Efficient ethanol oxidation by hemoglobin-capped gold nanoclusters: The critical role of Fe in the heme group as an oxophilic metal active site
Hemoglobin (Hb)-capped gold nanoclusters (Hb/AuNCs) are synthesized, characterized and introduced as durable and high-performance ethanol oxidation electrocatalysts with superior mass and specific activities. The experimental results and computational analysis suggest that the key reasons for the ex...
