Physics of Surface, Interface and Cluster Catalysis

Physics of Surface, Interface and Cluster Catalysis Synopsis

Physics of Surface, Interface and Cluster Catalysis reviews the fundamental physics of catalysis from simple surface models through to complex cluster and catalytic structures.

It is the first book to provide a coherent collection of the physics of catalysis, and shows how physics has provided, and continues to provide, clarity and insight into many complex catalysis problems, reviewing both recent developments and prospects for future developments in the field.

This book covers catalytic activity based on band structure, reaction dynamics at the surface and subsurface, reactions on magnetic and paramagnetic surfaces, electrocatalysis and kinetic Monte Carlo frameworks, with contributions written by leading researchers from across the world.
