Approximating the 3D Character of a Van Der Waals Atom–Solid Potential

A truncated Fourier decomposition of the atom–substrate potential energy is developed for three-dimensional models of van der Waals systems, specifically for adsorption on the basal plane surface of graphite or the (111) face of a face-centered-cubic lattice. This provides a framework for analysis o...

Zusammenfassung:A truncated Fourier decomposition of the atom–substrate potential energy is developed for three-dimensional models of van der Waals systems, specifically for adsorption on the basal plane surface of graphite or the (111) face of a face-centered-cubic lattice. This provides a framework for analysis of a priori calculations of physical adsorption energies.
