For example, in cerium-based inverse catalyst systems, the Ce3+ states have been shown to be the active sites for methanol synthesis. This suggests that the activity can be enhanced by promoting those through alloying with trivalent, catalytically active rare-earth metals, as, e.g. Sm. We present low-energy and X-ray photoemission electron microscopy (LEEM/XPEEM), investigations that show how epitaxially grown (100)- and (111)-oriented CeO2 islands may be modified and/or alloyed by post-deposited metallic Sm. For the Ce1−xSmxO2−δ/Ru(0001) system, the CeO2 (111)-oriented islands undergo a structural change, concomitant with a partial conversion from Ce4+ to Ce3+. Surprisingly, for Ce1−xSmxO2−δ/Cu(111) the result is found to be face-dependent since only (100)-oriented CeOx islands were reduced whereas the (111)-oriented islands remained unaltered. Both systems have been exposed to reducing (H2) and oxidizing (CO2) conditions, resulting in higher reduction and in a complete recovery of the Ce4+ states, respectively. These unexpected results indicate a complex interaction not only between cerium and the doping element, but also an intricate interplay with the metallic substrate.

Possibly, their activity may be strongly enhanced due to the facile exchange between Ce4+ and Ce3+ states, with the latter likely responsible for activating O-H and C-H bonds. Here, we aim to unravel the complex metal-oxide interactions in the inverse CeOx/Ni(111) system under oxidizing and reducing environments. Using low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) we find that the CeOx(111) grown by reactive molecular beam epitaxy preferentially aligns with the main directions of the Ni(111) substrate or is azimuthally rotated by ±10°. By using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS), we find that less NiO is formed during deposition of CeOx than when it is held without ceria at the same conditions (O2 partial pressure and temperature). Finally, we observe a complex behavior of the cerium and nickel oxidation states when exposing the system to O2 or H2 atmospheres.

Thus, this was the first paper that showed a body-specific space–valence mapping. These highly influential findings led to a substantial body of research and follow-up studies, which could confirm the original findings on a conceptual level. However, direct replications of the original study are scarce. Against this backdrop and given the replication crisis in psychology, we conducted a direct replication of Casasanto’s original study with 2,222 participants from 12 countries to examine the aforementioned effects in general and also in a cross-cultural comparison. Our results support Casasanto’s findings that right-handed people associate the right side with positivity and the left side with negativity and vice versa for left-handers.
