The spatial confinement at metal–zeolite interfaces offers a powerful knob to steer the selectivity of chemical reactions on metal catalysts. However, encapsulating metal catalysts into small-pore zeolites remains a challenging task. Here, we demonstrate an inverse design of metal–zeolite interfaces, “metal-on-zeolite,” constructed by area-selective atomic layer deposition. This inverse design bypasses the intrinsic synthetic issues associated with metal encapsulation, offering a potential solution for the fabrication of task-specific metal–zeolite interfaces for desired catalytic applications. Infrared spectroscopy and several probe reactions confirmed the spatial confinement effects at the inverse metal–zeolite interfaces.
