Controlling the Size and Pattern Pitch of Ni(OH)(2) Nanoclusters Using Dip-Pen Nanolithography to Improve Water Oxidation

We use dip-pen nanolithography to accurately pattern Ni(OH)(2) nanoclusters on a metachemical surface with an exceptionally large surface area. The distance between the nanoclusters can be manipulated to control the oxygen-evolution reaction current and overpotential, thereby improving the efficienc...

Sumario:We use dip-pen nanolithography to accurately pattern Ni(OH)(2) nanoclusters on a metachemical surface with an exceptionally large surface area. The distance between the nanoclusters can be manipulated to control the oxygen-evolution reaction current and overpotential, thereby improving the efficiency of the water-splitting process while using minute amounts of the catalyst.
