The interaction of Rh with intrinsic defects of reduced Rh/CeO{sub 2} catalysts: A comparative XPS/UPS and {sup 1}H-NMR study
Abstract
X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS and UPS) as well as {sup 1}H nuclear magnetic resonance ({sup 1}H-NMR) experiments are reported on Rh surface-doped CeO{sub 2} (111)-oriented thin films and powder samples that are reduced with H{sub 2} at temperatures between 293 and 873 K. Two reduction processes at T {le} 573 K and T > 573 K are found which lead to two distinguishable states of the surface. These temperature regimes are denoted here as low temperature reduction (ltr) and high temperature reduction (Itr). In the ltr-regime the surfaces become hydroxylated and Ce{sup 3+} ions are formed as concluded from XPS. Correspondingly two{sup 1}H-NMR signals of hydrogen that is chemisorbed on Rh and on CeO{sub 2} are detected. In the htr-regime, CeO{sub 2-x} surfaces are by far less hydroxylated, which results from the desorption of H{sub 2}O and the formation oxygen vacancies. Simultaneously, Rh loses its hydrogen adsorption capability, whereas this property is practically constant in the ltr-regime. These findings are correlated to UPS measurements that give evidence for an electronic charge transfer from the CeO{sub 2-x} surface to Rh atoms. Finally this effect is interpreted in terms of the interaction between Rh atoms and oxygen vacancies at themore »
