Journal ArticleDOI
Cooperativity and Dynamics Increase the Performance of NiFe Dry Reforming Catalysts
Sung Min Kim,Paula M. Abdala,Tigran Margossian,Davood Hosseini,Lucas Foppa,Andac Armutlulu,Wouter van Beek,Aleix Comas-Vives,Christophe Copéret,Christoph R. Müller +9 more
TL;DR: Owing to the high activity of the material and the absence of any XRD signature of FeO, it is very likely that FeO is formed as small domains of a few atom layer thickness covering a fraction of the surface of the Ni-rich particles, ensuring a close proximity of the carbon removal (FeO) and methane activation (Ni).
Journal ArticleDOI
Single Site Cobalt Substitution in 2D Molybdenum Carbide (MXene) Enhances Catalytic Activity in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction.
Denis A. Kuznetsov,Zixuan Chen,Priyank V. Kumar,Athanasia Tsoukalou,Agnieszka M. Kierzkowska,Paula M. Abdala,Olga V. Safonova,Alexey Fedorov,Christoph R. Müller +8 more
TL;DR: This work expands the compositional space of the MXene family by introducing a material with site-isolated cobalt centers embedded in the stable matrix of Mo2CTx, on par with the best performing non-noble metal-based HER catalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tailoring Lattice Oxygen Binding in Ruthenium Pyrochlores to Enhance Oxygen Evolution Activity
Denis A. Kuznetsov,Muhammad Awais Naeem,Priyank V. Kumar,Paula M. Abdala,Alexey Fedorov,Christoph R. Müller +5 more
TL;DR: This work introduces a novel catalyst with improved OER perfor-mance, Y1.8Cu0.8M0.2Ru2O7-δ, and provides general guidelines for the design of active electrocatalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural Evolution and Dynamics of an In2O3 Catalyst for CO2 Hydrogenation to Methanol: An Operando XAS-XRD and In Situ TEM Study.
Athanasia Tsoukalou,Paula M. Abdala,Dragos Stoian,Xing Huang,Marc Georg Willinger,Alexey Fedorov,Christoph R. Müller +6 more
TL;DR: In situ TEM revealed an electron beam assisted transformation of In2O3 nanoparticles into a dynamic structure in which crystalline and amorphous phases co-exist and continuously interconvert.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly Active and Stable Iridium Pyrochlores for Oxygen Evolution Reaction
Dmitry Lebedev,Mauro Povia,Kay Waltar,Paula M. Abdala,Ivano E. Castelli,Emiliana Fabbri,Maria Valeria Blanco,Alexey Fedorov,Christophe Copéret,Nicola Marzari,Thomas J. Schmidt,Thomas J. Schmidt +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a synthetic approach to the iridium pyrochlores -complex oxides of iridium with reduced content of the noble metal as compared to IrO2.
