This work presents a systematic investigation of copper clusters deposited onto slightly and highly reduced rutile TiO₂(110) single crystals and silicon wafers with native oxide films. The focus is on the electronic properties of the copper clusters and possible metal-support interactions as these can change the catalytic behavior of the catalyst. Specifically, we examine coverage-dependent core-level binding energy shifts and kinetic energy Auger signal shifts of the Cu2p_3/2 and CuLMM signals in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy as well as a Wagner plot analysis, Auger parameter analysis, and analyze the main support signals. The final-state-induced binding energy shifts dominant at lower coverages are related to the imperfect core-hole shielding of the positive charge remaining after photoemission. At higher copper coverages the more metallic character of the clusters, apparent from dominating initial-state effects, is more prominent. The shift in binding energy, kinetic energy, and Auger parameter are larger for copper on silica than for copper on reduced titania. The formation of Ti³⁺ or Si³⁺ indicates a charge transfer from the metal clusters to the support. For the first nominal monolayer of copper on titania a constant number of Ti³⁺ interstitials of 6% to 8% were observed regardless of the initial reduction degree of the titania. At the highest copper coverage, the local Ti³⁺ density at the (sub)surface increases to 11.0% and 11.7%. For the SiO_x surface the same could be observed as the Si³⁺/Si⁴⁺ ratio increased from 4% at the lowest copper coverage to 73% at the highest. For the inert SiO_x surface, we suggest an interaction of the copper with defects in the amorphous thin film.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22100,"journal":{"name":"Surface Science","volume":"749 ","pages":"Article 122547"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0039602824000980/pdfft?md5=f591f88bf8fa5527d3967ce11ef36ce2&pid=1-s2.0-S0039602824000980-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141699542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three distinct positions were defined in all surfaces to optimize each simulated model: “hydroxyl”, “edge” and “cavity”. The Au/H-magadiite and Ag/H-magadiite models were more stable at the “hydroxyl” sites. Meanwhile, in the aluminated surfaces, the presence of an extra hydrogen atom (here called H_extra, located in the “edge” region) was responsible for a more stable situation of these metal atoms. On the other hand, the Pd and Pt single-atoms present in H-magadiite and H-[Al]-magadiites showed greater interaction with all the sites, compared to the Au- and Ag- models. Based on the binding energies and other electronic calculations, the aluminol site at H-[Al]-magadiites has the best capacity to support metal species. For example, the Pt/H-[Al]-magadiite showed the lowest binding energy (-2.64 eV for PBE and -2.93 eV for PBE-D3), the strongest charge interaction and the smallest Pt – H_extra distance (1.55 Å). The migration barriers (PBE) in Ag/H-magadiite, Au/H-magadiite, and Pd/H-magadiite were lower than 21.50 kJ·mol⁻¹, suggesting the high possibility of metal sintering. For all the cases, the PBE-D3 overestimated the barriers. Contrarily, the Pt/H-magadiite structures stabilized in the “cavity” region, inside the silicon rings of the silicate, and presented a migration barrier greater than 200 kJ·mol⁻¹.

This article provides a comparative evaluation of various wet texturing methods using alkaline solutions with or without additives commonly known as surfactants. One method uses sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to create a surface with a height of about 4.5 μm by texturing for about 30 min, while the other method uses potassium hydroxide (KOH) and other additions known as additives. Texturing was performed using chemicals for only 15 min to create a surface shape with a height of approximately 3.5 μm. Additionally, the two solutions showed reflectance of 8.01 % or 12.1 % in 400–1100 nm, respectively. Both processes used alkaline etching at 80 °C for saw damage removal (SDR) before texturing. These processes have also been investigated in terms of removing potential organic contaminants from surfaces. Characterization techniques used throughout the investigation included optical microscopy, surface reflectance measurements, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electron dispersive spectroscopy (EDS).

One of the most promising strategies to overcome this problem is to introduce a specific selective interaction between the reactant and the catalytically active site, directing the chemical transformations towards the desired route. This interaction can be imposed via functionalization of a solid catalyst with organic ligands, promoting the desired pathway via steric constrain and/or electronic effects. The microscopic-level understanding of the underlying surface processes is an important prerequisite for rational design of such new class of ligand-functionalized catalytic materials. In this perspective, we present an overview over our recent mechanistic studies on heterogeneous Pd(111) catalysts functionalized with different types of organic ligands for chemoselective hydrogenation of a,b-unsaturated aldehyde acrolein. Employing a combination of real space microscopic (STM) and <em>in operando</em> spectroscopic (IRAS) surface sensitive techniques, we show that self-ordered active ligand layers are formed under operational conditions and identify their chemical nature and the geometric arrangement on the surface turning over. Deposition of a ligand layer renders Pd highly active and nearly 100 % selective toward propenol formation by promoting acrolein adsorption in a specific adsorption configuration via the O atom of the C = O bond. In this adsorption configuration, acrolein can be hydrogenated first to the desired reaction intermediate propenoxy species followed by formation of the target product propenol. Both the reaction intermediate and the final product propenol as well as their time evolution were identified by IRAS and gas phase analysis via quadrupole mass spectrometry (QMS). Particular focus of these studies was on the role of geometric and electronic effects imposed by specific functional groups purposefully introduced in the ligand layer. Obtained atomistic-level insights into the formation and dynamic evolution of the active ligand layer under operational conditions as well as into the role of geometric vs. electronic effects imposed by the ligand provide important input required for controlling chemoselectivity by purposeful surface functionalization.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22100,"journal":{"name":"Surface Science","volume":"748 ","pages":"Article 122539"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0039602824000906/pdfft?md5=4f4c22dcd8273aa336c1d93b1247020c&pid=1-s2.0-S0039602824000906-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141438358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We considered different molecular orientations and adsorption sites of the halogens and obtained their corresponding ground-state structures. We obtained initial molecular orientation (IMO) and initial adsorption site (IAS), i.e., IMO-IAS combinations that give the minimum energy configurations for each of the X₂/Fe/W(110) systems. Our results shows that all the molecules studied in this work are chemisorbed on the Fe surface. Also, the halogen atoms may be adsorbed dissociatively on the <em>hollow</em> sites in such a way that an X₂ separates into two X atoms with each of the atoms located at two nearby <em>hollow</em> sites. Similarly, we found IMO-IAS combinations which resulted in a non-dissociative adsorption. In the latter, the pre-relaxed IMO-IAS is maintained even after the structural relaxation. The most stable configuration for the X₂ dihalogen molecule in this case is either the <em>top</em> or <em>bridge</em> site while the halogen is in perpendicular orientation to the Fe surface.
