The field of single-atom catalysis (SAC) has expanded greatly in recent years. While there
has been much success developing new synthesis methods, a fundamental disconnect …

A heterogeneous catalyst is a functional material that continually creates active sites with its
reactants under reaction conditions. These sites change the rates of chemical reactions of …

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 …

Supported noble metal nanoparticles (including nanoclusters) are widely used in many
industrial catalytic processes. While the finely dispersed nanostructures are highly active …

Platinum-based heterogeneous catalysts are critical to many important commercial chemical
processes, but their efficiency is extremely low on a per metal atom basis, because only the …

Titanium dioxide is the most investigated single-crystalline system in the surface science of
metal oxides, and the literature on rutile (110),(100),(001), and anatase surfaces is …

Owing to their scientific and technological importance, inorganic single crystals with highly
reactive surfaces have long been studied,,,,,,,,,,,,. Unfortunately, surfaces with high reactivity …

The promotion of magnetic field on catalytic performance has attracted extensive attention
for a long time, and substantial improvements have been achieved in some catalysis fields …

In photoelectrochemical cells, sunlight may be converted into chemical energy by splitting
