Description:
Detailed studies of elementary chemical processes on well-characterized single crystal surfaces have contributed substantially to the understanding of heterogeneous catalysis. Insight into the structure of surface alloys combined with an understanding of the relation between the surface composition and reactivity is shown to lead directly to new ideas for catalyst design. The feasibility of such an approach is illustrated by the synthesis, characterization, and tests of a high-surface area gold-nickel catalyst for steam reforming.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Besenbacher -- Chorkendorff I -- Clausen -- Hammer -- Molenbroek -- Norskov -- Stensgaard I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Mar 20;279(5358):1913-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉F.
