Title: Water–gas shift reaction over gold nanoparticles dispersed on nanostructured CeO_x–TiO₂(110) surfaces: Effects of high ceria coverage

Abstract

In this study, scanning tunnelling microscopy has been used to study the morphology of an overlayer of ceria in contact with a TiO₂(110) substrate. Two types of domains were observed after ceria deposition. An ordered ceria film covered half of the surface and high-resolution imaging suggested a near-c(6 × 2) relationship to the underlying TiO₂(110)-(1 × 1). The other half of the surface comprised CeO_x nanoparticles and reconstructed TiOx supported on TiO₂(110)-(1 × 1). Exposure to a small amount of gold resulted in the formation of isolated gold atoms and small clusters on the ordered ceria film and TiO₂(110)-(1 × 1) areas, which exhibited significant sintering at 500 K and showed strong interaction between the sintered gold clusters and the domain boundaries of the ceria film. The Au/CeO_x/TiO₂(110) model system proved to be a good catalyst for the water–gas shift (WGS) exhibiting much higher turnover frequencies (TOFs) than Cu(111) and Pt(111) benchmarks, or the individual Au/TiO₂(110) and Au/CeO₂(111) systems. For Au/CeO_x/TiO₂(110) catalysts, there was a decrease in catalytic activity with increasing ceria coverage that correlates with a reduction in the concentration of Ce³⁺ formed during WGS reaction conditions.

Gold Nanoparticles on Ceria: Importance of O Vacancies in the Activation of Gold

Journal Article Rodriguez, J ; Wang, X ; Liu, P ; ... - Topics in Catalysis

Synchrotron-based techniques (high-resolution photoemission, in-situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and time-resolved X-ray diffraction) have been used to study the destruction of SO{sub 2} and the water-gas shift (WGS, CO + H{sub 2}O {yields} H{sub 2} + CO{sub 2}) reaction on a series of gold/ceria systems. The adsorption and chemistry of SO{sub 2} was investigated on Au/CeO{sub 2}(111) and AuO{sub x} /CeO{sub 2} surfaces. The heat of adsorption of the molecule on Au nanoparticles supported on stoichiometric CeO{sub 2}(111) was 4-7 kcal/mol larger than on Au(111). However, there was negligible dissociation of SO{sub 2} on the Au/CeO{sub 2}(111) surfaces. The full decompositionmore »« less

Growth, sintering, and chemical states of Co supported on reducible CeO₂(111) thin films: The effects of the metal coverage and the nature of the support

Journal Article Zhou, Jing ; Du, Linze ; Braedt, Daniel L. ; ... - Journal of Chemical Physics

The growth, sintering, and interaction of cobalt with ceria were studied under ultrahigh vacuum conditions by vapor-deposition of Co onto well-defined CeOx(111) (1.5 < x < 2) thin films grown on Ru(0001). Charge transfer from Co to ceria occurs upon deposition of Co on CeO_1.96 and partially reduced CeO_1.83 at 300 K. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies show that Co is oxidized to Co²⁺ species at the cost of the reduction of Ce⁴⁺ to Ce³⁺, at a lesser extent on reduced ceria. Co²⁺ is the predominant species on CeO_1.96 at low Co coverages (e.g., ≤0.20 ML). The ratio of metallic Co/Co²⁺more »« less

Importance of Low Dimensional CeO _x Nanostructures in Pt/CeO _x –TiO ₂ Catalysts for the Water–Gas Shift Reaction

Journal Article Luo, Si ; Barrio, Laura ; Nguyen-Phan, Thuy-Duong ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry. C

CO₂ and H₂ production from the water–gas shift (WGS) reaction was studied over Pt/CeO_x–TiO₂ catalysts with incremental loadings of CeO_x, which adopts variations in the local morphology. The lowest loading of CeO_x (1 wt % to 0.5 at. %) that is configured in its smallest dimensions exhibited the best WGS activity over larger dimensional structures. We attribute this to several factors including the ultrafine dispersed one-dimensional nanocluster geometry, a large concentration of Ce³⁺ and enhanced reducibility of the low loadings. We utilized several in situ experiments to monitor the active state of the catalyst during the WGS reaction. X-ray diffractionmore »« less

Inverse Catalysts for CO Oxidation: Enhanced Oxide–Metal Interactions in MgO/Au(111), CeO₂/Au(111), and TiO₂/Au(111)

Journal Article Palomino, Robert M. ; Gutiérrez, Ramón A. ; Liu, Zongyuan ; ... - ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering

Au(111) does not bind CO and O₂ well. The deposition of small nanoparticles of MgO, CeO₂, and TiO₂ on Au(111) produces excellent catalysts for CO oxidation at room temperature. In an inverse oxide/metal configuration there is a strong enhancement of the oxide–metal interactions, and the inverse catalysts are more active than conventional Au/MgO(001), Au/CeO₂(111), and Au/TiO₂(110) catalysts. An identical trend was seen after comparing the CO oxidation activity of TiO2/Au and Au/TiO₂ powder catalysts. In the model systems, the activity increased following the sequence: MgO/Au(111) < CeO₂/Au(111) < TiO₂/Au(111).

In Situ Time-Resolved Characterization of Au-CeO2 Catalysts During Water Gas Shift Reactions: presence of Au and O Vacancies in the Active Phase

Journal Article Wang, X ; Rodriguez, J ; Hanson, J ; ... - J. Chem. Phys.

Synchrotron-based in situ time-resolved x-ray diffraction and x-ray absorption spectroscopies were used to study the behavior of nanostructured {l_brace}Au+AuO{sub x}{r_brace}-CeO{sub 2} catalysts under the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction. At temperatures above 250 C, a complete AuO{sub x}{yields}Au transformation was observed with high catalytic activity. Photoemission results for the oxidation and reduction of Au nanoparticles supported on rough ceria films or a CeO{sub 2}(111) single crystal corroborate that cationic Au{sup {delta}} species cannot be the key sites responsible for the WGS activity at high temperatures. The rate determining steps for the WGS seem to occur at the gold-ceria interface, with themore »« less
