Abstract
The results of a study of a specially prepared Ag/Al2O3 model system by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are presented. The surface morphology of a model support (a thin alumina film on a conducting support) and a model supported catalyst (Ag/Al2O3) was characterized using STM. The first experimental results obtained in the STM and XPS study of the sintering of supported catalysts are reported, which demonstrate the capabilities of these techniques for studies of this kind.
