Chem Commun (Camb) . 2013 Jun; 49(61):6903-5. PMID: 23800761
By using high-pressure scanning tunneling microscopy and ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we studied the mobility along with composition, structure and reactivity on the Pt(100)-hex surface. Adsorbates are mobile under 1...

Butcher D, Grass M, Zeng Z, Aksoy F, Bluhm H, Li W, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2011 Nov; 133(50):20319-25. PMID: 22070406
Many interesting structures have been observed for O(2)-exposed Pt(110). These structures, along with their stability and reactivity toward CO, provide insights into catalytic processes on open Pt surfaces, which have...

Nano Lett . 2010 Jun; 10(7):2709-13. PMID: 20568824
Carbon monoxide oxidation over ruthenium catalysts has shown an unusual catalytic behavior. Here we report a particle size effect on CO oxidation over Ru nanoparticle (NP) catalysts. Uniform Ru NPs...

Tao F, Grass M, Zhang Y, Butcher D, Aksoy F, Aloni S, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2010 Jun; 132(25):8697-703. PMID: 20521788
Three series of bimetallic nanoparticle catalysts (Rh(x)Pd(1-x), Rh(x)Pt(1-x), and Pd(x)Pt(1-x), x = 0.2, 0.5, 0.8) were synthesized using one-step colloidal chemistry. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) depth profiles using different X-ray...

Stepped single-crystal surfaces are viewed as models of real catalysts, which consist of small metal particles exposing a large number of low-coordination sites. We found that stepped platinum (Pt) surfaces...

Science . 2008 Oct; 322(5903):932-4. PMID: 18845713
Heterogeneous catalysts that contain bimetallic nanoparticles may undergo segregation of the metals, driven by oxidizing and reducing environments. The structure and composition of core-shell Rh(0.5)Pd(0.5) and Pt(0.5)Pd(0.5) nanoparticle catalysts were...
