A non-negligible role of supports in atomically dispersed catalysts direct involvement in catalysis
A recent study revealed that, besides serving as ligands to stabilize single-metal atoms, support also provide metal atoms that are vicinal to catalytic metal atoms and can directly participate in the activation of reactants, thus creating a significant vicinal effect for promoting catalysis of an atomically dispersed metal catalyst.
