Abstract
The local structure of the active sites is one of the key aspects of establishing the nature of the catalytic activity of the systems. In this work, a detailed structural investigation of the Rh-CeO2 catalysts prepared by the co-precipitation method was carried out. The application of a variety of physicochemical methods such as XRD, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, TEM, TPR-H2, and XAS revealed the presence of highly dispersed Rh3+ species in the catalysts: Rh3+ single ions and RhOx clusters. The substitution of Ce4+ ions by Rh3+ species, which provided a strong distortion of the CeO2 lattice, is shown. XAS data ensured the refinement of the Rh local structure. It was shown that single Rh3+ sites located next to each other can merge the formation of RhOx clusters with Rh local environment close to the one in Rh2O3 and CeRh2O5 oxides. The distortion of the CeO2 lattice around single and cluster rhodium species had a beneficial effect on the catalytic activity of the samples in low-temperature CO oxidation (LTO-CO). TEM, XAS, and in situ XRD data allowed establishing the structural transformations of the catalysts under Red-Ox treatments. The reduction treatment led to Rhn metallic cluster formation localized on defects of the reduced CeO2-δ. The reduced sample demonstrated efficient CO conversion at 0 °C. However, this system was not stable: its contact with air led to ceria reoxidation and partial reoxidation of Rh to highly dispersed Rh3+ species at room temperature, while heating in an oxidizing atmosphere resulted in the complete reoxidation of metallic rhodium species. The results of the work shed light on the structural aspects of the reversibility of the Rh-CeO2 catalysts based on the highly dispersed Rh3+ species under treatment in the reaction conditions.

Abstract
CeO2-based solid solutions in which Pd partially substitutes for Ce attract considerable attention, owing to their high catalytic performances. In this study, the solid solution (Ce1−xPdxO2−δ) with a high Pd content (x ~ 0.2) was synthesized through co-precipitation under oxidative conditions using molten nitrate, and its structure and thermal decomposition were examined. The characteristics of the solid solution, such as the change in a lattice constant, inhibition of sintering, and ionic states, were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy–energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM−EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM)−EDS, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The synthesis method proposed in this study appears suitable for the easy preparation of CeO2 solid solutions with a high Pd content.

Abstract
The ceria-based catalyst incorporated with Cr and a trace amount of Rh (Cr0.19Rh0.06CeOz) was prepared and the reversible redox performances and oxidation catalysis of CO and alcohol derivatives with O2 at low temperatures (<373 K) were investigated. In situ X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS), ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS), high angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM)-EDS/EELS and temperature-programmed reduction/oxidation (TPR/TPO) revealed the structures and redox mechanisms of three metals in Cr0.19Rh0.06CeOz: dispersed Rh3+δ species (<1 nm) and Cr6-γO3-x nanoparticles (∼1 nm) supported on CeO2 in Cr0.19Rh0.06CeOz were transformed to Rh nanoclusters, Cr(OH)3 species and CeO2-x with two Ce3+-oxide layers at the surface in a concerted activation manner of the three metal species with H2.

Abstract
The real-space resolving of the encapsulated overlayer in the well-known model and industry catalysts, ascribed to the advent of dedicated transmission electron microscopy, enables us to probe novel nano/micro architecture chemistry for better application, revisiting our understanding of this key issue in heterogeneous catalysis. In this review, we summarize the latest progress of real-space observation of SMSI in several well-known systems mainly covered from the metal catalysts (mostly Pt) supported by the TiO2 , CeO2 and Fe3 O4 . As a comparison with the model catalyst Pt/Fe3 O4 , the industrial catalyst Cu/ZnO is also listed, followed with the suggested ongoing directions in the field.
