In situ identification of the metallic state of Ag nanoclusters in oxidative dispersion
Designing ultra small metal nanoclusters or single atoms with metallic state is a challenge. Here, the authors demonstrate the stabilization of ultra small silver clusters in the nearly-metallic state by oxygen adsorption at high temperature, using in situ spectroscopy and microscope technologies.
