Study shows tweaking one layer of atoms on a catalyst’s surface can make it work better
Jan 11, 2021 (Nanowerk News) Scientists crafting a nickel-based catalyst used in making hydrogen fuel built it one atomic layer at a time to gain full control over its chemical properties. But the finished material didnt behave as they expected: As one version of the catalyst went about its work,...
