A neutral oxygen vacancy, a place where an oxygen atom should appear in the lattice but is instead replaced by two electrons, is represented by the yellow shape, which depicts the charge density of those electrons.
They took a common defect called a neutral oxygen vacancy — a place where an oxygen atom should appear in the lattice but instead two electrons are trapped.
Metal oxides are trickier: an occasional oxygen atom is missing, causing what Mavrikakis calls «oxygen defects.»
The hydroxyl radical consisting of one hydrogen and one oxygen atom, is one of the most common free radicals in the air and is therefore often referred as the detergent of the atmosphere.
A nitric oxide molecule consists of one nitrogen atom and one oxygen atom.
Early in 1969, Snyder and Buhl set up shop at NRAO's Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia and chose their first target: formaldehyde, an organic molecule made up of two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom tethered to an atom of carbon.
