Based on the nanostructured surface model that the(platinum,Pt) nanocones grow out symmetrically from a plane substrate,the local electric field near the conical nanoparticle surface is computed and discussed.On the basis of these results,the adsorbed CO molecules are modelled as dipoles,and three kinds of interactions,i.e.interactions between dipoles and local electric field,between dipoles and dipoles,as well as between dipoles and nanostructured substrate,are taken into account.The spatial configuration of CO molecules adsorbed on the nanocone surface is then given by Monte-Carlo simulation.Our results show that the CO molecules adsorbed on the nanocone surface cause local agglomeration under the action of an external electric field,and this agglomeration becomes more compact with decreasing conical angle,which results in a stronger interaction among molecules.These results serve as a basis for explaining abnormal phenomena such as the abnormal infrared effect(AIRE),which was found when CO molecules were adsorbed on the nanostructured transition-metal surface.
