Our groups work on vehicle emissions technology continues with a new DOE NETL grant

We continue to provide theoretical support and guide experimental catalyst design efforts to the team lead by Prof. Mike Harold with a new DOE NETL grant worth $2.1M. UH is joined by Prof. Bill Epling from the University of Virginia (UVA), Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) and engineers from Fiat-Chrysler …

JACS Communication on finite size effects on monolayer catalysts

Having been a PhD student in the group of Prof. Manos Mavrikakis at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, Prof. Lars Grabow had an early exposure to monolayer catalysts, or near surface alloys. At the time theory was able to make exciting predictions regarding the catalytic properties of these hypothetical materials, but only a hand-full of …
