Journal ArticleDOI
Particle Size Effects in the Catalytic Electroreduction of CO2 on Cu Nanoparticles
TL;DR: The presented activity-selectivity-size relations provide novel insights in the CO2 electroreduction reaction on nanoscale surfaces and lend themselves well to density functional theory (DFT) evaluation and reaction mechanism verification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shape-dependent catalytic properties of Pt nanoparticles.
S. Mostafa,Farzad Behafarid,Jason R. Croy,Luis K. Ono,Long Li,Judith C. Yang,Anatoly I. Frenkel,Beatriz Roldan Cuenya +7 more
TL;DR: A correlation between the number of undercoordinated atoms at the nanoparticle surface and the onset temperature for 2-propanol oxidation was observed, demonstrating that catalytic properties can be controlled through shape-selective synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanocatalysis: size- and shape-dependent chemisorption and catalytic reactivity
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the size and shape of nanoparticles on chemisorption and catalytic performance is discussed and explained based on the existence of different atomic structures on the NP surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-range segregation phenomena in shape-selected bimetallic nanoparticles: chemical state effects.
Mahdi Ahmadi,Farzad Behafarid,Chunhua Cui,Peter Strasser,Beatriz Roldan Cuenya,Beatriz Roldan Cuenya +5 more
TL;DR: A consistent correlation between the NP surface composition and its electrocatalytic CO oxidation activity was established and a pivotal role in their surface composition after different thermal treatments was found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tuning Catalytic Selectivity at the Mesoscale via Interparticle Interactions
Hemma Mistry,Farzad Behafarid,Rulle Reske,Ana Sofia Varela,Peter Strasser,Beatriz Roldan Cuenya +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of mesoscale descriptors, such as the interparticle distance, on the selectivity of nanoparticle (NP) catalysts during CO2 electroreduction.
