Reaction pathways for pyridine adsorption on silicon (0 0 1)

Density functional theory is used to describe the reactions of chemisorption of pyridine on the silicon (0 0 1) surface. Adsorption energies of six relevant structures, and the activation energies between them are reported. We consider in detail the dative to tight-bridge transition for which confli...
