项目摘要

In this project, we propose the procurement of an ultrahigh vacuum scanning probe microscopy system for model studies in catalysis and electrocatalysis. The system shall be installed at the newly established Chair of Interface Research and Catalysis as part of the Erlangen Catalysis Research Center of the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. The new instrument will be employed in all present and future projects of the operating group in close cooperation with various workgroups in chemistry, physics, materials science and chemical engineering. The planned work will focus on fundamental investigations of catalytic and electrocatalytic processes in the field of renewable energies, in particular on the topics of energy transformation and storage, chemical storage of hydrogen, and energy-efficient catalysis and materials synthesis. In general, research at the Chair of Interface Research and focuses on mechanistic and microkinetic studies of chemical reactions at interfaces using the concepts of model catalysis. Model catalysts are complex but atomically-defined interfaces, which resemble specific structural and chemical properties of real catalysts. They allow us to correlate the microscopic properties of the interface to its catalytic performance. The proposed instrument will be essential for the characterization of the structural properties of model catalysts and, thus, closes a critical gap in the instrumental portfolio of the proposing group.

在该项目中，我们建议采购一套超高真空扫描探针显微镜系统，用于催化和电催化模型研究。该系统将安装在新成立的界面研究和催化中心，作为弗里德里希埃尔兰根催化研究中心的一部分。 -埃尔兰根-纽伦堡亚历山大大学将与化学、物理、材料科学和化学工程领域的各个工作组密切合作，在该运营团队当前和未来的所有项目中采用该仪器。计划的工作将集中于可再生能源领域催化和电催化过程的基础研究，特别是能源转换和储存、氢的化学储存以及节能催化和材料合成等主题。界面研究主席，专注于使用模型催化概念对界面化学反应进行机械和微观动力学研究。模型催化剂是复杂但原子定义的界面，类似于真实催化剂的特定结构和化学性质。将界面的微观性质与其催化性能相关联对于表征模型催化剂的结构性质至关重要，从而弥补了该小组仪器组合中的关键差距。
