Abstract

Stepped platinum surfaces can become hydrophobic when they are hydrogenated. Even though the Pt(533) and Pt(553) surfaces have similar geometries, the hydrophobicity on the deuterated surface is surprisingly different: on Pt(533) the surface is hydrophobic with water clustering at steps, whereas the entire surface is wet on Pt(553).
