| dc.description | Various methods of generating electric fields in the vicinity of a metal surface are reviewed. In addition, the classical solution to Laplace's equation in parabolic coordinates is derived and quantum mechanical results for charged clusters are presented. | en_US |
| dc.description | The Local Density Approximation jellium model and the Local Spin Density Approximation cluster model are used to calculate the adsorption of hydrogen on a jellium metal and on a Rh cluster in the presence of electric fields. Calculated binding energies and geometries are in good agreement with experimental data. | en_US |
| dc.description | An extension of the LSDA cluster model to field adsorption of NO on Rh dimer is implemented with results that compare well with the latest experiment. | en_US |
