This review covers the structure of, and chemical reactions on, well-defined cerium oxide
surfaces. Ceria, or mixed oxides containing ceria, are critical components in automotive …

Water is perhaps the most important and most pervasive chemical on our planet. The
influence of water permeates virtually all areas of biochemical, chemical and physical …

Understanding water/solid interactions is of great importance in a variety of fundamental and
technological processes, such as photocatalytic water splitting, heterogeneous catalysis …

Fundamental understandings of surface chemistry and catalysis of solid catalysts are of
great importance for the developments of efficient catalysts and corresponding catalytic …

Various copper–ceria-based composites have attracted attention as efficient catalysts for the
reduction of NO with CO. In this comparative study, we have examined the catalytic potential …

New information about the active sites for the water gas shift (WGS) reaction over Cu− CeO2
systems was obtained using in-situ, time-resolved X-ray diffraction (TR-XRD), X-ray …

We present X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and temperature programmed
desorption (TPD) results probing the surface chemistry of water on the oxidized and reduced …

The influence of water on the redox properties of ceria is pivotal to its widespread
exploitation spanning a variety of applications. Ab initio simulation techniques based on DFT …

This study reports and compares the adsorption and dissociation of water on oxidized and
reduced CeO2 (100) and CeO2 (111) thin films. Water adsorbs dissociatively on both …

We present a density functional theory investigation of the interaction between water and
cerium oxide surfaces, considering both the stoichiometric and the reduced surfaces. We …
