Dispersed surface Ru ensembles on MgO(111) for catalytic ammonia decomposition
Ruthenium-based materials show promising performance for ammonia decomposition, yet the underlying mechanism remains to be further explored. Here the authors investigate atomically dispersed Ru atoms on polar (111) on MgO facets to show synergistic metal sites in close proximity are required for the...

| description | Ruthenium-based materials show promising performance for ammonia decomposition, yet the underlying mechanism remains to be further explored. Here the authors investigate atomically dispersed Ru atoms on polar (111) on MgO facets to show synergistic metal sites in close proximity are required for the stepwise dehydrogenation of ammonia to N2/H2. |
