Catalysts are the primary facilitator in many dynamic processes. Therefore, a thorough
understanding of these processes has vast implications for a myriad of energy systems. The …

This review addresses the most relevant aspects of vibrational spectroscopies (IR, Raman
and INS) applied to zeolites and zeotype materials. Surface Brønsted and Lewis acidity and …

Promoter elements enhance the activity and selectivity of heterogeneous catalysts. Here, we
show how methanol synthesis from synthesis gas over copper (Cu) nanoparticles is boosted …

Many catalytic reactions under fixed conditions exhibit oscillatory behaviour. The oscillations
are often attributed to dynamic changes in the catalyst surface. So far, however, such …

Heterogeneous catalysis is a chemical process performed at a solid–gas or solid–liquid
interface. Direct participation of catalyst atoms in this chemical process determines the …

This review article discusses the current and future possibilities for the application of in situ
transmission electron microscopy to reveal synthesis pathways and functional mechanisms …

Metal catalysts are of great importance in the modern chemical industry. It is well-known that
the structures of metal catalysts determine their properties. However, recent studies …

Nanoscience is a cross-sectional interdisciplinary field of research that can hardly be
overestimated in its enabling character for technologies in many application areas. A …

Energy‐related catalytic reactions have been extensively investigated in past years in order
to efficiently utilize clean and environmentally benign energy sources. In these systems, the …

Understanding the size-dependent behavior of nanoparticles is crucial for optimizing
catalytic performance. We investigate the differences in selectivity of size-selected gold …
