EXAFS analysis of an Ir/γ-Al2O3catalyst at elevated temperatures: evidence for a Gaussian pair distribution function
Literature Information
G. E. van Dorssen, D. C. Koningsberger
The effect of temperature on the structure of an Ir/γ-Al2O3 catalyst has been investigated. It was found that the assumption of a Gaussian Debye–Waller factor was valid for a temperature up to at least 573 K, for both the Ir–Ir and the Ir–O contributions. Theoretical references were generated using FEFF7 for the Ir–Ir and the Ir–O contributions. From the results of the EXAFS analysis, we conclude that the inter-atomic potential of very small particles forces the metal atoms to move more harmonically. Consequently the Einstein temperature, which indicates the temperature at which anharmonicity becomes important, increases. The results show that at reaction temperatures it is possible to obtain information with XAFS spectroscopy about first the structure of supported small noble metal particles and second the structure of the metal–support interface.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
