CBE PhD Dissertation Defense | Study of Metal Catalysts Supported on Thin Films of Perovskites prepared by Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD)
Abstract: Sintering is a severe problem with supported-metal catalysts in high-temperature applications, such as in automotive-emissions control, because it leads to a loss of catalytically active surface area. To stabilize the metal particles, in 2001, the Daihatsu group proposed using perovskite-supported metals, which they referred to as “intelligent” catalysts. The original goal was to regenerate […]

MSE Seminar: “The light stuff: sculpting photons at the molecular-scale for sustainability”
We present methods to sculpt light at the atomic and molecular scale to detect and control chemical transformations, en-route to improved planetary and personal health. First, we study plasmon-driven chemical transformations, focussing on the photocatalytic dehydrogenation of AuPd systems. Here, the Au acts as a plasmonic light absorber and Pd serves as the catalyst. Using […]
