Fundamental Studies of Nitrogen Oxide Surface chemistry: A Model System approach
EMSL Project ID
19198
Abstract
In our proposed research we will employ a model system approach to elucidate the structure-reactivity relationships of base-metal oxide nanostructures supported on planar oxide substrates. The major effort will focus on the atomic level understanding of NOx chemistry on BaO nanoparticles supported on Al2O3. This central effort will be supplemented by investigations on H2O, SO2 and CO2 as adsorbates/reactans and TiO2(110), CeO2(111)/YSZ(111), and FeO(111)/Pt(111) as substrates.
