2 THE DECOMPOSITION OF AMMONIA ON TUNGSTEN SURFACES by YU.KWANG PENG, DIPL. CHEM. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University (February) Yu Kwang Pang 1973

3 OOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (Chemistry) McMASTER UNIVERSITY Hamilton, Ontario. TITLE: The Decomposition of Ammonia on Tungsten Surfaces AUTHOR: Yu Kwang Peng, B.Sc. Dipl. Chem. (Cheng Kung'University) (Technical University Hannover, Germany) SUPERVISOR: Professor P. T. Dawson NUMBER OF PAGES: XV, 20S SCOPE AND CONTENTS: This thesis presents an experimental study of the decomposition of ammonia on tungsten surfaces. The investigations were made at ammonia pressures between 10-7 and 10-2 torr, and at temperatures between 200 and SOOoK by employing thermal desorption mass spectrometry and field emission microscopy. The surface species formed during the interaction were first isolated and the rate parameters for the formation and desorption of these species were determined. The properties of the adlayer of these species were also studied. Based on the rate parameters for the formation and desorption of these species a satisfactory mechanism for the decomposition of ammonia on tungsten surfaces has been deduced. ii

4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to express his most sincere gratitude to his supervisor, Professor P. T. Dawson, for his guidance and encouragement throughout the course of this work, and for his valuable criticisms and suggestions during the preparation of this thesis. The author wishes to thank Professors R. B. Anderson and C. Calvo for their helpful suggestions and reading of the manuscript. The author also wishes to thank his wife, Anita, for her patience and constant encouragement. Finally, the author wishes to acknowledge the receipt of financial support from the Chemistry Department for all the time spent in this university. iii
