Supported clusters of transition metal atoms are key components of heterogeneous catalysts. Understanding their interaction with small molecular species is therefore an important step in catalyst design. In this work, we provide a detailed first-principles investigation of the adsorption properties of CO and CO2 on Pt-n (n = 1, 2) clusters supported by a gamma-Al2O3 (1 0 0) substrate. In particular, important parameters such as the stability of the Pt clusters, molecular adsorption energies and vibration frequencies were investigated. All Pt-2 clusters exhibit lower adsorption energies than their monoatomic counterparts, especially single Pt atoms embedded in the surface of the support. Atomically preadsorbed Pt acts as an anchor for the CO molecule, increasing its adsorption energy compared to the bare surface. The support actively participates in stabilizing the adsorbates and a markedly different behaviour can be expected depending on the adsorption site being on the surface of small Pt clusters or on the Pt/support interface. Vibrational frequencies of CO and CO2 adsorbed on the supported clusters can be used to gain insight into the degree of dispersion of the metallic component of the catalyst, and can be profitably used in the design of novel single-atom catalysts (SACs).

Combined effect of point defects and layer number on the adsorption of benzene and toluene on graphene
Akay, Tugce Irfan; Toffoli, Daniele; Toffoli, Hande (Elsevier BV, 2019-06-30)
Understanding the adsorption properties of organic molecules on graphene-based substrates is important for such applications as air and water filters. Pristine graphene is often the model substrate used in the theoretical investigations of this problem. While useful, pristine single-layer graphene is however an idealized model. In this work, we assess the effect of the presence of point defects (single vacancy, divacancy, and the Stone-Wales defect) in single-layer and bilayer graphene on the energetics of ...
Assessing effects of (3-aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane self-assembled layers on surface characteristics of organosilane-grafted moisture-crosslinked polyethylene substrate: A comparative study between chemical vapor deposition and plasma-facilitated in situ grafting methods
Sarkari, Navid Mostofi; Doğan, Öznur; Bat, Erhan; Mohseni, Mohsen; Ebrahimi, Morteza (Elsevier BV, 2019-12-15)
Silane coupling agents can act as bonding intermediates at the interface of two dissimilar materials by altering surface properties. In this study, (3-aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane (APTMS) was used as a silane precursor for vapor-phase deposition on organosilane-grafted moisture-crosslinked polyethylene (Si-XLPE) substrate. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and plasma-facilitated in situ grafting methods (grafting-from and grafting-onto) were employed to graft APTMS, and the consequent effects on surface of S...
A feasibility study for controlling self-organized production of plasmonic enhancement interfaces for solar cells
Borra, Mona Zolfaghari; Gullu, Seda Kayra; Es, Fırat; Demircioğlu, Olgu; Günöven, Mete; Turan, Raşit; Bek, Alpan (Elsevier BV, 2014-11-01)
The decoration of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) by the self-organized mechanism of dewetting is utilized as a suitable method for plasmonic interface integration to large area full-scale solar cell (SC) devices. Reflection measurements are performed on both flat and textured silicon (Si) SCs in order to investigate the local plasmonic resonances of the MNPs. The effects of particle size and thickness of silicon nitride (Si3N4)anti-reflection coating layer are investigated by reflection measurements and the shi...
Suitable alkaline for graphene peeling grown on metallic catalysts using chemical vapor deposition
KARAMAT, SHUMAİLA; Sonusen, S.; ÇELİK, ÜMİT; UYSALLI, YİĞİT; Oral, Ahmet (Elsevier BV, 2016-04-15)
In chemical vapor deposition, the higher growth temperature roughens the surface of the metal catalyst and a delicate method is necessary for the transfer of graphene from metal catalyst to the desired substrates. In this work, we grow graphene on Pt and Cu foil via ambient pressure chemical vapor deposition (AP-CVD) method and further alkaline water electrolysis was used to peel off graphene from the metallic catalyst. We used different electrolytes i.e., sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH),...
Enhanced peak separation in XPS with external biasing
Ertaş, Gülay; Suzer, S (Elsevier BV, 2005-08-15)
We have demonstrated that the An 4f peaks of the capped gold nanoparticles deposited on a SiO2 (20 nm)/Si substrate can be separated form the An 4f peaks of a gold metal strip, in contact with the same sample, by application of an external voltage bias to the sample rod while recording the XPS spectra. The external bias controls the flow of low-energy electrons falling on to the sample which in-turn controls the extent of the differential charging of the oxide layer leading to shifts in the binding energy o...
