The thermodynamic equilibrium shape of rhodium and palladium crystals are predicted under conditions from ultrahigh vacuum to high oxygen pressures using the Gibbs-Wulff construction. The analysis is based on data obtained from ab initio calculations for the adsorption of oxygen on the low-index (111), (100), and (110) surfaces, and the stepped (311), (211), and (331) surfaces. While the close-packed (111) facets dominate the shape in the low-coverage cases, the higher adsorption energies at the more open surfaces lead to a rounding of the crystallite. A linear correlation between the surface energies of the clean surfaces and the respective adsorption energies is found.
