The development of effective and inexpensive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER)
electrocatalysts for future renewable energy systems is highly desired. Platinum-based …

The structure and ultrafast photodynamics of∼ 8 nm Au@ Pt core–shell nanocrystals with
ultrathin (< 3 atomic layers) Pt–Au alloy shells are investigated to show that they meet the …

Bimetallic platinum-based transition-metal (PtTM, TM= Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn) nanoclusters
are potential candidates to improve and reduce the cost of Pt-based catalysts; however, our …

Self-terminating electrodeposition was used to grow ultrathin Pt overlayers on 111 textured
Au thin films. The Pt thickness was digitally controlled by pulsed potential deposition that …

Nickel nanoclusters are very promising for catalysis-related applications, especially
involving chemical reactions with polluting molecules, such as carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur …

We report a density functional theory investigation of the adsorption properties of CO, NO,
and OH on the Cu13, Pt7Cu6, and Pt13 clusters in the cationic, neutral, and anionic states …

Several experimental and theoretical studies have suggested that the formation of surface
alloys or the deposition of strained transition metal (TM) monolayers (ML) on TM supports …

Revealing formic acid oxidation (FAO) behaviors and designing a catalyst are very important
in direct formic acid fuel cell industry. Herein, we introduced various Pt substrates of Pt …

Small iridium nanoclusters are prominent subnanometric systems for catalysis-related
applications, mainly because of a large surface-to-volume ratio, noncoalescence feature …

The knowledge of the physical and chemical properties of PtCo nanoparticles as a function
of the Pt/Co composition and atomic distribution is crucial for several potential applications …
