In-situ E(S)TEM Observations of Single Atom Dynamics in Catalytic Reactions
In heterogeneous catalysis gas (or liquid)-solid catalyst reactions take place at the atomic level at elevated temperatures. Understanding and control of complex catalytic reactions on…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
Aberration corrected environmental STEM (AC ESTEM) for atom-by-atom analysis of nanoparticle catalyst activation and deactivation mechanisms
The core design for the modern ETEM (1, 2), of which there are now some 20 replicates worldwide, has been modified to support full ESTEM…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
Using in situ environmental transmission microscopy and operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy to investigate ceria based diesel oxidation catalysts
A knowledge-based design of catalysts requires the determination of so-called structure-activity-relationships. Such correlations between the catalytic activity and its properties on the microscopic and macroscopic…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
The Dynamics of Active Metal Catalysts Revealed by In-Situ Electron Microscopy
Conventional high-resolution imaging by electron microscopy plays an important role in the structural and compositional analysis of catalysts. However, since the observations are generally performed…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
Dynamic oxidation and reduction of catalytic nickel nanoparticles using E(S)TEM.
For many materials, nanoparticles show enhanced catalytic activity and selectivity compared to their bulk state [1]. While catalytic nanoparticles have many industrial, economic and environmental…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
Monitoring the Dynamics of Heterogeneous Catalysts by Electron Microscopy
It is known that the shape of metal catalysts adapts to the chemical potential of the surrounding atmosphere and that the active surface evolves dynamically…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
Exposing New Atomic-scale Information about Materials by Improving the Quality and Quantifiability of Aberration-corrected STEM Data
Aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) is providing previously unattainable views of materials at the atomic scale. The quality of STEM data is now often…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
Nanoparticle Structure and Dynamics Studied Using Controlled Atmosphere Transmission Electron Microscopy
1. Center for Electron Nanoscopy, Technical University of Denmark, Kgs. Lyngby, Danemark
Nanoparticle and catalysis research makes extensive use of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In particular, environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM) has attracted considerable attention in recent…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
(S)TEM Study of the Influence of Synthesis conditions on the Nanostructure and Performance of Au/CeO2 Model Catalysts
Ceria nanoparticles exhibiting controlled morphologies have been studied as model supports of gold nanoparticles to establish correlations between surface crystallography and catalytic performance [1]. It…The 16th European Microscopy Congress 2016
In-situ atomic scale studies of ammonia synthesis over ruthenium nanocatalysts
Ammonia is an important chemical for the production of fertilisers and in chemical synthesis. Catalyst materials are employed to improve the rate of formation of…
