One-step electrodeposition of ligand-free PdPt alloy nanoparticles from water droplets: Controlling size, coverage, and elemental stoichiometry

We present a robust and facile method to produce metal nanoparticle (NP) alloys in a one-step synthesis using direct electrodeposition onto highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG). Precursor salts, H2PtCl6 and Pd(NO3)2, were dissolved in a 1 mM sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) water droplet with 1× pho...
