An atomic layer deposition process is used to modify size-selected Pt7/alumina model catalysts by Sn addition, both before and after Pt7 cluster deposition. Surface science methods are used to probe the effects of Sn-modification on the…
Single atom catalysts (SACs) based on 2D materials are identified to be efficient in many catalytic reaction. In this work, the catalytic performance of Pd/Pt embedded planar carbon nitride (CN) for CO oxidation, has been investigated via…
Heterogeneous catalysts based on sub-nanometer metal clusters often exhibit strongly size-dependent properties, and the addition or removal of a single atom can make all the difference. Identifying the most active species and deciphering…
Metal-support interactions are frequently invoked to explain the enhanced catalytic activity of metal nanoparticles dispersed over reducible metal-oxide supports, yet the atomic scale mechanisms are rarely known. Here, we use scanning…
Supported metal in the form of single atoms, clusters, and particles can individually or jointly affect the activity of supported heterogeneous catalysts. While the individual contribution of supported metal to the overall activity of…
This study evaluates the dissolution of the supported electrocatalysts Pd/C, PdSn/C, PdNb/C, and PdFe3O4/C during ethanol oxidation reaction for ADLFC applications. A scanning flow cell (SFC) coupled to an inductively coupled mass…
The coarsening of catalytically-active metal clusters is often accelerated by the presence of gases through the formation of mobile intermediates, though the exact mechanism through which this happens is often subject to debate. We use…
Pt catalyst particles on reducible oxide supports often change their activity significantly at elevated temperatures due to the strong metal-support interaction (SMSI), which induces the formation of an encapsulation layer around the noble…
The photochemical CO2 reduction reaction represents a zero-carbon pathway for converting CO2 into value-added chemicals, yet its industrial implementation has been constrained by low selectivity and product diversity. Dirac nodal arc…
The photoconversion of CO$_2$ to hydrocarbons is a sustainable route to its transformation into value-added compounds and, thereby, crucial to mitigating the energy and climate crises. CuPt nanoparticles on TiO$_2$ surfaces have been…
Efficient and selective CO2 electroreduction into value-added chemicals and fuels emerged as a significant approach for CO2 conversion, however, it relies on catalysts with controllable product selectivity and reaction paths. In this work,…
Methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) are potent greenhouse gases that represent substantial chemical energy. Conversion of these abundant waste gases to high-value chemicals typically requires high temperatures up to 1000 C, producing…
A simple method for the preparation of PdCo@Pd core-shell nanoparticles supported on carbon has been developed using an adsorbate-induced surface segregation effect. The stability and electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen reduction of…
Excessive CO2 emission from fossil fuel usage has resulted in global warming and environmental crises. To solve this problem, the photocatalytic conversion of CO2 to CO or useful components is a new strategy that has received significant…
The formation of green energy carriers such as hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) via photocatalytic processes provides a clean method for addressing environmental and energy issues. To achieve highly efficient photocatalysts for H2 and CH4…
Single-atom catalysts are potentially ideal model systems to investigate structure-function relationships in catalysis, if the active sites can be uniquely determined. In this work, we study the interaction of C2H4 with a model…
The interaction between hydrogen molecules and platinum (Pt)-decorated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with boron (B)-, nitrogen (N)-dopants or sidewall vacancies is discussed from first-principle calculations. The adsorption patterns of hydrogen…
In this work, we present a Pt decorated ZnO thin film-based gas sensor for hydrogen detection, fabricated using a sputtering technique and an in-situ Pt decoration approach. Specifically, we deposit a ZnO thin film on an interdigitated…
Photocatalytic nitrogen reduction under ambient conditions represents a promising pathway toward sustainable ammonia production. However, the fundamental mechanisms, particularly the role of photogenerated charge carriers and their…
Plasma etching, a critical process in semiconductor fabrication, utilizes hydrofluorocarbons both as etchants and as precursors for carbon film formation, where precise control over film growth is essential for achieving high…
