Research Abstract |
Iron-carbonyl molecules are deposited with high-dispersion on the graphite surface. By heating the surface, Iron carbonyl molecules are found to dissociate on the surface to CO and Fe and not to desorb molecularly from the surface. The product CO molecules desorb from the surface at 200-350 K which is significantly lower than reported desorption temperature of CO from Fe single crystal. The small CO adsorption energy has been ascribed to the interface interaction between iron-carbonyl molecules and the graphite surface.
