Cover Feature: Plasma Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy Cell Design and Experimental Set‐Up for Operando‐DRIFTS Investigations on Plasma‐Induced Heterogeneous Catalyzed Reactions (Chem. Methods 10/2025)
The Cover Feature shows a customized DRIFTS cell based on the Harrick reaction chamber for operando FTIR spectroscopic studies of plasma-assisted heterogeneous catalyzed reactions; it is connected to a mass spectrometer for online quantitative product gas analysis. The nonthermal plasma ignites in the immediate vicinity of the catalyst surface. The performance of the plasma DRIFTS cell has been demonstrated by investigating the plasma-assisted CO2 splitting reaction with CeO2. More information can be found in the Research Article by D. Peña Fuentes, R. Brandenburg, C. Kubis and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/cmtd.202500057).
