Abstract
This study presents a robust catalyst by embedding single-atom Ru sites onto CeO₂ using a gas bubbling-assisted membrane deposition method. The Ru₁/CeO₂ catalyst shows exceptional catalytic performance and stability during soot oxidation, rivaling commercial Pt-based catalysts. The high turnover frequency is attributed to strong interfacial charge transfer, enhancing NO oxidation and reducing activation energy during soot oxidation. This offers a cost-effective alternative to Pt/Pd catalysts.
