Alloy oxidation is complex and involves several critical processes that lack understanding on the atomic level. Here, we report an atomistic picture of the initial-stage oxidation of stepped Cu3Au(100) using a combination of surface science tools and modeling to illuminate the microscopic processes underlying oxygen-adsorption-induced structural and compositional changes. Pristine Cu3Au(100) consists of wide CuAu-terminated terraces and narrow Cu-terminated terraces separated by monatomic steps. Counterintuitive to the common expectations of the adsorbate-induced surface segregation of the more reactive alloy component, our observations demonstrate that the oxygen adsorption leads to the exfoliation of the outermost CuAu layer, thereby exposing the inner Cu plane to O attack. This occurs via the oxygen-assisted abstraction of Au and Cu atoms from step edges and CuAu terraces, which generates many Cu adatoms aggregating into Cu clusters and Au adatoms dissolving into the bulk. The oxygen adsorption onto fourfold hollow sites of the exposed Cu plane results in nucleation and growth of the c(2×2)−O superstructure, which can be fit well by the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmogorov theory with a site-saturated nucleation mechanism.

Alloying element segregation often occurs under a reactive environment but its interplay with the subsequent surface oxidation of the alloy remains unclear. Using synchrotron-based ambient-pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we dynamically monitor the surface segregation in Cu3Pt(100) in response to temperature and oxygen gas. Vacuum annealing leads to surface segregation of Cu along with the enrichment of Pt in the subsurface region. Upon switching to the O2 atmosphere, dissociative chemisorption of oxygen does not change the surface segregation profile from that under the vacuum annealing condition. A stepwise increase in the oxygen pressure results in the transformation pathway of Cu→Cu2O→CuO, in which the selective oxidation of Cu gives rise to further accumulation of Pt underneath the oxide/alloy interface that hinders the supply of Cu from the bulk to the oxide/alloy interface, thereby leading to the termination of the surface oxidation after the Cu2O→CuO conversion is completed. This differs from the transformation pathway of Cu→Cu2O→Cu2O/CuO for the oxidation of pure Cu and Cu-Au alloys, in which the oxidation of Cu continues and the Cu2O/CuO bilayer growth is constantly maintained. These key differences provide useful insight into alloy design for controlling the surface properties such as corrosion resistance and catalytic performance of Cu base alloys.
