摘要
The evolution of composite systems constituted by Ag nanoparticles (NPs) deposited onto TiO2 supports under thermal constraints is reported here. The experimental approach advanced combines different working modes and methodologies available in a transmission electron microscope (TEM), i.e. in-situ TEM and electron tomography as carried out on the very same object. The results clearly show the role of the temperature, and the environment on the ratio of encapsulated Ag NPs and on both the morphology and crystallinity of the TiO2 support. Apart from the morphology changes, this study stands as a fundamental investigation of the mechanisms of NPs coarsening particularly by Ostwald ripening. This type of behaviour can be definitely associated to the morphology changes induced by a photocatalytic reactions commonly carried out on TiO2 supports. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
