Ceria based catalysts

Pt-based catalysts M. Happel, J. Mysliveček, V. Johánek; et al. JOURNAL OF CATALYSIS, Volume 289, May 2012, Pages 118-126

Co-based catalysts M. Li and E. I. Altman. J. PHYS. CHEM. C, Volume 118 (24), May 2014,  Pages 12706–12716

Our experimental project To establish experimental procedures for obtaining thin films of cobalt oxides CoO and Co3O4 with well-defined crystallographic orientation and a complete coverage on a suitable metal or oxide substrate. To obtain experimental control of the morphology, particularly the density of monoatomic steps, and of density of oxygen vacancies on the oriented continuous thin films of cobalt oxide. The measurement of reactivity towards H2O, O2 and methanol (CH3OH) on previously developed and quantitatively controlled model catalyst systems.
