Electronic Modification at Atomic Scale: Design and Preparation of Diatomic Structures by Atomic Layer Deposition for Methanol Steam Reforming

catalyst exhibits optimal electronic modification, achieving the highest MSR and water-gas shift (WGS) conversions and the lowest activation energies. Additionally, kinetic isotope effect studies confirm that hydrogen formation proceeds via methanol dehydrogenation coupled with WGS. These findings provide new insights into electronic modifications at atomic scales within the bimetallic components, offering valuable guidance for the design and development of advanced catalytic systems.
