ABSTRACT
The indium phosphide (001) surface provides a unique chemical environment for studying the reactivity of hydrogen toward the electron-deficient group IIIA element, indium. Hydrogen adsorption on the In-rich delta(2 x 4) reconstruction produced a neutral, covalently bound bridging indium hydride. Using vibrational spectroscopy and ab initio cluster calculations, two types of bridging hydrides were identified, a (mu-H)In(2) and a (mu-H)(2)In(3) "butterfly-like" structure. These structures were formed owing to the large thermodynamic driving force for adsorption of H atoms on solid-state indium dimers.
