- Additional information
- This paper reports on the formation process of catalytically active metal nanoparticles (which are exsolved from a perovskite-type oxide). This work is significant because it demonstrates the socketed nanoparticles in the oxide are much less prone to particle growth at elevated temperature, making it a novel method for controlling and tailoring nanoparticle sizes, but also because it further expand the application range of such catalysts compare to the more traditional method of depositing metal on top of an oxide support.
