Platinum Concave Nanocubes with High‐Index Facets and Their Enhanced Activity for Oxygen Reduction Reaction
Abstract
Many facets: A simple synthetic route, which is based on reduction in aqueous solution, results in Pt concave nanocubes (see picture) enclosed by high-index facets such as {510}, {720}, and {830}. The nanocrystals exhibit electrocatalytic activity (per unit surface area) that is 3.5 times higher than the commercial Pt/C catalyst in the oxygen reduction reaction.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
