Engineering Multimetallic Nanocrystals for Energy Electrocatalysis

Engineering nanocrystals with size, shape, composition, structure and strain controls is the key to enhance the performance of energy conversion and storage devices. In this report, I will focus on my recent developments in rational design and controlled synthesis of high-quality multicomponent nanocrystals for enhancing fuel cell electrocatalysis. I will start with several examples on how to engineer nanowires, nanplates and graphene-Fe Pt nanoparticles composite for getting highly efficient Pt-based catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction with extremely high activity and stability. After that, I will show several interesting examples on how to engineer multimetallic nanocrystals for enhancing liquid fuel oxidation and HER/OER catalysis in the terms of capacity, rate ability and stability.Engineering nanocrystals with size, shape, composition, structure and strain controls is the key to enhance the performance of energy conversion and storage devices.
