ADSORPTION KINETICS ACCOMPANIED BY ADSORBATE DIFFUSION INTO THE SOLID

摘要

General equations are derived for describing the kinetics of adsorption accompanied by adsorbate diffusion into the solid. The main attention is focused on the case when the potential wells corresponding to the adsorbed overlayer are much deeper compared to those for the bulk. As an example, the kinetics of the deuterium uptake by Zr(0001) is analyzed in detail. References: 14
