Thermally stable Pt/mesoporous silica core–shell nanocatalysts for high-temperature reactions

TL;DR: The design of a high-temperature-stable model catalytic system that consists of a Pt metal core coated with a mesoporous silica shell and the design concept used in the Pt@mSiO(2) core-shell catalyst can be extended to other metal/metal oxide compositions.

Atomically-thin two-dimensional sheets for understanding active sites in catalysis

TL;DR: This tutorial review focuses on the recent progress in disclosing the factors that affect the activity of reactive sites, including characterization of atomic coordination number, structural defects and disorder in ultrathin two-dimensional sheets by X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy, positron annihilation spectroscopic, electron spin resonance and high resolution transmission electron microscopy.

Chemisorption of CO on the Pt(111) surface

TL;DR: The work function at first decreases, exhibits a (temperature-dependent) minimum at θ = 13, attains nearly the value of the clean surface at 12 and again exhibits a second (shallow) minimum around 0.68 as mentioned in this paper.
