| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has been reported that the hydrogen capacity of hydrogen storage materials is enhanced by adding a small amount of metal nanoparticles such as platinum and nickel. The phenomenon is explained as a hydrogen spill-over process, where hydrogen molecules are dissociated on the surface of nanoparticles and then hydrogen atoms diffuse on the surface of the storage materials and are chemisorbed.
In the present study, we focus our target on the initial stage, i.e., a dissociation pathway of a hydrogen molecule on a metal nanoparticle. We performed an Ehrenfest dynamics simulation on the basis of time-dependent density functional theory. In the presence of a nickel dimer, hydrogen dissociation can occur when just a single electron is excited by at least 0.10 eV to the non-bonding LUMO level. The subsequent separation of the hydrogen atoms occurs with level crossings that temporarily move the excited electron back into the new HOMO level.
