The interaction of Co with ceria thin films and its influence on the sintering behavior of Au were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy (SRPES) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The strong interaction between Co and CeO₂(111) leads to oxidation of Co to Co²⁺ at 300 K, accompanied by partial reduction of ceria surface at low Co coverages. Subsequent Co deposition results in an increasing fraction of metallic Co. Annealing to high temperatures induces Co²⁺ ions diffuse into the CeO₂ film, while the small metallic Co islands agglomerate into larger ones. The bimetallic Co-Au particles were prepared by deposition of Au on the existing Co particles on ceria surfaces. The sintering behavior of Co-Au bimetallic surfaces is found to be highly determined by the stoichiometry of ceria supports. The addition of Co to the Au/CeO₂ surface suppresses the sintering of Au particles at high temperatures in comparison with that of pure Au particles. However, Au particles are less stable on the Co/CeO_1.82 layer than on CeO_1.82 surface.
