Catalysis by gold has rapidly become a hot topic in chemistry, with a new discovery being
made almost every week. Gold is equally effective as a heterogeneous or a homogeneous …

Abstract Die Katalyse durch Gold ist schnell ein “heißes Thema” der Chemie geworden–fast
wöchentlich werden neue Entdeckungen gemacht. Gold ist gleichermaßen als heterogener …

We report a new method for stabilizing appreciable loadings (∼ 1 wt%) of isolated gold
atoms on titania and show that these catalyze the low-temperature water-gas shift reaction …

Gold has traditionally been regarded as inactive as a catalytic metal. However, the advent of
nanoparticulate gold on high surface area oxide supports has demonstrated its high catalytic …

Gold can be deposited as nanoparticles (NPs) with diameters of 2–5 nm and clusters with
diameters less than 2 nm on a variety of materials such as oxides, carbides, and sulfides of …

The production of hydrogen containing very low levels of carbon monoxide for use in
polymer electrolyte fuel cells requires the development of catalysts that show very high …

Gold ([Xe] 4f 14 5d 10 6s 1) is one of the most ancient themes of investigation in science and
arts, and its renaissance now leads to an exponentially increasing number of publications …

The field of nanoscience has undergone tremendous growth in the past decade as the
number of applications of nanoparticles and nanostructured materials have proliferated …

In recent years nanomaterials, such as metallic nanoparticles, nanowires, nanotapes,
nanotubes and nanocomposites, have attracted increasing interest for several technological …

Supported gold nanoparticles are widely studied catalysts and are among the most active
known for the low-temperature water–gas shift reaction, which is essential in fuel and energy …
