Dealloying Strategies for Mesoporous AuCu Nanoparticles: Impact on Internal Metallic Structure and Electrocatalytic Performance
Mesoporous AuCu Nanoparticles In article number 2400021, Minsu Han, Yusuke Yamauchi, and co-workers present chemically etched mesoporous AuCu nanoparticles, synthesized via micelle-assisted methods, that demonstrate superior electrocatalytic activity. Their significant porosity and abundant active sites resulting from etching, along with distinctive electronic properties from the complementary effects of Au and Cu, significantly enhance catalytic efficiency. This highlights the effectiveness of dealloying processes in improving mesoporous alloy nanoparticles for electrocatalytic applications.
