Shape-dependent electrocatalytic activity of platinum nanostructures
Abstract
Since many metallic nanostructures with different shapes exhibit unique chemical and physical properties, a systematic attempt to synthesize these shape-controlled structures for property–shape correlation remains an important challenge in contemporary materials chemistry. Main difficulties like poor shape selectivity, low yield, presence of impurity phases, difficulty of separation, etc., are exacerbated since metallic structures have high surface energies which favour lower surface areas, and consequently many synthesis strategies, including the use of hard and soft templates and external nucleating agents, are being employed along with theoretical guidelines from density functional calculations on simpler systems. One of the important application areas where these structures have gained profound attention is in electrocatalysis, where the kinetics of many structure-sensitive reactions of technological relevance have been experimentally observed to show drastic changes with shape especially in the nanosize domain, at least in one dimension. Considering their scientific and technological importance, this feature article provides an overview of the recent progress on the shape-controlled synthesis of metallic nanostructures with special emphasis on platinum, and their crucial role in the electrocatalysis of anodic reactions for polymer electrolyte fuel cells.

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.
