The impact of catalyst structure and morphology on the catalytic performance in NH3-SCR reaction: A review

Seeded Growth of AuPt-PdAg Solid–Hollow Hybrid Nanocrystals and Their Applications in Plasmon-Enhanced Catalysis

“…35 These catalysts can exhibit superior efficiency, selectivity, and stability compared to traditional catalysts, rendering them attractive for practical applications. 36,37 In this study, we present the synthesis of a novel solid− hollow hybrid nanostructure composed of four distinct noble metals (Au, Ag, Pd, Pt) and demonstrate their potential applications in plasmon-enhanced catalysis. Initially, AuPtAg hybrid nanocrystals are produced, followed by the transformation of the Ag solid component into Pd-based hollow nanoframes through a galvanic replacement reaction.…”

“…In addition to these advantages, the plasmonic properties of one metal can be modulated by the presence of another metal, resulting in optimized light absorption and enhanced electromagnetic fields at the catalyst surface, which can improve the efficiency of photon-driven reactions. − Concurrently, the injection of hot electrons from plasmonic nanoparticles into the plasmon-inactive component can offer an alternative pathway for driving redox reactions, as these high-energy electrons can activate adsorbed molecules or facilitate charge transfer processes. − In summary, by capitalizing on the synergistic effect of plasmon-enhanced catalysis and multimetallic components, it becomes possible to engineer advanced catalysts for various applications . These catalysts can exhibit superior efficiency, selectivity, and stability compared to traditional catalysts, rendering them attractive for practical applications. , …”
