In-situ XPS and reactivity studies on different Au/TiO2 catalyst systems — •Martina Hank, Karif Dumbuya, Ole Lytken, Piotr Bobrowski, Bernhard Arnold, J.

Nano-sized gold on oxidic substrates shows a high activity in heterogeneous catalysis which sharply contrasts the inertness of bulk gold. The origin of the catalytic activity and the nature of the active sites are still discussed controversially: Quantum size effects, low coordinated gold atoms, the substrate/gold perimeter interface or anionic as well as cationic gold species have been considered as possible candidates. We have studied surfaces of different gold-based catalysts using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) under ultra high vacuum conditions as well as with in-situ XPS in the presence of reactive gases (CO, O2, propene and mixtures thereof) at pressures of up to 1mbar. These model systems include a Au/TiO2 reference powder catalyst, a Au/TiO2(110) planar model catalyst and a TiO2/Au(111) inverse model catalyst. Comparison of the latter systems enables us to discriminate between cluster-size and interface related effects. Furthermore, we will discuss a novel reaction cell, which is used to study the activity of different model catalysts under ambient pressure conditions.
