Abstract

The phase diagram of the monomer–trimer model has already been studied on the basis of (a thermal) Langmuir–Hinshelwood (LH) mechanism, the details of which can be found in the literature. Here, we have studied the effect of the Eley–Rideal (ER) mechanism on the phase diagram of this system. With the introduction of the ER process, the continuous transition of the LH model has been eliminated, while reactive window width and the production rate have been increased. The production rate can be represented by simple mathematical equations. The effect of monomer diffusion and desorption has also been studied for both models. Results are compared and some interesting observations are reported.
