The adsorption kinetics of CO₂ was experimentally characterized in ultra-high vacuum (UHV). Unexpectedly, high desorption temperatures (640 K, 170 kJ mol⁻¹) were seen. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest the stabilization mechanism: bicarbonate formation in the defected perovskite film due to CO₂ and H₂O coadsorption.
