Abstract

Unravelling the electrocatalytic activity origins of bimetallic nanomaterials is of great importance, yet fundamentally challenging. One of the main reasons for this is that the interactive contributions from geometric and electronic effects to enhancements in reaction activity are difficult to distinguish from one another. Here, on well-defined Ru–Pt core–shell (Ru@Pt) and homogeneous alloy (RuPt) model electrocatalysts, we are able to isolate these two effects. Furthermore, we observe the dominant role of strain in the intrinsic activity of the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction. In the Ru@Pt icosahedral nanostructure, the highly strained Pt shells effectively accommodate the interfacial lattice mismatch from a face-centered cubic structured Ru core. This unique property leads to a weak binding of hydrogen and optimal interaction with hydroxyl species during the reaction, thus leading to an enhanced apparent activity of Ru@Pt.

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.
