Thanks to density functional theory-based calculations, researchers at the Chungnam National University in Korea and the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the US have been able to test and compare different ways of building up ceria catalyst nanostructures on a titania surface and find out which naturally form the most easily. The work could help in the design of new and cost-effective catalytic heterointerfaces on demand……….
