Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201404314-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Encapsulation of Pt nanoparticles (NPs)</bold> in a zirconia nanocage by area‐selective atomic layer deposition (ALD) can significantly enhance both the Pt stability and activity. Such encapsulated Pt NPs show 10 times more stability than commercial Pt/C catalysts and an oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity 6.4 times greater than that of Pt/C. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh31px0q0z" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
