Platinum Metal Catalysts of High-Index Surfaces: From Single-Crystal Planes to Electrochemically Shape-Controlled Nanoparticles

Tian, Na, Zhou, Zhi-You, Sun, Shi-Gang·2008·The Journal of Physical Chemistry C

Abstract

Nanoparticles of platinum group metals (PGM) supported on diverse substrate materials are widely used catalysts in many important fields such as modern chemical industry, petrochemical industry, automobile exhaust purification, and fuel cells. Due to the extremely high cost and rare reserve of the PGM on the earth, to further improve the catalytic activity, stability, and utility efficiency of PGM nanoparticles is the key issue in relevant industrial development as well as the challenge of basic research of science and technology. This feature article summarizes at first the relationship between surface structure and catalytic functionality gained by using metal single-crystal planes as model electrocatalysts, which reveals that high-index planes, i.e., the planes denoted by a set of Miller indices ( hkl ) with at least one index being larger than unit, with high density of atomic steps and kinks, exhibit generally high catalytic reactivity and stability. Next, guided by the knowledge acquired in model electrocatalysis, we put emphasis upon the electrochemically shape-controlled synthesis of Pt and Pd nanocrystals (NCs) bounded by high-index facets, including tetrahexahedral NCs with 24 { hk 0} facets, trapezohedral NCs with 24 { hkk } facets, concave hexoctahedral NCs with 48 { hkl } facets, and multiple twinned nanorods with { hk 0} facets. Finally, challenging issues and future prospects in this exciting field are outlined.

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.
