摘要
Systematic density functional studies revealed that PtAu(111) significantly alters the reaction kinetics of methanol oxidation from that on Pt(111). PtAu(111) facilitates the reaction path that starts from cleavage of the OH bond. Furthermore, it prevents CH2O from immediate decomposition as on the clean Pt(111) surface. This indicates that proper arrangement of Au and Pt sites offers great opportunities for non-COad paths for high H productivity in fuel cells. (c) 2008 American Institute of Physics.
