CO oxidation by MoS<sub>2</sub>-supported Au<sub>19</sub> nanoparticles: effects of vacancy formation and tensile strain
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The mechanism of the catalytic oxidation of CO activated by MoS2-supported Au19 nanoparticles (NPs) was studied using density functional theory calculations. Of particular interest were the effects of the physical/chemical modification of a MoS2 support on the CO oxidation pathway and the activation of specific reactive centers, i.e., the Au atoms of Au19 or the Au-MoS2 perimeter sites. We systematically modified MoS2 by introducing an S vacancy or 5% tensile strain and studied the shift of each reaction step and the overall change in the reaction pathway and activity. Despite the lack of direct involvement of the Au-MoS2 perimeter in the reaction, the combination of an S vacancy and the tensile strain in the MoS2 support was found to improve the stability and catalytic activity of Au NPs for CO oxidation. The results show that support modification can provide information for new pathways for the rational design of Au-based catalysts.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
