![]() | Armentrout, Peter B. | Activation of methane by gold cations: guided ion beam and theoretical studies | The potential energy surface for activation of methane by the third-row transition metal cation, Au+, is studied experimentally by examining the kinetic energy dependence of this reaction using guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometry. A flow tube ion source produces Au+ primarily in its 1S0 (5d10) ... | 2006 | |

![]() | Liu, Feng | Nature of reactive O2 and slow CO2 evolution kinetics in CO oxidation by TiO2 supported Au cluster | Recent experiments on CO oxidation reaction using seven-atom Au clusters deposited on TiO2 surface correlate CO2 formation with oxygen associated with Au clusters. We perform first principles calculations using a seven-atom Au cluster supported on a reduced TiO2 surface to explore potential candidat... | Au clusters; TiO2; Kinetic evolution | 2006 |

![]() | Armentrout, Peter B. | Thermochemistry of the activation of N2 on iron cluster cations: guided ion beam studies of the reactions of Fen+ (n=1-19) with N2 | The kinetic energy dependences of the reactions of Fen + (n=1-19) with N2 are studied in a guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometer over the energy range of 0-15 eV. In addition to collision-induced dissociation forming Fem + ions, which dominate the product spectra, a variety of FemN2+ and FemN+ p... | Metal clusters; Iron ions; Dinitrogen; Endothermic reactions; Collision-induced dissociation; Bond energies | 2006 |
