Reuter-Scheffler Model¶
A full overview of the model is provided in: ReuterScheffler.py
The RS model includes the following elementary reactions:
\begin{align}
\text{CO}_{(\text{g})} + \text{*-brg} & \overset{k_\text{CO}^\text{brg}}{\longleftrightarrow} \text{CO}^\text{*}\text{-brg} &\qquad \text{CO adsorption (bridge)} \\
\text{CO}_{(\text{g})} + \text{*-cus} & \overset{k_\text{CO}^\text{cus}}{\longleftrightarrow} \text{CO}^\text{*}\text{-cus} &\qquad \text{CO adsorption (cusp)} \\[6mm]
\text{O}_{2(\text{g})} + 2\text{*-brg} & \overset{k_{\text{O}_2}^\text{brg,brg}}{\longleftrightarrow} \text{O}^\text{*}\text{-brg} + \text{O}^\text{*}\text{-brg} &\qquad \text{O adsorption (bridge)}\\
\text{O}_{2(\text{g})} + 2\text{*-cus} & \overset{k_{\text{O}_2}^\text{cus,cus}}{\longleftrightarrow} \text{O}^\text{*}\text{-cus} + \text{O}^\text{*}\text{-cus} &\qquad \text{O adsorption (cusp)}\\
\text{O}_{2(\text{g})} + \text{*-cus} + \text{*-brg} & \overset{k_{\text{O}_2}^\text{cus,brg}}{\longleftrightarrow} \text{O}^\text{*}\text{-cus} + \text{O}^\text{*}\text{-brg} &\qquad \text{O adsorption (cusp + bridge)}\\[6mm]
\text{CO}^\text{*}\text{-brg} + \text{O}^\text{*}\text{-cus} & \overset{k_\text{oxi}}{\longleftrightarrow} \text{*}\text{-brg} + \text{*}\text{-cus} + \text{CO}_{2(\text{g})} &\qquad \text{CO oxidation (bridge + cusp)} \\
2\text{O}^\text{*}\text{-brg} & \overset{k_\text{oxi}}{\longleftrightarrow} 2\text{*}\text{-brg} + \text{CO}_{2(\text{g})} &\qquad \text{CO oxidation (bridge + bridge)} \\
2\text{O}^\text{*}\text{-cus} & \overset{k_\text{oxi}}{\longleftrightarrow} 2\text{*}\text{-cus} + \text{CO}_{2(\text{g})} &\qquad \text{CO oxidation (cusp + cusp)} \\
\text{CO}^\text{*}\text{-cus} + \text{O}^\text{*}\text{-brg} & \overset{k_\text{oxi}}{\longleftrightarrow} \text{*}\text{-cus} + \text{*}\text{-brg} + \text{CO}_{2(\text{g})} &\qquad \text{CO oxidation (cusp + bridge)} \\
