Temperature progranuned desorption (TPD), also called thenual desorption spectroscopy (TDS), provides infonuation about the surface chemistry such as surface coverage and the activation energy for desorption [49]. TPD is discussed in detail in section B 1.25. In TPD, a clean surface is first exposed to a gaseous... 

Thenual desorption spectroscopy (TDS) or temperature progranuned desorption (TPD), as it is also called, is a simple and very popular teclmique in surface science. A sample covered with one or more adsorbate(s) is heated at a constant rate and the desorbing gases are detected with a mass spectrometer. If a reaction takes place diirmg the temperature ramp, one speaks of temperature programmed reaction spectroscopy (TPRS). 

While A

metal-water interactions are better probed by thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS) in which heat is used to detach molecules from a surface. TDS data are in parallel with A (and AX) data. This is illustrated in Fig. 19.35 The spectrum of Ag(110) shows only one peak at 150 K, corresponding to ice sublimation. This means that Ag-H20 interactions are weaker than H20-H20 interactions (although they are still able to change the structure of the... 

Desorption is important both because it represents the last step in a catalytic cycle and because it is also the basis of temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), a powerful tool used to investigate the adsorption, decomposition and reaction of species on surfaces. This method is also called thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS), or sometimes temperature programmed reaction spectroscopy, TPRS (although strictly speaking the method has nothing to do with spectroscopy). 

We have undertaken a series of experiments Involving thin film models of such powdered transition metal catalysts (13,14). In this paper we present a brief review of the results we have obtained to date Involving platinum and rhodium deposited on thin films of tltanla, the latter prepared by oxidation of a tltanliua single crystal. These systems are prepared and characterized under well-controlled conditions. We have used thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and static secondary Ion mass spectrometry (SSIMS). Our results Illustrate the power of SSIMS In understanding the processes that take place during thermal treatment of these thin films. Thermal desorption spectroscopy Is used to characterize the adsorption and desorption of small molecules, In particular, carbon monoxide. AES confirms the SSIMS results and was used to verify the surface cleanliness of the films as they were prepared. 

The apparatuses used for the studies of both ammonia synthesis emd hydrodesulfurization were almost identical, consisting of a UHV chamber pumped by both ion and oil diffusion pumps to base pressures of 1 x10 " Torr. Each chamber was equipped with Low Energy Electron Diffraction optics used to determine the orientation of the surfaces and to ascertain that the surfaces were indeed well-ordered. The LEED optics doubled as retarding field analyzers used for Auger Electron Spectroscopy. In addition, each chamber was equipped with a UTI 100C quadrupole mass spectrometer used for analysis of background gases and for Thermal Desorption Spectroscopy studies. 

The variations in the kinetic parameters (E, m,n) with chlorine coverage shown in Fig. 5 are entirely consistent with our studies by thermal desorption spectroscopy, which show the effects of chlorine... 

Thermal desorption spectroscopy and temperature programmed reaction experiments have provided significant insight into the chemistry of a wide variety of reactions on well characterized surfaces. In such experiments, characterized, adsorbate covered, surfaces are heated at rates of 10-100 K/sec and molecular species which desorb are monitored by mass spectrometry. Typically, several masses are monitored in each experiment by computer multiplexing techniques. Often, in such experiments, the species desorbed are the result of a surface reaction during the temperature ramp. 

One of the standard surface science methods for assessing the concentration and stability of a chemisorbed species is thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). An early paper by Redhead ( 7) developed the conceptual framework for certain cases. Many papers since then have expanded the applicability of this method. Recent work of Madix Q8) > Weinberg (9) and Schmidt CIO) is particularly noteworthy. Most of this work focuses on the desorption of a single molecular species and not on reactions in desorbing systems. However, qualitative features of the temperature dependence of reactions can be assessed using this method. Figures 1 and 2 taken from the... 

Temperature programmed desorption (TPD) or thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS), as it is also called, can be used on technical catalysts, but is particularly useful in surface science, where one studies the desorption of gases from single crystals and polycrystalline foils into vacuum [2]. Figure 2.9 shows a set of desorption spectra of CO from two rhodium surfaces [14]. Because TDS offers interesting opportunities to interpret desorption in terms of reaction kinetic theories, such as the transition state formalism, we will discuss TDS in somewhat more detail than would be justified from the point of view of practical catalyst characterization alone.
