Peptide-based bimetallic nanostructures with tailored surface compositions and their oxygen electroreduction activities†
Abstract
We report the synthesis of surface-composition-controlled gold–platinum (AuPt) bimetallic nanostructures on carbon nanotubes by peptide-based self-assembly and their catalytic responses to oxygen reduction. Our results can provide a great opportunity to construct various nanostructures with tailored properties.
