CO oxidation, although seemingly a simple chemical reaction, provides us with a panacea
that reveals the richness and beauty of heterogeneous catalysis. The Fritz Haber Institute is …

Electron transfer (ET) is a fundamental process in physics, chemistry, and biology. 1 Charge
transfer determines phenomena like oxidation and reduction, bond activation and bond …

The preparation of thin oxide films on metal supports is a versatile approach to explore the
properties of oxide materials that are otherwise inaccessible to most surface science …

We all make use of oxide ultrathin films, even if we are unaware of doing so. They are
essential components of many common devices, such as mobile phones and laptops. The …

I review a concept that models heterogeneous catalysis based on a surface‐science
approach. It is shown that models catching part of the complexity of the real system, which is …

To many researchers outside the field of cluster science it may come as a surprise that much
can be learned of its relevance to catalysis, even restricting the discussion to ionized …

The electronic structure of ultrasmall Au clusters on thin MgO/Ag (001) films has been
analyzed by scanning tunneling spectroscopy and density functional theory. The clusters …

Nano and sub-nano particulate materials have been the subject of much recent theoretical
and experimental study owing to their novel physical and chemical properties, often quite …

The catalytic oxidation of CO on Cu3-cluster-decorated pristine and defective Mo2CO2
(MXene) monolayers (Cu3/p-Mo2CO2 and Cu3/d-Mo2CO2) was investigated by first …

This review provides an insight into the simulation of gold nanoparticles supported on oxide
surfaces, with particular emphasis on the applications in heterogeneous catalysis. Some …
