Abstract

We have studied the oxidation of the Ru(0001) surface by in situ microscopy during exposure to NO2, an efficient source of atomic oxygen, at elevated temperatures. In a previous investigation [Flege et al., Phys. Rev. B: Condens. Matter Mater. Phys., 2008, 78, 165407], at O coverages exceeding 1 monolayer, using the combination of intensity–voltage (I(V)) low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) and multiple scattering calculations for the (00) beam in the very-low-energy range (E ≤ 50 eV) we identified three surface components during the initial Ru oxidation: a (1 × 1)-O chemisorption phase, the RuO2(110) oxide phase, and a surface oxide structure characterized by a trilayer O–Ru–O stacking. Here, we use dark-field LEEM imaging and micro-illumination low-energy electron diffraction in the range of 100 to 400 eV to show that this trilayer phase is actually a RuO2(100)-(1 × 1) phase with possibly mixed O and Ru surface terminations. This identification rationalizes the thermodynamic stability of this phase at elevated temperatures and is consistent with the observation of catalytic activity of the phase in CO oxidation.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
