UHV studies of the interaction of CO with small supported metal particles, Pd/micaThe interaction of carbon monoxide with small palladium particles supported on UHV-cleaved and heat-treated single-crystal mica was studied. The Pd particles were characterized and tested using the techniques of flash thermal desorption, Auger electron spectroscopy, core electron energy loss spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Evidence is presented for CO decomposition on Pd particles during CO adsorption-desorption experiments. The rate of CO decomposition increased rapidly with diminishing particle size. Residual carbon from CO decomposition blocked CO adsorption and had a strong poisoning effect on the CO oxidation reaction.
