Abstract

Monte Carlo simulations of thermal programmed desorption spectra (TPDS) are obtained and analyzed for general heterogeneous surfaces characterized by a dual-site-bond model, where the adsorptive energy topography is described in terms of a correlation length l 0. It is shown that the behavior of TPDS is such that the ambiguity arising in the characterization of the energetic topography through adsorption isotherms, where adsorbate–adsorbate interactions and topography effects compete with each other, is resolved in such a way that TPDS provide a more powerful characterization method.
