Description

The properties of the surface diffusion (SD) and the effects of the surfaces defects are studied using the cluster models and the embedded atom method (EAM). The results show that the activation energies of SD of H on Ni(100),(110) and (111) are 0.152 eV, 0.343 eV and 0.142 eV respectively. An adsorbeded Ni atom on Ni(100) will increase the potential barrier and activation energy for the diffusing H atom across this step, and causing the anisotropy of SD of H on the stepped Ni surface
