Is Platinum a Proton Blocking Catalyst?
Aparna Saksena, Yujun Zhao, J. Manoj Prabhakar +3
Platinum, to date, is the most widely applied electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in acidic media. It is assumed to be a proton-blocking catalyst with only surfac…

Effect of crystallographic texture on dealloying kinetics and composition of nanoporous gold surface
Ezgi HatipoÄlu, Ayman A. El-Zoka, Yujun Zhao +4
Nanoporous metals allow for tailoring composition and surface-to-volume ratio, both aspects critical for applications in catalysis. Here, Ag70Au30 (2 at. %) films with a face-cente…

Electrochemically-driven formation of Intermetallic Cu3ZnLi2 alters Li-transport in nanostructured bimetallic battery anode
Eric V. Woods, Xinren Chen, Yuwei Zhang +10
The role of Li-based batteries in the electrification of society cannot be understated, however their operational lifetime is often limited by the formation of dendrites, i.e. the…
