The purpose of this review is to discuss progress in the understanding of electrocatalytic
reactions through the study of model systems with surface spectroscopies. Pure metal single …

This review has been structured to provide a bridge between the fields of electrocatalysis
and gas-phase catalysis on solid surfaces. Considerable emphasis has been placed upon …

Approach A Core reference on fuel cell catalysis Fuel cells represent an important …

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are used to describe the adsorption of H2, CO
and H2O on the close packed surfaces of Pt, Ru, Pt3Sn and PtRu. The calculations show …

We review recent work from our laboratory on a materials-by-design approach to the
development of new electrocatalysts. Model systems like the Pt (111) single crystal electrode …

One of the key objectives in fuel-cell technology is to improve and reduce Pt loading as the
oxygen-reduction catalyst. Here, we show a fundamental relationship in electrocatalytic …

The electrooxidation kinetics of 0.05-0.25 M formic acid, methanol, and ethanol in 0.1
Mhc104 on ordered Pt (lll), Pt (100), and Pt (l 10) surfaces were examined by means of FTIR …

The kinetics of the electrochemical oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) and CO/hydrogen
mixtures (0.1 and 2% CO) in sulfuric acid electrolyte at 25–62° C was studied on different …

We have investigated the anode reaction in direct methanol fuel cells using a database of
adsorption free energies for 16 intermediates on 12 close-packed transition metal surfaces …

The effects of surface segregation on the oxygen reduction reaction (orr) have been studied
on a polycrystalline Pt3Ni alloy in acid electrolyte using ultra high vacuum (UHV) surface …
