Effects of internal noise for rate oscillations during CO oxidation on platinum surfaces.
We have studied the influence of internal noise on the reaction rate oscillation during carbon-monoxide oxidation on single crystal platinum surfaces using chemical Langevin equations. Considering that the surface is divided into small well-mixed cells, we have focused on the dynamic behavior inside a single cell. Internal noise can induce rate oscillations and the performance of the stochastic rate oscillations shows double maxima with the variation of the internal noise intensity, demonstrating the occurrence of internal noise coherent biresonance. The relationship between such a phenomenon with the deterministic bifurcation features of the system is also discussed.
