Influence of preadsorbed oxygen on the sign and magnitude of the chemisorption-induced resistance change for H2 adsorption onto Fe filmsMeasurements have been made of the chemisorption-induced resistance change for H2 adsorbed onto Fe film substrates predosed with fixed coverages of chemisorbed oxygen. The measurements were made at temperatures from 295 to 340 K and for estimated oxygen coverages of less than 0.1 monolayers. Two distinct resistance change components were observed in both the adsorption kinetics and the equilibrium isotherms: a positive component which is associated with the adsorption of H2 onto a clean Fe surface, and a negative component which was correlated with the presence of the chemisorbed oxygen. The resistance change isotherms can be fit with a model which assumes that each of the resistance change components result from dissociative chemisorbed hydrogen. Possible mechanisms for the chemisorbed-oxygen-induced negative resistance change are discussed.
