Inhalt:

Syllabus:

• Concepts in heterogeneous catalysis: definition of terms, industrial processes

• Characterization methods for real catalysts (in-situ and operando methods, TEM, SEM, XRD, EXAFS, XANES, XPS, SIMS, DRIFTS, Raman, TPR, etc.)

• Surface Reaction Dynamics: dynamics of adsorption, reaction, desorption, molecular beam experiments, laser spectroscopies

• Elementary Kinetics: microkinetics, transition-state theory, relaxation kinetics, rate-determining step; microkinetic experiments, TAP, SSITKA, etc.

• Model Catalysis: growth processes, preparation and characterization of model catalysts; kinetics on nanostructured surfaces

• Energy-related model catalysis (incl. examples from current research)
