ABSTRACTWithin the scope of the catalytic research of the Schuit lnstitute of Catalysis at the Eindhoven Univarsity of Technology, the surface structure of V20s/y-AI20 3 catalysts has been investigated by low energy ion scattering (LEIS). LEIS is a unique surface analysis technique because its information depth is limited to the topmost atomie layer.Supported vanadium oxides are widely used as oxidation catalysts. This investigation is performed in cooperation with the Delft Univarsity of Technology. The scientists from Delft are interestad in the use of Pd/V 2 0 5 /y-AI 2 0 3 catalysts in the heterogeneaus Wacker oxidation.The LEIS experiments on the V 2 0 5 /y-AI 2 0 3 catalysts have been used to study the surface structure of these catalysts as a tunetion of V 2 0 5 loading. At low loadings ( < 7 wt%) the vanadium species are found to be optimally dispersedover the support, while at medium loadings ( < 11 wt%) multilayered structures are formed. In this thesis a three-dimensional model is presented for the surface structure of V 2 0 5 /y-AI 2 0 3 catalysts. SAMENVATTINGIn het kader van het katalytisch onderzoek van het Schuit Katalyse Instituut aan de Technische Universiteit Eindhoven is de oppervlakte struktuur van V 2 0 5 /y-AI 2 0 3 katalysatoren met behulp van lage ionen verstrooiing (LEIS) onderzocht. LEIS is een unieke oppervlakte analyse techniek omdat de informatie diepte beperkt blijft tot de bovenste atoomlaag.Gedragen vanadium oxides worden veel gebruikt als oxidatie katalysator. Dit onderzoek is in samenwerking met de Technische Universiteit Delft gedaan. De wetenschappers uit Delft zijn geïnteresseerd in het gebruik van Pd/V 2 0 5 /y-AI 2 0 3 katalysatoren in de heterogene Wacker oxidatie.Met de LEIS experimenten van V 2 0 5 /y-AI 2 0 3 katalysatoren...

“…In ISS (Horrell and Cocke, 1987;Czanderna and Hercules, 199 1 ;Niemantsverdriet, 1993;Taglauer, 1997;Rabalais, 2003), a beam of ions is scattered elastically by atoms in a solid. Since the scattering process is similar to that between hard balls of different masses, it is adequately described by classical mechanics.…”
