Exploring Strategies to Break Adsorption-Energy Scaling Relations in Catalytic CO Oxidation
An atomistic control of chemical bonds formation and cleavage holds the key to making molecular transformations more energy efficient and product selective. However, inherent scaling relations among binding strengths of adsorbates on various catalytic materials often give rise to volcano-shaped …

Optimizing Iridium Single Atom and Small Cluster Catalysts for CO Oxidation
Single atom catalysis is a relatively new form of heterogeneous catalysis. While single atom catalysts probably are already used in a lot of catalysis, their identification and characterization has only recently become common place. As we now have the ability to synthesis relatively pure systems …

Atomic-level Insights Into Atomically Dispersed Metal Catalysts
Atomically dispersed metal catalysts have demonstrated promise in heterogeneous catalysis with both nearly 100% utilization efficiency of precious metals and high intrinsic activity of metal sites. As an emergent type of atomically dispersed metal catalysts, single-atom catalysts (SACs) have been …

NOVEL TYPES OF TWO-DIMENSIONAL METAL CARBIDES AND THEIR APPLICATIONS: FIRST PRINCIPLES STUDIES
… of designed 2D metal carbides in electrocatalysis (including carbon dioxide reduction reaction and oxygen reduction/evolution reaction) and spintronic devices (including spin filter and spin valve) are systematically studied.

Structural and mechanistic identification of heterogeneous catalysts
… and enable more sustainable processes. Atomically disperse or single atom catalysts have shown particular promise for their ability to exceed nanoparticle catalysts with regards to activity, stability and selectivity for a growing number of chemical reactions. Understanding key …
