Self-Assembly of Selective Reaction Centers by Carbon on a Cobalt Fischer-Tropsch Catalyst

This animation shows the carbon atom induced movement of surface cobalt metal atoms, which pop up and form step-edge sites. The carbon atoms are shown in grey, oxygen atoms in red, hydrogen atoms in white, and cobalt atoms in green.
