Abstract:
Controlling the morphology of highly homogeneous nanoribbons is one of the main goals for synthesizing catalysts with excellent activity and durability. In this Communication, platinum (Pt) nanoribbons were synthesized by a one-pot method. We used ammonium fluoride (NH4F) as the regulator, under 8 atm of hydrogen (H2), to synthesize zigzag-shaped two-dimensional Pt nanoribbons. Benefiting from their unique morphology, the Pt nanoribbons display superior electrocatalytic activity and stability.
