Abstract

Abstract : Face-centered-cubic indium nanocubes exhibited excellent activity toward the dehydrogenation of aqueous hydrazine in the presence of light. Abstract : 6.8 nm face-centered-cubic indium nanocubes were prepared via plasma-assisted hydrogen reduction in ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride and KClO4 as a {100}-facet director. The nanocubes exhibited excellent dehydrogenation activity toward aqueous hydrazine owing to their localized surface plasmon resonance.
