We report chemical reactions catalyzed by solid catalysts have recently expanded rapidly from traditional heterogeneous catalytic reactions to photocatalytic reactions and further to plasmonic-catalytic reactions, however, the fundamental understanding of the commonalities and differences among heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis and plasmonic catalysis is not well established. Adsorption/reactions/desorption on solid catalyst surfaces commonly occur during these catalytic processes, thus surface chemistry of solid catalysts can be taken to bridge the fundamental understanding among heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis and plasmonic catalysis. The purpose of this themed topic is to report novel results and review literatures’ results on surface chemistry of heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis and plasmonic catalysis with an attempt to summarize the commonalities and discuss the differences. Also, we believe that the themed topic will be of great interest and exert high imparts in the surface chemistry and catalysis field.
