Perovskite oxides are effective catalysts for various reactions, such as CO oxidation,total and partial oxidation of hydrocarbons, NOx decomposition, hydrogenation, " hydrogenolysis, and photocatalysis. Two types of catalytic processes are proposed for the catalysis of perovskites, namely, suprafacial and intrafacial catalysis." During suprafacial catalysis, the reactions between adsorbed species on the surface are much faster than reactions involving lattice oxygen, as in low-temperature oxidation of CO. In this case, the reaction rate appears to be correlated...
