Discovering New Dual and Triple Atom Catalysts
The central goal of DETECT is to discover and establish new fundamental insight into the catalytic activity of duel and triple atom catalysts. Many chemical reactions – several related to securing a wider penetration of renewable energy – are not viable today due to a number of limitations of traditional catalysts including unfavorable scaling relations of intermediates, lack of selectivity, and cost and availability of precious metals. Employing catalysts consisting of only two or three atoms offers a possible route to circumvent these limitations, while also lifting the constraints of current single atom catalysts and opening the possibility of catalyzing more complex reactions that may…
