Band structure analysis of (1 × 2)-H/Pd(110)-pr

A novel method of band structure analysis based on the atomic orbital (AO) coefficients in LCAO-DFT has been applied to the (1 × 2)-H/Pd(110)-pr system. The analysis has revealed symmetry-dependent Pd 4d band splitting due to H ligand effects; ensemble effects due to the (1 × 2) Pd reconstruction are shown to be relatively minor.
