Clusters or nanoparticles are aggregates of between a few and many millions of atoms or
molecules. They may consist of identical atoms, or molecules, or two or more different …

Since the discovery that ceria is an active catalyst for selective hydrogenation of alkynes,
there has been much debate on the catalytic mechanism. In this work, we propose, based on …

Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution may provide one of the solutions to the shift to a
sustainable energy society, but the quantum efficiency of the process still needs to be …

Abstract Hydrogenation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2, 5-dimethylfuran (DMF) was
examined by Pd x Au y/C catalysts prepared with various Pd/Au molar ratio (x/y) in the …

A novel PdAu bimetallic catalyst with a PdAu@ Au core− shell nanostructure supported on
carbon was facilely synthesized by a simultaneous reduction method without using any …

A comprehensive structural/architectural evaluation of the PtRu (1: 1) alloy and Ru@ Pt
core− shell nanoparticles (NPs) provides spatially resolved structural information on sub-5 …

This paper describes the internal structure of Au− Pd nanoparticles exhibiting newly
discovered three-layer core/shell morphology, which is composed of an evenly alloyed inner …

Using a two-step seed-mediated growth method, we synthesized bimetallic nanoparticles
(NPs) having a gold octahedron core and a palladium epitaxial shell with controlled Pd-shell …

Au nanoparticles are known to be a good catalyst or an effective promoter for a wide range
of catalytic reactions. Bimetallic Au− Pd nanoparticles supported on activated carbon were …

To this day, engineering nanoalloys beyond bimetallic compositions has scarcely been
within the scope of physical deposition methods due to the complex, nonequilibrium …
