CO dissociation induced by adsorbed oxygen and water on Ir(111).
Although CO does not dissociate on the clean Ir(111) surface, the addition of atomic oxygen induces CO dissociation at low temperatures (lower than 400 K); similarly, CO dissociation has also been observed on water co-adsorbed Ir(111) or water and oxygen co-adsorbed Ir(111).
