Dft study of metal particles on support oxides

Lines connect the coordinator with its partners. CORDIS does not always give exact coordinates for projects before 2014. These points are placed at city or country level.

Project objective

The project is based on the use of quantum chemical methods for the investigation of catalysts made by metal particles supported on oxides. This study is interesting not only for heterogeneous catalysis, it concerns also problems connected to adhesion between metals and oxides, which is of relevant interest in microelectronics or in metal coatings. New developments of Density Functional Theory tools will be tested and used to obtain a better description of the phenomena occurring at metal/oxide interface.
