Applying quantitative atomic-scale ETEM, we show the catalytic surface structures of Au nanoparticulate catalysts in reaction environments. We will present dynamic structure on the catalyst surfaces at atomic scale. The observation and analysis bring a clue to elucidate the mechanism of Au nanoparticulate catalysts for low temperature CO oxidation.
