FTIR study of CO adsorption and electrical characterization of novel Pt/TiO2 Nanowire Catalysts fabricated using Electron Beam Lithography

چکیده
Introduction Model supported catalysts on flat surfaces form an important link between single crystal surfaces and real world supported catalysts. The use of nanofabrication techniques to prepare such model catalysts has received a lot of attention in recent years [1]. In the present study Pt/TiO2 catalysts have been fabricated using e-beam lithography (EBL) and used to characterize the electrical properties of metal-support junction.

Adsorption of CO and NO on Ceria- and Pt-Supported TiO2: In Situ FTIR Study
Pt/TiO2, Ce/TiO2 and binary system PtCe/TiO2 catalysts were prepared by impregnation method and the structural properties of these catalysts were investigated by means of XRD, CO-TPD and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. As investigated by XRD, the composition of the prepared samples anatase and rutile phases with higher amount of anatase phase and its particle size was in the range of 1...
متن کاملLa2xSrxCuO4 superconductor nanowire devices
La2-xSrxCuO4 nanowire devices have been fabricated and characterized using electrical transport measurements. Nanowires with widths down to 80 nm are patterned using high-resolution electron beam lithography. However, the narrowest nanowires show incomplete superconducting transitions with some residual resistance at T = 4 K. Here, we report on the refinement of the fabrication process to achie...

Conventional supported Pt catalysts have often been prepared by loading Pt onto commercial supports, such as SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, and carbon. These catalysts usually have simple metal-support (i.e., Pt-SiO2) interfaces. To tune the catalytic performance of supported Pt catalysts, it is desirable to modify the metal-support interfaces by incorporating an oxide additive into the catalyst formula. H...
متن کاملSensing Performance of Precisely Ordered TiO2 Nanowire Gas Sensors Fabricated by Electron-Beam Lithography
In this study, electron beam lithography, rather than the most popular method, chemical synthesis, is used to construct periodical TiO(2) nanowires for a gas sensor with both robust and rapid performance. The effects of temperature on the sensing response and reaction time are analyzed at various operation temperatures ranging from 200 to 350 °C. At the optimized temperature of 300 °C, the pro...

Sum frequency generation ~SFG! vibrational spectroscopy is used to study the adsorption of CO at ;1 atm pressure on Pt nanoparticle arrays and Pt thin films. The SFG signal of CO adsorbed on platinum particles of 45 nm diameter is ;10 000 times larger than from CO on smooth Pt films. The large enhancement is explained by plasmon resonance and Maxwell–Garnett theory. The Pt arrays are prepared u...
