Abstract
Surface restructuring is a useful approach to modulating the properties of nanoparticles. A low-dimensional atomic-thickness active species may exhibit remarkably enhanced activity, in contrast to the inert nature of its bulk counterparts. Here, we report a procedure for growing in situ a low-dimensional monolayer-thick MoO3 entity from its bulk precursor. Traditional analysis of NO abatement catalyzed by vanadium-based materials implicates vanadium as the active site enhanced by the promoter element W or Mo. However, we report here that the atomic-thickness MoO3 film can function alone as an efficient NO abatement catalyst by itself; to achieve comparable performance with the industrial catalysts, it is not necessary to add vanadium oxide, which often has serious toxicity issues associated with it. We find that submonolayer MoO3 is responsible for the observed high activity. Electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy reveal that the monolayer-thick MoO3 surface phase is directly attached to the anatase TiO2 support. The ab initio quantum calculations predict that the bidimensional MoO3 surface phase would provide more electron back-donation to the antibonding orbital of reactants and thus more efficient reactant activation. The spectral evolution of in situ DRIFTS indicates that the redox mechanism over the low-dimensional MoO3/TiO2 involves both Brønsted and Lewis acid sites during the reaction cycle.

Abstract
The formation of surface oxides on metal surfaces is not only important in materials science, but also of significance in heterogeneous catalysis due to the fact that during most oxidation reactions the metal catalysts are inevitably oxidized, which may cause dramatic consequences in the reactions.

Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been widely used to predict the activity of catalysts based on the free energies of reaction intermediates. The incorporation of the state of the catalyst surface under the electrochemical operating conditions while constructing the free-energy diagram is crucial, without which even trends in activity predictions could be imprecisely captured. Surface Pourbaix diagrams indicate the surface state as a function of the pH and the potential. In this work, we utilize error-estimation capabilities within the Bayesian ensemble error functional with van der Waals correlations exchange correlation functional as an ensemble approach to propagate the uncertainty associated with the adsorption energetics in the construction of Pourbaix diagrams. Within this approach, surface-transition phase boundaries are no longer sharp and are therefore associated with a finite width. We determine the surface phase diagram for several transition metals under reaction conditions and electrode potentials relevant for the oxygen reduction reaction. We observe that our surface phase predictions for most predominant species are in good agreement with cyclic voltammetry experiments and prior DFT studies. We use the OH* intermediate for comparing adsorption characteristics on Pt(111), Pt(100), Pd(111), Ir(111), Rh(111), and Ru(0001) since it has been shown to have a higher prediction efficiency relative to O*, and find the trend Ru > Rh > Ir > Pt > Pd for (111) metal facets, where Ru binds OH* the strongest. We robustly predict the likely surface phase as a function of reaction conditions by associating confidence values for quantifying the confidence in predictions within the Pourbaix diagram. We define a confidence quantifying metric, using which certain experimentally observed surface phases and peak assignments can be better rationalized. The probabilistic approach enables a more accurate determination of the surface structure and can readily be incorporated in computational studies for better understanding the catalyst surface under operating conditions.

Abstract
Black phosphorene is a novel two-dimensional material which has unique properties and wide applications. Using first-principles calculations, we investigated the adsorption behavior of 12 different transition metals (TMs; Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Os, Ir, Pt, and Au) on phosphorene. Our results showed that all of the adsorption systems have a large binding energy. The Fe-, Co-, and Au-phosphorene systems display magnetic states with magnetic moments of 2, 1, and 0.96 μB, respectively, which means that these systems are magnetic semiconductors. Adsorption of oxygen molecules on TM-phosphorene was also investigated. Interestingly, all the O2-(TM-phosphorene) systems, except O2-(Pd-phosphorene), can elongate the O-O bond, which is critical to their application as catalysts in the oxidation of CO. We also found that the adsorption of O2 molecules enables the O2-(Fe-, Ni-, Cu-, Ir-, Rh-, Ag-, and Au-phosphorene) systems to become magnetic semiconductors, and it allows O2-(Co-phosphorene) to display half-metallic state. Our results are expected to have important implications for phosphorene-based catalysis and spintronics.

Abstract
Catalysts for chemical and electrochemical reactions underpin many aspects of modern technology and industry, from energy storage and conversion to toxic emissions abatement to chemical and materials synthesis. This role necessitates the design of highly active, stable, yet earth-abundant heterogeneous catalysts. In this Review, we present the perovskite oxide family as a basis for developing such catalysts for (electro)chemical conversions spanning carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen chemistries. A framework for rationalizing activity trends and guiding perovskite oxide catalyst design is described, followed by illustrations of how a robust understanding of perovskite electronic structure provides fundamental insights into activity, stability, and mechanism in oxygen electrocatalysis. We conclude by outlining how these insights open experimental and computational opportunities to expand the compositional and chemical reaction space for next-generation perovskite catalysts.

