Applications of Computer Simulations and Statistical Mechanics in Surface Electrochemistry (2009)

Rikvold, P. A., Hamad, I. Abou, Juwono, T., Robb, D. T., Novotny, M. A.

We present a brief survey of methods that utilize computer simulations and quantum and statistical mechanics in the analysis of electrochemical systems. The methods, Molecular Dynamics and Monte...

First-order Reversal Curve Analysis of Phase Transitions in Electrochemical Adsorption: A New Experimental Technique Suggested by Computer Simulations (2006)

Hamad, I. Abou, Robb, D. T., Rikvold, P. A.

The first-order reversal curve (FORC) method for analysis of systems undergoing hysteresis is applied to dynamical models of electrochemical adsorption. In this setting, the method can not only...

Reply to ``Remarks on the simulation of Cl electrosorption on Ag(100) reported in Electrochimica Acta 50 (2005) 5518" (2006)

Rikvold, P. A., Wandlowski, Th., Hamad, I. Abou, Mitchell, S. J., Brown, G.

We reply to remarks by Lang and Horanyi on the meaning of the notion of "electrosorption valency" used in I. Abou Hamad et al., Electrochim. Acta 50 (2005) 5518. It is concluded that, contrary to the...

New Cyclic Voltammetry Method for Examining Phase Transitions: Simulated Results (2006)

Hamad, I. Abou, Robb, D. T., Rikvold, P. A.

We propose a new experimental technique for cyclic voltammetry, based on the first-order reversal curve (FORC) method for analysis of systems undergoing hysteresis. The advantages of this...

Cl electrosorption on Ag(100): Lateral interactions and electrosorption valency from comparison of Monte Carlo simulations with chronocoulometry experiments (2005)

Hamad, I. Abou, Mitchell, S. J., Wandlowski, Th., Rikvold, P. A., Brown, G.

We present Monte Carlo Simulations using an equilibrium lattice-gas model for the electrosorption of Cl on Ag(100) single-crystal surfaces. Fitting the simulated isotherms to chronocoulometry...

Determination of the basic timescale in kinetic Monte Carlo simulations by comparison with cyclic-voltammetry experiments (2004)

Hamad, I. Abou, Rikvold, P. A., Brown, G.

While kinetic Monte Carlo simulations can provide long-time simulations of the dynamics of physical and chemical systems, it is not yet possible in general to identify the inverse Monte Carlo attempt...

Electrosorption of Br and Cl on Ag(100): Experiments and Computer Simulations (2002)

Hamad, I. Abou, Wandlowski, Th., Brown, G., Rikvold, P. A.

We present chronocoulometry experiments and equilibrium Monte Carlo simulations for the electrosorption of Br and Cl on Ag(100) single-crystal electrode surfaces. Two different methods are used to...
