Structural Regulation with Atomic-Level Precision: From Single-Atomic Site to Diatomic and Atomic Interface Catalysis
Open accessAbstract
Summary As a new, emerging class in catalysis field, single-atomic-site catalysts (SASCs) have displayed outstanding activities, selectivities, and stabilities in a range of important catalytic reactions. The compositions and structures of SASCs have a great impact on catalytic performances; therefore, the central task is to rationally manipulate the structures with atomic-level precision, and thereupon to design different active sites to promote the overall performances. Here, we compare SASCs with clusters/nanoparticles in term of their catalytic behaviors, and systematically interpret the impacts of the microscopic structures of SASCs on catalytic performances. Subsequently, we summarize the reports on synergistic catalysis over diatomic, multiatomic sites, single-atom alloys, and atomic interfaces, and highlight the great significance of in situ characterization technologies for monitoring the active sites. Finally, we discuss the limitations, development trends, and future challenges of SASCs, and present an outlook on further constructing more sophisticated active sites for more complex catalytic reactions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
