A DF-vdW study of the CH4 adsorption on different Ni surfaces

A systematic density functional (DF) theory based study of methane (CH4) adsorption on the three lowest-index Miller Ni surfaces plus two stepped Ni surfaces is presented. A standard GGA type functional (PBE) has been used to compute the total energy and the van der Waals (vdW) contribution included...
