Ma. Khan et al., NO-CO SURFACE-REACTION ON A SQUARE LATTICE, Physical review. E, Statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics, 50(3), 1994, pp. 2156-2160
A Mont Carlo simulation of the NO-CO catalytic reaction on a square la
ttice is presented. It is shown that a steady reactive state for this
reaction exists when the adsorbed N atom is allowed to diffuse on the
surface. The window width of this reactive state diminishes as the dif
fusion rate decreases. The power law behavior of the window width agai
nst the diffusion rate has a critical exponent 1/3.
