Article Synopsis
- Understanding the local coordination of active sites is crucial for effectively modeling single-atom catalysts (SACs), but it's challenging with powder-based systems.
- This study explores how platinum (Pt) atoms interact with the (11̅02) facet of α-FeO, revealing that Pt modifies the lattice structure to achieve a favorable pseudolinear coordination with surface oxygen.
- The findings suggest that the linear O-Pt-O configuration is prevalent in reactive Pt-based SACs, striking a balance between stability and the ability to interact with gas-phase reactants; thus, extensive structural searches are essential for identifying realistic active site geometries.
