Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In one embodiment, the catalyst assembly includes a two-dimension (2-D) extensive catalyst having a catalyst crystal plane; and a substrate supporting the 2-D extensive catalyst and having a substrate crystal plane in substantial alignment with the catalyst crystal plane. In certain instances, the catalyst crystal plane includes first and second adjacent catalyst atoms defining a catalyst atomic distance, the substrate crystal plane includes first and second adjacent substrate atoms defining a substrate atomic distance, a percent difference between the catalyst and substrate atomic distances is less than 10 percent.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1. A catalyst assembly comprising: a crystalline substrate of metal oxide, metal nitride and/or carbide and having an atomic distance between first and second adjacent atoms; and a Pt 3 Ni catalyst layer of up to 20 atomic layers including an exposed surface layer crystallographically oriented according to a (111) plane, and supported on the crystalline substrate, the atomic distance between two adjacent catalyst atoms and the atomic distance between any two adj…
