Pd Single-Atom Sites on the Surface of PdAu Nanoparticles: A DFT-Based Topological Search for Suitable Compositions
Structure of model bimetallic PdAu nanoparticles is analyzed aiming to find Pd:Au ratios optimal for existence of Pd1 single-atom surface sites inside outer Au atomic shell. The analysis is performed using density-functional theory (DFT) calculations and topological approach based on DFT-parameteriz...
