Abstract

A self consistent jellium approach to the chemisorption of molecular oxygen on copper clusters is investigated and compared with local density MO - LCAO calculations. The jellium model is found to be well suited for chemisorption studies and the results explain the main trends in the measured chemisorption properties of O2 on copper clusters.
