Mechanism of the associative desorption of oxygen from the Pt(111) surface has been studied on atomic level by means of DFT/GGA calculations and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. It has been found that two oxygen adatoms can occur, with sufficient probability, in neighboring on-top sites, which...

Density profiles of a LJ vapor near a weakly attractive surface with long-range fluid wall potential was studied along the pore coexistence curve. There are two localized density maxima near the pore wall: the first one is caused by localization of the molecules in the minimum of the fluid-wall...
