The shape of metal nanoparticles (NPs) is one of the key factors determining their catalytic
reactivity. Recent in situ TEM observations show that dynamic resha** of metal NPs …

The atomic scale structure of the active sites in heterogeneous catalysts is central to their
reactivity and selectivity. Therefore, understanding active site stability and evolution under …

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 …

In the most influential monograph on colloid and interfacial science by Adamson three
fundamental equations of “physical chemistry of surfaces” are identified: the Laplace …

Nanoparticle (NP) catalysts are ubiquitous in energy systems, chemical production, and
reducing the environmental impact of many industrial processes. Under reactive …

Nanostructured materials play an important role in today's chemical industry, acting as
catalysts in heterogeneous thermal and electrocatalytic processes for chemical energy …

The dynamical structure of a catalyst determines the availability of active sites on its surface.
However, how nanoparticle (NP) catalysts re-structure under reaction conditions and how …

Metal nanoparticles (NPs) dispersed on a high‐surface‐area support are normally used as
heterogeneous catalysts. Recent in situ experiments have shown that structure …

Despite intensive research efforts, the nature of the active sites for O2 and H2 adsorption/
dissociation by supported gold nanoparticles (NPs) is still an unresolved issue in …

We demonstrate an atomic scale TEM observation of shape evolutions of Pd nanocrystals
under oxygen and hydrogen environments at atmospheric pressure. Combined with multi …
