Contributions of distinct gold species to catalytic reactivity for carbon monoxide oxidation

Nanoscale supported gold clusters are common redox catalysts but in many cases the nature of the active sites remains unclear. Here, the authors use X-ray absorption to determine the contribution of single gold atoms, clusters and particles on the reactivity of room-temperature carbon monoxide oxida...
