Tuning Pt-CeO2 interactions by high-temperature vapor-phase synthesis for improved reducibility of lattice oxygen

While single-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted a lot of interest, the nature of the active sites in SACs remains elusive. Here the authors elucidate that depositing single atoms via high temperature synthesis leads to improved reducibility of lattice oxygen on CeO2 yielding low temperature reacti...
