Abstract
Effects of the translational energy of incident oxygen molecules on surface processes from dissociative adsorption to subsequent associative desorption on Pt(1Â 1Â 1) have been investigated by means of supersonic molecular beam scattering. The reaction rate of associative desorption increases with the incident translational energy. The enhanced associative desorption can be attributed to nonthermal diffusion of dissociated oxygen, promoted by the translational energy of incoming molecules.
