The current status of knowledge regarding the surfaces of the iron oxides, magnetite (Fe 3 O
4), maghemite (γ-Fe 2 O 3), haematite (α-Fe 2 O 3), and wüstite (Fe 1− x O) is reviewed. The …

This paper presents a review of the research which is focused on ferrite thin films for
spintronics. First, I will describe the potential of ferrite layers for the generation of spin …

Here, we synthesize a Au@ Fe3O4 core@ shell system with a highly uniform unprecedented
star-like shell morphology with combined plasmonic and magnetic properties. An advanced …

The morphology and thermal stability of Pt particles deposited on Fe3O4 (111) films were
studied by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and temperature programmed desorption …

The atomic-scale mechanisms underlying the growth of Ag on the (√ 2×√ 2) R 45°-Fe3O4
(001) surface were studied using scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional …

Global hydrogen production from catalytic reforming of hydrocarbons exceeds 50 million
tons annually and accounts for 2–5% of global energy consumption. The hydrogen product …

Modulating the shape and crystal-phase of nano-sized iron-oxide particles play an essential
role in the design of highly efficient heterogeneous catalysts. Iron oxides usually present as …

For understanding the catalytic activity of Fe3O4-supported gold catalysts, the adsorption
structures and energies of a single Au atom on the six terminations of the Fe3O4 (111) …

Fe 3 O 4 magnetic nanoparticles being used as seeding materials, Ag+ ions on the Fe 3 O 4
magnetic nanoparticles reduced to the metal form by tartaric acid using heated treatment …

The strength of metal–support bonding in heterogeneous catalysts determines their thermal
stability, therefore, a tremendous amount of effort has been expended to understand metal …
