Strong metal-support interaction of supported metal catalysts is an important concept to describe the effect of metal-support interactions on the structures and catalytic performances of supported metal particles. By using an example of CeOx adlayers supported on Ag nanocrystals, herein a concept of electronic oxide-metal strong interaction (EOMSI) is put forward; this interaction significantly affects the electronic structures of oxide adlayers through metal-to-oxide charge transfer. The EOMSI can stabilize oxide adlayers in a low oxidation state under ambient conditions, which individually are not stable; moreover, the oxide adlayers experiencing the EOMSI are resistant to high-temperature oxidation in air to a certain extent. Such an EOMSI concept helps to generalize the strong influence of oxide-metal interactions on the structures and catalytic performance of oxide/metal inverse catalysts, which have been attracting increasing attention.

Metal oxides can be doped by various metal ions to tune the properties. While the migration of metal ions especially extrinsic metal ions in metal oxides still needs to be clarified in order to adjust the composition and the structure of metal oxides properly. Here, 14 kinds of metal oxide powders were utilized to investigate the key factors of Zn ion migration in metal oxide powders experimentally. Results show that chemical reactions and/or phase transitions in metal oxides can hinder the migration of Zn ions in metal oxide powders. Compared with unstable metal oxides, it is easier for Zn ions to pass through stable metal oxides which maintain the same component phases at elevated temperatures. Transition from unstable metal oxide medium to stable metal oxide medium will make the transport of Zn ions in the medium from impossible to possible. These findings are helpful for selecting proper metal oxides in related industries such as battery designing, gas sensor development and so on.

As most technologically important metals will form oxides readily, any complete study of adhesion at real metal surfaces must include the metal-oxide interface. The role of this ubiquitous oxide layer cannot be overlooked, as the adhesive properties of the oxide or oxide-metal system can be expected to differ profoundly from the adhesive properties of a bare metal surface. We report on the development of a computational method for molecular-dynamics simulations, which explicitly includes variable charge transfer between anions and cations. This method is found to be capable of describing the elastic properties, surface energies, and surface relaxation of crystalline metal oxides accurately. We discuss in detail results using this method for \ensuremath{\alpha}-alumina and several of its low-index faces.

SUS 316 합금의 노출 조건에 따른 오염 과정과 구조를 x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy 실험을 통해 보았다. SUS 표면에 부착된 오염 물질은 주로 metal-oxide, metal-H-oxide, CO, COH, 그리고 C_xH_y임을 보았다. 오염 물질의 층별 형성 구조는 C_xH_y/CO(COH)/metal-H-oxide/metal-oxide 가 SUS 합금 위에 있는 형태이다. 오염 과정은 주로 금속 구성물의 산화와 C_xH_y의 흡착 과정 두 가지에 의해서 이루어지는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 초고진공 환경에서는, 오염은 주로 산화층 형성에 의한 것으로 노출 시간이 증가함에 따라 산화층의 두 께가 계속 증가하였다. 고진공 또는 높은 압력 환경에서는 노출 초기에 대부분의 산화층이 형성되고, 노출 시간의 증가에 대해서는 주로 C_xH_y에 의한 오염이 계속 증가하였다. 스테인레스 표면 안에 깊이 분포하고 있는 metal-oxide의 농도는 지수형으로 감소하는 형태의 분포를 가지며 그 두께는 대기 노출된 시료의 경우 광전자의 평균자유행로 규모로 형성되는 것을 보았고, 특히 Fe-oxide가 Cr-oxide를 덮고 있는 표면 편석 현상이 보였다.

The effect of oxide–metal interactions on the structures and catalytic performances of oxide adlayers supported on metal substrates can be described by using the concept of strong oxide–metal interaction of oxide/metal inverse catalysts. The applicability of this concept is demonstrated by using CeOx adlayers supported on Ag nanocrystals. Read more in the Concept by W. Huang et al. on page 13538 ff.

The nature of oxide phases at metal–oxide interfaces, i.e. of oxide layers in the proximity of a metal surface, is assessed by critically examining the available data in the literature. The data reveal a trend towards the formation of reduced oxide phases with lower oxidation states in the vicinity of the interface with a metal. The physical origin of these interface-stabilized oxide layers is discussed and the possible causes include strong metal–metal bonding, high oxygen affinity of the substrate metal, reduction of the interfacial strain, and the stability of two-dimensional oxide phases.
