      Heterogeneous catalysis on curved crystals: CO oxidation on Pt and Rh 

      García Martínez, Fernando (2022-02-17)
      Durante esta Tesis, se ha estudiado el efecto de átomos de baja coordinación (terrazas, escalones, escalones en zig-zag ¿) en la ignición de la oxidación de CO por parte de O2 en superficies de Pt y Rh. Para ello, hemos ...

      Reduced Carbon Monoxide Saturation Coverage on Vicinal Palladium Surfaces: the Importance of the Adsorption Site 

      García Martínez, Fernando; Dietze, Elisabeth; Schiller, Frederik; Gajdek, Dorotea; Merte, Lindsay R.; Gericke, Sabrina M.; Zetterberg, Johan; Albertin, Stefano; Lundgren, Edvin; Gronbeck, Henrik; Ortega Conejero, José Enrique ORCID (American Chemical Society, 2021-10-07)
      [EN]Steps at metal surfaces may influence energetics and kinetics of catalytic reactions in unexpected ways. Here, we report a significant reduction of the CO saturation coverage in Pd vicinal surfaces, which in turn is ...

      Structure Matters: Asymmetric CO Oxidation at Rh Steps with Different Atomic Packing 

      García Martínez, Fernando; Rämisch, Lisa; Ali, Khadiza; Waluyo, Iradwikanari; Castrillo Bodero, Rodrigo; Pfaff, Sebastian; Villar García, Ignacio J.; Walter, Andrew Leigh; Hunt, Adrian; Pérez Dieste, Virginia; Zetterberg, Johan; Lundgren, Edvin; Schiller, Frederik; Ortega Conejero, José Enrique ORCID (American Chemical Society, 2022-08)
      Curved crystals are a simple but powerful approach to bridge the gap between single crystal surfaces and nanoparticle catalysts, by allowing a rational assessment of the role of active step sites in gas-surface reactions. ...
