Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Promoters are important in catalysis, but the atomistic details of their function and particularly their role in reaction instabilities such as kinetic phase transitions and oscillations are often unknown. Employing hydrogen oxidation as probe reaction, a Rh nanotip for mimicking a single Rh nanoparticle and field electron microscopy for in situ monitoring, we demonstrate a La-mediated local catalytic effect. The oscillatory mode of the reaction provides a tool for studying the interplay between different types of reaction pacemakers, i.e., specific local surface atomic configurations that initiate kinetic transitions. The presence of La shifts the bistable reaction states, changes the oscillation pattern and deactivates one of two pacemaker types for the La-free surface. The observed effects originate from the La-enhanced oxygen activation on the catalyst. The experimental observations are corroborated by micro-kinetic model simulations comprising a system of 25 coupled oscillators.
