Temperature programmed desorption of CO coadsorbed with atomic N on Rh(100), reveals both long- and short-range interactions between adsorbed CO and N. For CO desorption from Rh(100) at low coverage we find an activation energy Ea of 137±2 kJ/mol and a preexponential factor of 1013.8±0.2 s−1. Coadsorption with N parti…

The phase diagram of the double perovskites of the type ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{2\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{La}}_{x}{\mathrm{FeMoO}}_{6}$ is analyzed, with and without disorder due to antisites. In addition to an homogeneous half metallic ferrimagnetic phase in the absence of doping and disorder, we find antiferromagnetic phase…
