Outline of Research at the Start |
For the past several decades, studies of surface science were performed on the surfaces of single crystal under UHV condition, while the real catalysts are used at high pressure condition and more complicated system that consist of metal NPs and oxide support. Advances in synchrotron X-ray have reduced the pressure gap between the ideal and realistic system. The surface reaction of metal NPs on support oxide can be observed using the X-ray tool under ambient pressure. It means that the potential candidate of Ru bimetallic NPs for MTWCR and CO oxidation was confirmed at the laboratory level.

Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purification of NO, CO, and C3H6 gases from automobile is accomplished by combining precious metals, Rh, Pd, and Pt, called three-way catalysts. This study results from studying thermal stability by synthesizing PdRuIr NPs by reducing expensive metals of Rh with cheaper ones. Ru exhibits a high redox but has the characteristic of evaporating while being oxidized at a high temperature. By measuring XAFS, it was explained that Ru is strongly combined with Pd and Ir to reduce evaporation. To understand the hydrogen adsorption and hydride process, XAFS and AP-XPS were performed. As a result of measuring Pd and PdPt NPs, it was found that the Pd plays an essential role in hydrogen adsorption. To obtain an electronic structure similar to that of Pd, AgRh solid-solution NPs made by mixing Ag and Rh located on the left and right sides of Pd were synthesized. A phenomenon in which hydrogen is adsorbed to two metals that are known not to adsorb hydrogen was discovered.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
Metal NPs are promising materials for hydrogen adsorption and three-way catalysts. Despite its excellent properties, research on the mechanisms occurring within it is still lacking. This is meaningful in understanding the behavior of metal NPs in an operating by utilizing in-situ X-ray techniques.
