Supported, ∼1-nm-Sized Platinum Clusters: Controlled Preparation and Enhanced Catalytic Activity

We have been aiming to reduce the amount of platinum (Pt) needed in catalysts for automobile exhaust-gas purification and fuel cell electrodes. To achieve this, we have attempted to: 1) establish simple methods for synthesizing ligand-protected ∼1-nm-sized Pt clusters with a narrow distribution in t...
