The catalytic activity of deposited Pt-7 clusters has been studied as a function of the reduction state of the TiO2(110)-(1 x 1) support for the CO oxidation reaction. While a slightly reduced support gives rise to a high catalytic activity of the adpartic ...
We determined the CO oxidation rates for size-selected Pt-n (n is an element of {3,7,10}) clusters deposited onto TiO2(110). In addition, we investigated the cluster morphologies and their mean sizes before and after the reaction. While the clusters are fa ...
This thesis is devoted to the study of the catalytic activity of small supported metal clusters. The TiO2(110)-(1×1) supported platinum cluster activity towards CO oxidation, its correlation with the cluster morphology, support properties, and the cluster ...