Abstract
Resolving the structure and composition of supported nanoparticles under reaction conditions remains a challenge in heterogeneous catalysis. Advanced configurational sampling methods at the density functional theory level are used to identify stable structures of a Pd8 cluster on ceria (CeO2) in the absence and presence of O2. A Monte Carlo method in the Gibbs ensemble predicts Pd-oxide particles to be stable on CeO2 during CO oxidation. Computed potential energy diagrams for CO oxidation reaction cycles are used as input for microkinetics simulations. Pd-oxide exhibits a much higher CO oxidation activity than metallic Pd on CeO2. This work presents for the first time a scaling relation for a CeO2-supported metal nanoparticle catalyst in CO oxidation: a higher oxidation degree of the Pd cluster weakens CO binding and facilitates the rate-determining CO oxidation step with a ceria O atom. Our approach provides a new strategy to model supported nanoparticle catalysts.

Abstract
We used temperature-programmed reaction spectroscopy (TPRS) to investigate the adsorption and oxidation of methanol on stoichiometric and O-rich RuO2(110) surfaces. We find that the complete oxidation of CH3OH is strongly preferred on stoichiometric RuO2(110) during TPRS for initial CH3OH coverages below ∼0.33 ML (monolayer), and that partial oxidation to mainly CH2O becomes increasingly favored with increasing CH3OH coverage from 0.33 to 1.0 ML. We present evidence that an adsorbed CH2O2 species serves as the key intermediate to complete oxidation and that CH2O2 formation is intrinsically facile but becomes limited by the availability of bridging O-atoms on stoichiometric RuO2(110) at initial CH3OH coverages above 0.33 ML. We show that methanol molecules adsorbed in excess of 0.33 ML dehydrogenate to mainly CH2O and desorb during TPRS, with adsorbed CH3O groups mediating the evolution of both CH2O and CH3OH. We find that O-rich RuO2(110) surfaces are also highly active toward methanol oxidation and that selectivity toward the complete oxidation of methanol increases markedly with increasing coverage of on-top O-atoms (Oot) on RuO2(110). Our results demonstrate that CH3OH species adsorbed within Oot-rich domains react efficiently during TPRS, in parallel with reaction of CH3OH adsorbed initially on cus-Ru sites. The data suggests that the facile hydrogenation of Oot atoms and the resulting desorption of H2O at low-temperature (<∼400 K) provides an efficient pathway for restoring reactive O-atoms and thereby promoting complete oxidation of methanol on the O-rich RuO2(110) surface.

Abstract
Atomic scale knowledge of the surface structure of a metal catalyst is essential for fundamentally understanding the catalytic reactions performed on it. A correlation between the true atomic surface structure of a metal catalyst under reaction conditions and the corresponding catalytic performance is the key in pursuing mechanistic insight at a molecular level. Here the surface structures of model, metal catalysts in both ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) and gaseous environments of CO at a wide range of pressures are discussed. The complexity of observed surface structures in CO is illustrated, driving the necessity for visualization of the catalytic metals under realistic reaction conditions. Technical barriers for visualization of metal surfaces in situ at high temperature and high pressure are discussed.

Abstract
Motivated mainly by catalysis, gas-surface interaction between single crystal surfaces and molecules has been studied for decades. Most of these studies have been performed in well-controlled environments and have been instrumental for the present day understanding of catalysis, providing information on surface structures, adsorption sites, and adsorption and desorption energies relevant for catalysis. However, the approach has been criticized for being too far from a catalyst operating under industrial conditions at high temperatures and pressures. To this end, a significant amount of effort over the years has been used to develop methods to investigate catalysts at more realistic conditions under operating conditions. One result from this effort is a vivid and sometimes heated discussion concerning the active phase for the seemingly simple CO oxidation reaction over the Pt-group metals in the literature. In recent years, we have explored the possibilities to perform experiments at conditions closer to those of a technical catalyst, in particular at increased pressures and temperatures. In this contribution, results from catalytic CO oxidation over a Pd(100) single crystal surface using Near Ambient Pressure X-ray Photo emission Spectroscopy (NAPXPS), Planar Laser-Induced Fluorescence (PLIF), and High Energy Surface X-ray Diffraction (HESXRD) are presented, and the strengths and weaknesses of the experimental techniques are discussed. Armed with structural knowledge from ultrahigh vacuum experiments, the presence of adsorbed molecules and gas-phase induced surface structures can be identified and related to changes in the reactivity or to reaction induced gas-flow limitations. In particular, the application of PLIF to catalysis allows one to visualize how the catalyst itself changes the gas composition close to the model catalyst surface upon ignition, and relate this to the observed surface structures. The effect obscures a straightforward relation between the active phase and the activity, since in the case of CO oxidation, the gas-phase close to the model catalyst surface is shown to be significantly more oxidizing than far away from the catalyst. We show that surface structural knowledge from UHV experiments and the composition of the gas phase close to the catalyst surface are crucial to understand structure-function relationships at semirealistic conditions. In the particular case of Pd, we argue that the surface structure of the PdO(101) has a significant influence on the activity, due to the presence of Coordinatively Unsaturated Sites (CUS) Pd atoms, similar to undercoordinated Ru and Ir atoms found for RuO2(110) and IrO2(110), respectively.

