Abstract

Abstract : We report a facile atom assembly of heterometallic bi-/tri-atom clusters (Pt1, 2 Cu1 ) starting from mono-metallic atoms (Pt1 ) in a protective PDMS-PEG layer. Abstract : We report a facile strategy for synthesizing uniform heterometallic bi/tri-atom clusters starting from mono-metallic atoms in the liquid phase. Specifically, Pt1, 2 Cu bi/tri-atoms are prepared by reducing CuCl2 at preformed Pt1 atoms with ethanol inside a PDMS-PEG protective layer. The metal atoms in the Pt1, 2 Cu clusters are in reduced chemical states.
