Abstract

Abstract : The ORR activity of Pt3 M NRs is related to the oxophilicity (Δ E ads ) and their segregation energy when exposed to oxygen containing species (OCS*) determines their stability. Abstract : The ORR activity of Pt3 M NRs is related to the oxophilicity (Δ E ads ). However, their segregation energy when exposed to oxygen containing species (OCS*) determines their stability. Although the Δ E ads of Ag is not as weak as that of Au, its structure is relatively stable, thus promoting the ORR stability.
