Oxygen vacancy (VO), the most common type of defect in metal oxides, could alter intrinsic
properties which are usually determined by crystal structures. Oxygen-deficient metal oxides …

Porous cobalt oxide nanoplates enriched with oxygen vacancies are synthesized using a
ligand-assisted polyol reduction method. This method enables large-scale synthesis that …

Advancement in heterogeneous catalysis relies on the capability of altering material
structures at the nanoscale, and that is particularly important for the development of highly …

Four groups of catalysts have been tested for hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of phenol as a
model compound of bio-oil, including oxide catalysts, methanol synthesis catalysts, reduced …

Heterogeneous hydrogenation is one of the most important industrial operations, and
reduced metals (mostly noble metals and a few inexpensive metals) generally serve as the …

Metal oxides play a very important role in many areas of chemistry, physics, and materials
science. 1-5 The metal elements are able to form a large diversity of oxide compounds. 6 …

High-entropy oxides (HEOs) have aroused growing interest due to fundamental questions
relating to their structure formation, phase stability, and the interplay between configurational …

Ni2P/SiO2, MoP/SiO2, and NiMoP/SiO2 with different Ni/Mo molar ratios were prepared by
temperature-programmed reduction (TPR). Their structural properties were characterized by …

Time-resolved X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption fine structure, and first-principles density
functional calculations were used to investigate the reaction of CuO and Cu2O with H2 in …
