Abstract:
Several intricate Pt-Cu alloy architectures have been synthesized including hexapod backbones with stretchers and caved octahedron like hexapods, as well as some other intermediates with complex structures. The mechanistic study indicates that the shape is realized via a competitive effect between etching and growth induced by different chemicals.
