Abstract
We have extended a formalism, developed previously to describe linear systems [H.-C. Chang and W.H. Weinberg, J. Chem. Phys. 66 (1977) 4176; Surface Sci. 65 (1977) 153], to the case of nonlinear reaction models in an analysis of modulated molecular beam mass spectrometry. The formalism is derived explicitly for the case of nonlinear surface reactions, adsorption with a coverage dependent sticking probability, and coupled bulk diffusion and nonlinear reaction. Specific examples illustrating how the formalism may be applied include the catalytic decomposition of formic acid on platinum and the reaction of fluorine with tantalum.
