Growth of Ceria Nano-Islands on a Stepped Au(788) Surface
The growth morphology and structure of ceria nano-islands on a stepped Au(788) surface has been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low-energy electron diffraction (LEED). Within the concept of physical vapor deposition, different kinetic routes have been employed to design ceria-Au inverse model catalysts with different ceria nanoparticle shapes and arrangements. A two-dime...
متن کاملSurfactant-Coated Nanoparticle on a Stepped Surface
Metal and semiconductor particles of nanometer (nm) size feature a large surface-tovolume ratio and quantum-scale dimensions. Due to the distinct energetics of surfaces atoms and the unique energy-level structures, these nanoparticles possess extraordinary thermodynamic, chemical, electric, optical, and magnetic properties unlike those of isolated atoms and bulk systems. Equally importantly, th...
متن کاملSurface selective growth of ceria nanocrystals by CO absorption.
A significant morphology change from ceria nanoparticles to nanocubes was observed in ceria nanocrystals when CO molecules were introduced into the synthetic system, which is attributed to the surface selective growth driven by strong surface selective adsorption of CO onto the ceria surface.
متن کاملEpitaxial Mn(5)Ge(3) nano-islands on a Ge(001) surface.
The growth behavior and atomic structure of Mn germanide, grown on Ge(001), is studied with x-ray diffraction and scanning probe microscopy. The amorphous clusters of as-deposited Mn are crystallized into Mn(5)Ge(3) nano-islands with a size of ∼100 nm by solid phase epitaxy. At low coverage, the shape of the nano-islands is plateau-like, while at increased coverage it becomes mound-like. At the...
متن کاملA Model Calculation of Step-Flow Growth on Single-Layer Stepped Diamond (001) Surface
Step-flow growths of diamond on single-layer steps of hydrogenated diamond (001) surface have been investigated using the semiempirical molecular orbital method PM5. The chemical reactions at the first stage of growth have been calculated as a function of the charges biased to the substrates. When the frontier orbits of a pair of surface hydrogen atoms of step edge by negative charge 2 interact...
