“…The RPBE functional has been extensively used for nitrogen adsorption on metals [24,28,29], it corrects for some overbinding produced by the PW91 functional [27], however it may result in an overestimation of dissociation barriers. Computations were performed with either 9 or 13 k-points in the symmetry reduced set, and a cutoff energy of 300 eV, as in previous work [20]. Molecules were adsorbed in a 2 · 2 unit cell on a 5 layer slab with structure optimized by allowing the outer two W layers to relax (the relaxed structure is essentially identical to the bulk truncation).…”
