Theoretical investigation of the surface reaction N-(ads)+H-(ads)-> NH(ads) on Ru(0001) using density functional calculations, variational transition-state theory, and semiclassical tunneling method

The title reaction is an important step in the synthesis of ammonia over ruthenium-based catalysts, which have recently received increasing attention. The study presented here is fully theoretical and uses a reduced dimensionality approach to the surface reaction. A potential energy surface is first...
