Surface physical chemistry
Our efforts are focused on researches aiming to observe and control chemical reactions in nano- and single molecular scales by means of surface science and laser photoscience methods in the field of physical chemistry. Adsorption states and chemical reactions of adsorbed molecules on supported metal nanoparticles Model catalysts are fabricated by forming metal nanoparticles (mean diameter 2 - 10 nm) by physical vapor deposition on ultrathin oxide films under ultrahigh vacumm (10^-10 mbar). Adsorption states and reactivity of atoms and molecules on the model catalysts are be studied by temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and laser-induced photodesorption as a function of particle sizes. ![]() Growth of Argon Nanobubbles on Pd(111) ![]() Photochemistry on Metal Nanoparticles Ultrahigh vacuum apparatus
