Abstract
Recently [M. Kunat et al., Surf. Sci.474, 114 (2001)] a quenching of adsorbate-assisted adsorption ("autocatalytic adsorption") by defects has been observed for the system CO/Cu(110). A conceptually similar effect for CO adsorption on O–Ir(110) had additionally been reported before [U. Burghaus et al., Surf. Sci.384, L869 (1997)]. Presented is a simple Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) scheme which includes basically one free fit parameter and can reproduce both effects consistently.
