Cluster Catalysis with Lattice Oxygen: Tracing Oxygen Transport from a Magnetite (001) Support onto Small Pt Clusters

Wolfgang Harbich, Giulia Elisabetta Pacchioni, Ke Zhang

Oxidation catalysis on reducible oxide-supported small metal clusters often involves lattice oxygen. The present work aims at differentiating whether the reaction takes place at the cluster/support interface or on the cluster. To that purpose, we trace the ...
