Origin of high oxygen reduction reaction activity of Pt(12) and strategy to obtain better catalyst using sub-nanosized Pt-alloy clusters

In the present study, methods to enhance the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity of sub-nanosized Pt clusters were investigated in a theoretical manner. Using ab initio molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations based on density functional theory, we have succeeded in determining the origin...
