摘要

通过密度泛函理论计算和热力学分析，研究了氢气和杂质气体（包括 O2、CO2、CO 和 N2）在 α-U(001) 和 α-UH3(001) 表面上的反应。根据计算，α-UH3 上吸附剂的结合强度比 α-U 弱，这表明 U-hydride 的抗中毒特性比金属态更强。在二元 H2-O2、H2-N2 和 H2-CO 气体环境下的 U 表面相图显示，N 和 C 元素更喜欢保持氢化物表面的氢化状态，而孤立的 O 原子则与α-U(001) 和 α-UH3(001) 发生有利的相互作用，这表明含氧杂质具有严重的中毒效应。部分氧化的 α-U(001)板的全局优化引起了表面几何重构，氧化表面的氢吸附活性与吸附位点的局部电子和原子特性成线性关系。

First-principles thermodynamical modeling of molecular reactions on α-U(001) and α-UH3(001) surfaces and their influence on hydrogen activation

Density functional theory calculations coupled with thermodynamic analysis have been performed to investigate the reactions of hydrogen and impurity gases including O₂, CO₂, CO, N₂ on α-U(001) and α-UH₃(001) surfaces. Binding strength of adsorbates on α-UH₃ is calculated to be weaker than α-U, suggesting enhanced poisoning-resistant properties of U-hydride compared to its metallic state. Surface phase diagrams of U under binary H₂-O₂, H₂-N₂ and H₂-CO gaseous environments show that while N and C elements prefer to stay in their hydrogenated states on the hydride surface, isolated O atoms favorably interact with both α-U(001) and α-UH₃(001), indicating the heavily poisoning effect of impurities containing oxygen. Global optimization of partially oxidized α-U(001) slabs induces surface geometry reconstruction and the activity of oxidized surfaces toward hydrogen adsorption can be linearly correlated with local electronic and atomic properties of the adsorption site.
