In @NatureComms, we report how the sequence of preparing Pd8Au92/SiO2 catalysts tunes the size of Pd ensembles on the nanoparticle surface

Are you attending #NAM29? Are you a postdoc or an early career faculty? If yes, here is phenomenal opportunity to network and interact with the community. Six co-chair slots are open. Please send me an email if interested.
Ps. First-come first-serve. @ACSCatalysis @XinGroup_VT

Thrilled to share that I’ll be launching my independent lab as a Rowland Fellow & PI @Harvard this Fall! Our lab will investigate how glycans (sugar molecules) modulate brain aging and neurodegeneration. We’re recruiting motivated scientists at all levels to join the team! 🍬🧠✨

Our latest research on catalytic oxidation over dilute-limit PdAu alloys is now available in @JCatal_J! Here we show that Pd promotes ethanol esterification more so than simple oxidation, even when Pd is isolated. Great fun with some great collaborators! authors.elsevier.com/a/1kOvQ…

New preprint is out: arxiv.org/abs/2407.13643! Here, we present a multimodal technique for understanding surface roughening in nanoparticle catalysts using CO-DRIFTS, X-ray absorption (XAS), and machine learned force fields. The expt. methods provide disparate insights into the 🧵

A team of researchers at @AizenbergLab show how size and proximity distance between #nanocatalysts independently affect their activity and selectivity, respectively, during #thermocatalysis. @HarvardCCB @Harvard

A modular catalyst platform shows how nanoparticle size and proximity independently controls thermocatalytic activity and selectivity, respectively. @Aizenberglab @LimGarrick @hseas @harvardccb

Check out this excellent work by @LimGarrick and the @AizenbergLab !
With @AizenbergLab and @ChristianReece, we share on @acsnano how we used our raspberry-colloidal-templating platform to deconvolute nanoparticle proximity and size effects in thermocatalysis, following up on 10.1038/s41929-023-01104-1

A very proud moment for my research group.🎉 We have finally completed the construction of a microTAP reactor system, which, to the best of my knowledge, is the first of its kind in the country.
Our new system allows us to pulse reactant gases with microsecond time resolution +

I would like to extend a big thank you to @ChristianReece from @Harvard, my friend and colleague, for providing all the details on building a low-cost microTAP reactor and making them publicly available. If you are interested building a TAP reactor, I highly recommend reading +
