Properties of oxygen sites at the MoO_3(010) surface: density functional theory cluster studies and photoemission experiments

TL;DR: In this article, a density functional theory (DFT) analysis of the O 2sp dominated valence band region of MoO 3 was carried out to examine the electronic structure of the oxide systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

An ab initio LAPW study of the α and β phases of bulk molybdenum trioxide, MoO3

TL;DR: In this paper, the structure and electronic properties of the α-MoO3 were studied with periodic LAPW calculations with the results in excellent agreement with the reported experimental pseudo-cubic results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface oxygen in catalysts based on transition metal oxides: What can we learn from cluster DFT calculations?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed cluster model studies by means of ab initio DFT method to examine electronic properties of different surface O atoms in several V2O5 and MoO3 systems and correlate them with catalytic behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electronic structure of MoO2. DFT periodic and cluster model studies

TL;DR: In this paper, the electronic properties of MoO 2 bulk and (0, 1, 1) surface are discussed. But the surface retains the metallic character of the bulk, and it is found that Fermi level is located within the band dominated by d molybdenum orbitals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of one-dimensional molybdenum oxide on Mo(112)

TL;DR: In this article, the atomic structure of a reconstructed Mo(1/1/2)-O(2/2/3) surface has been revisited using photoelectron spectroscopy with synchrotron radiation, scanning tunneling microscopy, infrared reflection absorption spectrography and density functional theory.

Some thoughts on the effects of MoS2 on the mechanical properties of thermoplastics

E.R. Braithwaite
- 01 Oct 1975 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of MoS 2 on the mechanical properties of thermoplastics is reviewed and the importance of surface chemical properties on mechanical properties is discussed. But the authors make a distinction between the effects of surface properties on the properties of amorphous and crystalline materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

X-ray diffraction study of vapour deposition of molybdenum silicides on molybdenum

TL;DR: In this paper, a haute temperature du metal avec SiCl 4 gazeux dilue dans un ecoulement d'hydrogene is used for the creation of revetements de siliciures.

Frictional properties of solid lubricants modified by polymer grafting

Marcel Brendlé
- 01 May 1977 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the surface of finely divided solid lubricants such as MoS2, (CFx)n and graphite is modified by grafting of different polymers.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relevance of the surface chemistry of MoS2, particularly with respect to its wettability: Part I

E.R. Braithwaite, +1 more
- 01 May 1976 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a series of MoS 2 powders were used of differing surface areas and amounts of surface oxidation and it was found that the differential rate and extent of spreading are inversely proportional to the specific surface area and directly proportional to surface oxidation.
