The document provides an overview of Hajo Freund's research on modeling heterogeneous catalysts at the atomic level. It discusses four conceptual studies: (1) investigating the active sites at metal-oxide interfaces in supported nanoparticle systems using scanning tunneling microscopy, (2) modeling amorphous silica supports through thin film preparation, characterization, and scanning probe microscopy, (3) examining adsorption and chemical reactions in confined spaces using infrared absorption spectroscopy, and (4) understanding the influence of morphology on reactivity through carbon dioxide activation studies. The research aims to develop molecular-scale models of heterogeneous catalysts through advanced surface science techniques.

53. Summary
Models for Heterogeneous Catalysts:
Complex Materials at the Atomic Level
The rim of a supported nanoparticle may be identified
as the active site for a chemical reaction
An amorphous silca film may prepared and characterized
at the atomic level. Transferability to other substrates is possible.
Underneath a silica film reactions in confined space may be studied
and interesting spatio-temporal phenomena may be observed.
Strong Metal Support Interaction may be studied via thin oxide films
and its transformation under reaction conditions may be modelled.
