摘要
To demonstrate a new paradigm of dynamical control of surface structure and reactivity, we perform density functional theory calculations of the adsorption of several molecules and atoms to the surface of ultrathin Pt(100) films supported on ferroelectric PbTiO3. We show that reorienting the polarization direction of the substrate can dramatically change the chemisorption energies of CO, O, C, and N and alter the reaction pathways for dissociation of CO, O-2, N-2, and NO. We discuss the structural and electronic effects of a polarized substrate on the metal surface, and we suggest potential applications in tunable catalysis.
