For the O-Ni（311） system, there are three surface adsorption states and the fcc-3-fold site is metastable; the frequency of 75 meV[67 meV in high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy（HREELS） experiment] is attributed to the vibration at the hcp-3-fold site. For the N-Ni（311） system, however, there are only two surface adsorption states（no surface adsorption state was calculated atfcc-3-fold site）. In addition, subsurface states were predicted and all critical characteristics were obtained for the two systems.展开更多
