What are the driving forces causing extended metal surfaces to break up into small clusters under reaction conditions? Xu et al. have used DFT and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations to study how adsorbates can lead to a detachment of metal atoms and subsequent formation of small clusters, supported by experimental data by Barbara A.J. Lechner and Miquel Salmeron.
