Shift in binding site preference during oxygen adsorption on Au(111) at higher coverages and its impact on the thermodynamic phase diagram

Pranali Chavan, E. V. Charan Reddy, Abhijit Chatterjee

Adsorbed oxygen acts as a critical active species in industrial gold catalysis. The O/Au(111) phase diagram exhibits three ordered surface phases and coverage-dependent site preferences that dictate reactive oxygen structures.
