Article Synopsis
- The paper reports the successful creation of true two-dimensional silicon carbide (2D SiC) through a top-down synthesis approach, despite challenges in growing it from non-layered bulk silicon carbide.
- The isolated 2D SiC is shown to be environmentally stable and displays unique Raman behavior linked to the thickness of the nanosheets.
- The resulting 2D SiC demonstrates visible-light emission, highlighting its potential for applications in light-emitting devices and advanced electronic circuits.
Ceria-supported Pd is a promising heterogeneous catalyst for CO oxidation relevant to environmental cleanup reactions. Pd loaded onto a nanorod form of ceria exposing predominantly (111) facets is already active at 50 °C. Here we report a combination of CO-FTIR spectroscopy and theoretical calculations that allows assigning different forms of Pd on the CeO(111) surface during reaction conditions.
