  • Title: Kinetically controlled growth of polyhedral bimetallic alloy nanocrystals exclusively bound by high-index facets: Au-Pd hexoctahedra.
    Author: Lee YW, Kim D, Hong JW, Kang SW, Lee SB, Han SW.
    Journal: Small; 2013 Mar 11; 9(5):660-5. PubMed ID: 23055439.
    Abstract:
    Au-Pd alloy nanocrystals (NCs) with a hexoctahedral structure, enclosed exclusively by high-index {541} facets, are prepared via the simultaneous reduction of Au and Pd precursors without added seeds or additional metal ions as structure-regulating agents. Manipulating the NC growth kinetics via control of the relative amount of reductant is the key synthetic lever for controlling the morphology of the Au-Pd NCs. The hexoctahedral Au-Pd NCs exhibit higher catalytic performance toward the electro-oxidation of ethanol than low-index-faceted Au-Pd NCs.
