Abstract

Atomic sulfur and its oxides are common catalyst poisons and intriguing research subjects. Recently, graphene-supported nanoclusters were introduced as suitable model catalysts. We investigated the adsorption and reaction of SO2 on graphene-supported Pt nanocluster arrays with high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. SO2 adsorbs in two geometries-perpendicular and parallel to the surface-on both cluster facets and steps. Further insight is gained from the comparison of our results to previous data of SO2 on Pt(111) and two stepped single crystal surfaces-Pt(322) and Pt(355)-with (100) and (111) steps, respectively. We find a remarkable similarity to the adsorption situation on Pt(322). However, thermal evolution experiments revealed several similarities to both Pt(322) and Pt(355), showing that the Pt nanoclusters exhibit a mixture of (100) and (111) steps.