Abstract
This work demonstrates that a single Ru atom-modified covalent triazine framework (Ru-CTF) has selectivity for the electrooxidation of benzyl alcohol in water over the oxygen evolution reaction. Additionally, Ru-CTF displayed higher stability than an immobilized Ru-organometallic complex due to the covalently cross-linked structure of CTF.

Abstract
Surfaces of rutile-like RuO2, especially the most stable (110) surface, are important for catalysis, sensing and charge storage applications. Structure, chemical composition, and properties of the surface depend on external conditions. Using the evolutionary prediction method USPEX, we found stable reconstructions of the (110) surface. Two stable reconstructions, RuO4-(2 × 1) and RuO2-(1 × 1), were found, and the surface phase diagram was determined. The new RuO4-(2 × 1) reconstruction is stable in a wide range of environmental conditions, its simulated STM image perfectly matches experimental data, it is more thermodynamically stable than previously proposed reconstructions, and explains well pseudocapacitance of RuO2 cathodes.

Abstract
Using surface x-ray diffraction (SXRD), quantitative low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), and density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, we have determined the structure of the (4×1) reconstruction formed by sputtering and annealing of the SnO_{2}(110) surface. We find that the reconstruction consists of an ordered arrangement of Sn_{3}O_{3} clusters bound atop the bulk-terminated SnO_{2}(110) surface. The model was found by application of a DFT-based evolutionary algorithm with surface compositions based on SXRD, and shows excellent agreement with LEED and with previously published scanning tunneling microscopy measurements. The model proposed previously consisting of in-plane oxygen vacancies is thus shown to be incorrect, and our result suggests instead that Sn(II) species in interstitial positions are the more relevant features of reduced SnO_{2}(110) surfaces.

Abstract
Surface redox processes involving oxygen atom exchange are fundamental in catalytic reactions mediated by metal oxides. These processes are often difficult to uncover due to changes in the surface stoichiometry and atomic arrangement. Here we employ high-resolution transmission electron microscopy to study vanadium oxide supported on titanium dioxide, which is of relevance as a catalyst in, e.g., nitrogen oxide emission abatement for environmental protection. The observations reveal a reversible transformation of the vanadium oxide surface between an ordered and disordered state, concomitant with a reversible change in the vanadium oxidation state, when alternating between oxidizing and reducing conditions. The transformation depends on the anatase titanium dioxide surface termination and the vanadium oxide layer thickness, suggesting that the properties of vanadium oxide are sensitive to the supporting oxide. These atomic-resolution observations offer a basis for rationalizing previous reports on shape-sensitive catalytic properties. Redox processes in metal oxide surfaces can exhibit structure sensitivities which are difficult to uncover. Here, the authors use atomic-resolution imaging to demonstrate facet dependent alterations in the surfaces of supported vanadium oxide upon reduction and oxidation.

Abstract
Supercapacitors such as electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) and pseudocapacitors are becoming increasingly important in the field of electrical energy storage. Theoretical study of energy storage in EDLCs focuses on solving for the electric double-layer structure in different electrode geometries and electrolyte components, which can be achieved by molecular simulations such as classical molecular dynamics (MD), classical density functional theory (classical DFT), and Monte-Carlo (MC) methods. In recent years, combining first-principles and classical simulations to investigate the carbon-based EDLCs has shed light on the importance of quantum capacitance in graphene-like 2D systems. More recently, the development of joint density functional theory (JDFT) enables self-consistent electronic-structure calculation for an electrode being solvated by an electrolyte. In contrast with the large amount of theoretical and computational effort on EDLCs, theoretical understanding of pseudocapacitance is very limited. In this review, we first introduce popular modeling methods and then focus on several important aspects of EDLCs including nanoconfinement, quantum capacitance, dielectric screening, and novel 2D electrode design; we also briefly touch upon pseudocapactive mechanism in RuO2. We summarize and conclude with an outlook for the future of materials simulation and design for capacitive energy storage.

