Enhancement of electrocatalytic activity of gold nanoparticles by sonochemical treatment.
We demonstrate that gold nanoparticles can become catalytically active for the electrochemical hydrogen oxidation reaction by a sonication treatment. Experimental data and theoretical calculations indicate that the activity arises from the supercooled molten state of gold nanoparticles which are enriched with coordinatively unsaturated gold atoms.
متن کاملElectrocatalytic properties of platinum and it's binary alloy with vanadium in oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)
The electrocatalysis of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on carbon supportedPt-V (1:1) catalyst in polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC) was investigated. Atan oxygen pressure of one atm an enhanced electrocatalytic property of Pt-V/Ccompared with Pt/C is revealed. These results indicate the occurrence of adifferent electrocatalytic mechanism for the ORR on Pt/C and Pt-V/C. Anincrease of mas...
متن کاملFacile Fabrication of Platinum-Cobalt Alloy Nanoparticles with Enhanced Electrocatalytic Activity for a Methanol Oxidation Reaction
Decreasing the cost associated with platinum-based catalysts along with improving their catalytic properties is a major challenge for commercial direct methanol fuel cells. In this work, a simple and facile strategy was developed for the more efficient preparation of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) -supported Pt/CoPt composite nanoparticles (NPs) via solution plasma sputtering with subsequ...
متن کاملElectrocatalytic activity of alkyne-functionalized AgAu alloy nanoparticles for oxygen reduction in alkaline media.
1-Dodecyne-functionalized AgAu alloy nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction of metal salt precursors at varied initial feed ratios. Transmission electron microscopic measurements showed that the nanoparticles were all rather well dispersed with the average core diameter in the narrow range of 3 to 5 nm. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies confirmed the formation of AgAu allo...
متن کاملSignificant enhancement of hole mobility in [110] silicon nanowires compared to electrons and bulk silicon.
Utilizing sp3d5s* tight-binding band structure and wave functions for electrons and holes we show that acoustic phonon limited hole mobility in [110] grown silicon nanowires (SiNWs) is greater than electron mobility. The room temperature acoustically limited hole mobility for the SiNWs considered can be as high as 2500 cm2/V s, which is nearly three times larger than the bulk acoustically limit...
