lead to diverse orbital hybridizations in Na/Mg/Al-Si bonds, as indicated from the Na/Mg/Al-dominated bands, the spatial charge density distributions and the orbital-projected density of states (DOS). Among three kinds of metal-adatom adsorptions, the Al-adsorption configurations present the strongest chemical modifications. The ferromagnetic configurations are shown to only survive in the specific Mg- and Al-adsorptions, but not the Na-cases. The theoretical predictions could be validated by experimental measurements and the up-to-date potential applications are included. Furthermore, the important similarities and differences with the graphene-related systems are also discussed.
A meteoroids hypersonic passage through the Earths atmosphere results in ablational and fragmentational mass loss. Potential shock waves associated with a parent object as well as its fragments can modify the surrounding atmosphere and produce a rang
e of physico-chemical effects. Some of the thermally driven chemical and physical processes induced by meteoroid-fragment generated shock waves, such as nitric oxide (NO) production, are less understood. Any estimates of meteoric NO production depend not only on a quantifiable meteoroid population and a rate of fragmentation, with a size capable of producing high temperature flows, but also on understanding the physical properties of the meteor flows along with their thermal history. We performed an exploratory pilot numerical study using ANSYS Fluent, the CFD code, to investigate the production of NO in the upper atmosphere by small meteoroids (or fragments of meteoroids after they undergo a disruption episode) in the size range from 1 cm m to 1 m. Our model uses the simulation of a spherical body in the continuum flow at 70 and 80 km altitude to approximate the behaviour of a small meteoroid capable of producing NO. The results presented in this exploratory study are in good agreement with previous studies.
