Research Abstract |
We proposed a novel "open-system cluster model" for adsorbate-metal surface systems and applied it to the NO/Pt(111) and Cs/Cu(111) systems. We successfully estimated the potential energy curves for the adsorbate-excited states and the electron-transfer rate from the adsorbates to the metal surfaces. The novel method enables us to discuss elementary processes in photo-functional interfaces from the first principles.
