In catalysis research, visualization is used in several ways:
Surface analysis: Visualizing the morphology of catalyst surfaces using techniques like Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Reaction pathways: Representing intermediate states and transition states in catalytic reactions using computational models. Spectroscopy data: Converting data from techniques like X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Infrared (IR) spectroscopy into visual formats. Molecular modeling: Creating 3D models of catalysts and reactants to study interactions and optimize structures.
