Investigating the Correlation Among Properties, Morphology and Composition of Multimetallic Alloy and Core-shell Nanoparticles and Novel Nanostructures
EMSL Project ID
22691a
Abstract
This USER proposal seeks the support of the EMSL User facilities for the study of nanostructural properties and compositions of metal and alloy nanoparticles using High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), and advanced Electrochemical Facility at EMSL facility. This effort involves collaboration with scientists at EMSL to use HRTEM, XPS and electrochemical instrumentation to study nanometer-sized metal, alloy, oxide nanomaterials prepared at SUNY. The objectives are 1) to develop a fundamental understanding of the correlation between morphology and composition of the nanoparticles, 2) to determine the surface oxidation states of nanoparticles, and 3) to establish the relationship between the nanostructures and their catalytic/sensing properties.
