Açıklama

In the current contribution, we provide a direct demonstration of the thermally induced surface structural transformations of an alkaline-earth oxide/transition metal oxide interface that is detrimental to the essential catalytic functionality of such mixed-oxide systems toward particular reactants. The BaO(x)/TiO(2)/Pt(111) surface was chosen as a model interfacial system where the enrichment of the surface elemental composition with Ti atoms and the facile diffusion of Ba atoms into the underlying TiO(2) matrix within 523-873 K leads to the formation of perovskite type surface species (BaTiO(3)/Ba(2)TiO(4)/Ba(x)Ti(y)O(z)). At elevated temperatures (T > 973 K), excessive surface segregation of Ti atoms results in an exclusively TiO(2)/TiO(x)-terminated surface which is almost free of Ba species. Although the freshly prepared BaO(x)/TiO(2)/Pt(111) surface can strongly adsorb ubiquitous catalytic adsorbates such as NO(2) and CO(2), a thermally deactivated surface at T > 973 K practically loses all of its NO(2)/CO(2) adsorption capacity due to the deficiency of surface BaO(x) domains.
