Synthesis of Metal Nanoclusters Doped in Porous Materials as Photocatalysts

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking American University of Sharjah as follows: To achieve the goals of the project, three major tasks will be performed: 1.) The development of nanoclusters embedded in zeolites as potential photocatalysts. 2.) Identify conditions for optimum synthesis of nano-sized tungsten oxide (WO3) based materials. We will investigate synthetic sol-gel strategies for incorporating mixed metal into the WO3 framework. 3.) Surface analysis and catalytic studies.
