The drive for atom efficient catalysts with carefully controlled properties has motivated the
development of single atom catalysts (SACs), aided by a variety of synthetic methods …

The study of processes concerning adsorption, diffusion and reaction of atoms and
molecules on surfaces is one of the core areas of surface science research. Resolving these …

Designed as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in engineering
and physical sciences who are seeking a general overview of surface science, this book …

Crystal growth far from thermodynamic equilibrium is nothing but homoepitaxy-thin film
growth on a crystalline substrate of the same material. Because of the absence of misfit …

When collimated beams of low energy ions are used to bombard materials, the surface often
develops a periodic pattern or “ripple” structure. Different types of patterns are observed to …

We review in this article the current theoretical understanding of collective and single
particle diffusion on surfaces and how it relates to the existing experimental data. We begin …

Abstract Chirality—or 'handedness'—is a symmetry property crucial to fields as diverse as
biology, chemistry and high-energy physics. In graphene, chiral symmetry emerges naturally …

Surface Properties of Electronic Materials is the fifth volume of the series, The Chemical
Physics of Solid Surfaces and Heterogeneous Catalysis. This volume indicates the present …

This review concerns the concept of multi-excitation entropy (MEE) and its consequences.
When a fluctuation involving a large number of excitations occurs, for example, when a large …

Metal anode-based battery systems have been deemed indispensable towards energy
storage renaissance engendering extensive research into strategies countering dendritic …
