Dynamics of formation of Ru, Os, Ir and Au metal nanocrystals on doped graphitic surfaces

Abstract

The fabrication of precious metal (ruthenium, osmium, gold, and iridium) nanocrystals from single atoms has been studied in real-time. The dynamics of the first stage of the metal nanocrystallisation on a doped (B,S)-graphitic surface are identified, captured, and reported.
