Rational preparation of faceted platinum nanocrystals supported on carbon nanotubes with remarkably enhanced catalytic performance.
Faceted platinum nanocrystals supported on carbon nanotubes were prepared using NO2- as a crucial shape-controlling agent. The composites exhibit high electrochemical catalytic activity for oxygen reduction facilitated by the cooperation between the Pt{111} facets and atomic steps, and extremely high selectivity for the oxidation of glycerol to glyceraldehyde.
متن کاملSize- and shape-controlled GaN nanocrystals grown on Si„111... substrate by reactive epitaxy
We report the investigation of coherent GaN nanocrystals spontaneously formed by nitrogen-plasma-assisted reactive epitaxy with Ga droplets supported on the single crystalline Si3N4s0001d /Sis111d surface. The distribution of grown GaN nanocrystals, as revealed by scanning electron microscopy and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy, is very uniform in size s,16 nmd and shape and th...
متن کاملElectrochemically shape-controlled synthesis of trapezohedral platinum nanocrystals with high electrocatalytic activity.
Trapezohedral Pt nanocrystals enclosed by 24 high-index {522} facets have been successfully prepared for the first time in high yield by a direct square wave electrodeposition method. They exhibit a significantly enhanced catalytic activity for C-1 molecules (CO, CH(3)OH, HCOOH).
متن کاملSelecting the shape of supported metal nanocrystals: Pd huts, hexagons, or pyramids on SrTiO3(001).
Increasing interest in oxide supported nanoparticle science and technology is stimulating research into controlling nanocrystal shape. Pd forms nanocrystals on the surface of SrTiO3(001), and depending on the crystallographic interface of the Pd with the substrate three shapes can be created: truncated pyramids, huts, and hexagonal shaped disks. Scanning tunneling microscopy reveals that the na...
متن کاملAtomic imaging of oxide-supported metallic nanocrystals.
The nucleation of noble metal nanoparticles on oxide surfaces can lead to dramatic enhancements in catalytic activity that are related to the atomic-scale formation of the nanoparticles and interfaces. For the case of submonolayer Pt deposited on the 2×1 SrTiO(3)(001) surface atomic-force microscopy shows the formation of nanoparticles. We use X-ray standing wave (XSW) atomic imaging to show th...
