Structural Characterization of Complex Oxides for Oxidation Catalysis (B01)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Project B1 aims at delivering quantitative indicators of the real structure of crystalline, nanoscaled model catalysts. The model catalysts will be synthesized by chemical vapor synthesis and analyzed by a combination of X-ray scattering and diffraction, neutron and electron scattering and X-ray absorption spectroscopy, which give access to information about defect density and pair distribution function. The knowledge will contribute to unravel the effect of defects and surface hydroxyl groups on catalytic activity.
