Abstract

Noble-metal clusters are important catalysts because of their unique structures and activities, which are associated with their metalÀmetal bonds.[1] Numerous methods have been developed to encapsulate metal clusters within porous materials or polymers to protect the clusters against sintering.[2] A common porous support is zeolite, owing to its intrinsic subnanometer pore diameters, which are similar to the size of the metal clusters and can ...
