Ion irradiation is proven to be an effective and innovative method for the controlled surface modification of several solid catalytic materials which microstructure can be tailored to significantly enhance their catalytic activity and durability. The feasibility of this method is deeply investigated here on Ce0.7Zr0.3O2 and the Pt/Ce0.7Zr0.3O2 catalysts.
