Light‐Induced Dispersion of Pd Single Atoms Provides Steady‐State‐Stabilized Activity for Photocatalytic H2 Generation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
High photon flux causes (re)distionpersion of atomic Pd species on TiO2 in photocatalytic experiments, whereas Pt SAs undergo continuous agglormation. This allows light‐driven stabilization of active Pd centers for sustained H2 evolution. ABSTRACT In recent years, the use of single atoms (SAs) has become increasingly significant in photocatalysis ...