Abstract
Ion exchange at charged solid–liquid interfaces is central to a broad range of chemical and transport phenomena. Real-time observations of adsorption/desorption at the molecular-scale elucidate exchange reaction pathways. Here we report temporal variation in the distribution of Rb+ species at the muscovite (001)–water interface during exchange with Na+. Time-resolved resonant anomalous X-ray reflectivity measurements at 25 °C reveal that Rb+ desorption occurs over several tens of seconds during which thermodynamically stable inner-sphere Rb+ slowly transforms to a less stable outer-sphere Rb+. In contrast, Rb+ adsorption is about twice as fast, proceeding from Rb+ in the bulk solution to the stable inner-sphere species. The Arrhenius plot of the adsorption/desorption rate constants measured from 9 to 55 °C shows that the pre-exponential factor for desorption is significantly smaller than that for adsorption, indicating that this reduced attempt frequency of cation detachment largely explains the slow cation exchange processes at the interface. Ion exchange at charged mineral-water interfaces is an important geochemical process, but a molecular-level understanding is still required. Here, the authors probe real-time variations of the interfacial ion exchange dynamics at the muscovite-water interface, providing a general picture of adsorbed ion coverage and speciation.

Abstract
Using a home-built reflectometer, we have investigated the changes in the optical reflectivity of a Pd(100) model catalyst during CO oxidation under high-pressure, high-temperature conditions. We observe changes in optical contrast when exposing the surface to CO oxidation conditions at 200 mbar from room temperature up to 400 °C. These changes in reflectivity are a result both of the formation of a surface oxide layer and of a change in surface roughness because of gas exposure. However, the reflectivity is more sensitive to the presence of a thin, flat oxide layer than to surface roughness. CO oxidation plays an important role in the decrease of the reflectivity. Since adding a reducing agent to the gas mixture renders it unlikely that the oxide thickness increases, we conclude that the observed decrease in reflectivity is dominated by increased surface roughness because of the catalytic reaction. We contribute this observed surface roughening to a Mars-van Krevelen-type reaction mechanism.

Abstract
The surface oxidation of palladium nanocrystals plays an important role in changing the active sites and subsequently influencing the catalytic reactivity. Such a microscopy study on surface oxidation, down to the atomic scale, is essential for understanding the structure-property correlations of palladium nanocrystal based catalysts. Herein, we present an in situ atomic scale study on the surface oxidation behavior of palladium nanocrystals, which is induced by electron beam irradiation under low oxygen partial pressure and at room temperature inside an environmental transmission electron microscope. We found that: (i) surface oxidation initially started at the edge sites with atomic steps or vertex sites, which served as active sites for oxidation; (ii) the oxidation reaction proceeded with a much faster rate on the {111} surface, indicating a certain crystallography preference; (iii) nanometer-sized palladium monoxide islands were formed on the surfaces eventually. The results from our in situ studies provide insightful knowledge, and will be of certain importance for the design of improved functional catalysts in future.

Abstract
In this work, we have studied methanol oxidation mechanisms on RuO2(100) by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with some explicit interfacial water molecules. The overall mechanisms are identified as: CH3OH* → CH3O* → HCHO* → HCH(OH)2* → HCHOOH* → HCOOH* → mono-HCOO* → CO2*, without CO formation. This study provides a theoretical insight into C1 molecule oxidation mechanisms at atomic levels on metal oxide surfaces under an aqueous environment.

Abstract
Using a chemical vapor deposition method with regulated sample temperatures under ambient pressure conditions, we were able to fully decorate the internal structure of a mesoporous Al2O3 bead (~1 mm in particle diameter) with iron oxide nanoparticles (with a mean lateral size of less than 1 nm). The iron oxide-decorated Al2O3 showed a high CO oxidation reactivity, even at room temperature. Very little deactivation of the CO oxidation activity was observed with increasing reaction time at ~100 °C. Additionally, this catalyst showed high CO oxidation activity, even after annealing at ~900 °C under atmospheric conditions (i.e., the structure of the catalysts could be maintained under very harsh treatment conditions). We show that our catalysts have potential for application as oxidation catalysts in industrial processes due to the simplicity of their fabrication process as well as the high and stable catalytic performance.
