1. Pd-nanoalloys for hydrogen sensing: Multiscale modeling of thermodynamic and optical properties
Abstract : Hydrogen sensing based on Pd nanoalloys has shown great promise in the past decades and could potentially be part of a solution that enables a safe future hydrogen economy. There are, however, remaining challenges related to, e.g., long-term stability and a need for further optimization of these systems. READ MORE

2. There Is an Alloy at the End of the Rainbow: Structure and Optical Properties From Bulk to Nano
Abstract : Mixing different chemical species and decreasing dimensions to the nanoscale are two powerful approaches for improving materials. In both cases new properties emerge, and structure, composition, and chemical ordering can be tuned to tailor materials for specific purposes. READ MORE

3. Free Metal Clusters Studied by Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Abstract : Clusters are aggregates of a finite number of atoms or molecules. In the present work, free clusters out of metallic parent materials have been created and studied by synchrotron radiation-based photoelectron spectroscopy. The clusters have been formed and studied in a beam and the electronic structure of the clusters has been investigated. READ MORE

4. Active sites and influence of reaction conditions on the selective catalytic reduction of NOx over the silver-alumina catalyst
Abstract : Hazardous nitrogen oxides (NOx) are challenging to remove from fuel-efficient excess-oxygen operating engines. A promising solution is selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx, using hydrocarbons (HC-SCR) or ammonia (NH3-SCR) as reducing agent. READ MORE

5. Alloy Plasmonics - Fundamentals and Application in Catalysis
Abstract : Alloys have for a long time been important in the development of our society; from the bronze age, where man learned how to alloy copper with tin, to today, where many products are made of steel and aluminum alloys. Similarly, but maybe not as generally well known, also in heterogeneous catalysis alloys are explored to develop solutions to increase activity and selectivity of chemical processes. READ MORE
