Detailed information on the H/D isotope effects for adsorption on the surface and absorption in the bulk is important for understanding the nuclear quantum effect. To achieve this, we developed a new theoretical approach, namely, the combined plane wave and localized basis set (CPLB) method. By using the multicomponent quantum chemical method, which takes into account the quantum effect of a proton or deuteron, with the localized part of the CPLB method, direct analysis of the H/D isotope effect about adsorption and absorption is carried out. In this study, we performed a theoretical investigation of the H/D isotope effects for adsorption on a Pd(111) surface and absorption in bulk Pd. We clearly showed an H/D isotope effect on geometry during adsorption and absorption. Our developed CPLB approach is a powerful tool for analyzing the quantum nature of H/D in surface, bulk, and inhomogeneous systems.
