Interaction of CO with planar Au/TiO2 model catalysts at elevated pressures

  • Published:
Topics in Catalysis Aims and scope Submit manuscript

The interaction of CO with structurally well-defined, planar Au/TiO2 model catalysts at elevated pressures (up to 50 mbar) was studied in-situ by polarization-modulated infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy and ex-situ by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy performed before and after CO exposure. The results indicate a CO-induced partial reduction of the oxide surface, which is evidenced by a low frequency C–O vibration at 2060 cm−1, combined with a spreading of the Au nanoparticles due to a modification of the Au-oxide interface energy. In a 2:1 CO:O2 atmosphere, TiO2 support reduction was not observed, and a pre-reduced surface was re-oxidized. The consequences of these results for the understanding of the CO oxidation mechanism on Au/TiO2 (model) catalysts are discussed.
