Unravelling synergistic effects in bi-metallic catalysts: deceleration of palladium–gold nanoparticle coarsening in the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde (2023)
Journal Article
Pinto, J., Weilhard, A., Norman, L. T., Lodge, R. W., Rogers, D. M., Gual, A., …Alves Fernandes, J. (2023). Unravelling synergistic effects in bi-metallic catalysts: deceleration of palladium–gold nanoparticle coarsening in the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde. Catalysis Science and Technology, https://doi.org/10.1039/d3cy00289f

In this work, we demonstrate that the synergistic effect of PdAu nanoparticles (NPs) in hydrogenation reactions is not only related to high activity but also to their stability when compared to Pd mono-metallic NPs. To demonstrate this, a series of m...

Low-Dimensional Metal-Organic Magnets as a Route toward the S = 2 Haldane Phase (2023)
Journal Article
Pitcairn, J., Iliceto, A., Cañadillas-Delgado, L., Fabelo, O., Liu, C., Balz, C., …Cliffe, M. J. (2023). Low-Dimensional Metal-Organic Magnets as a Route toward the S = 2 Haldane Phase. Journal of the American Chemical Society, 145(3), 1783-1792. https://doi.org/10.1021/jacs.2c10916

Metal-organic magnets (MOMs), modular magnetic materials where metal atoms are connected by organic linkers, are promising candidates for next-generation quantum technologies. MOMs readily form low-dimensional structures and so are ideal systems to r... Read More about Low-Dimensional Metal-Organic Magnets as a Route toward the S = 2 Haldane Phase.
