Abstract

Au–Pt bimetallic nanocomplexes were synthesized and the composition and morphology of the nanocomplexes could be easily controlled by a facile synthesis method. The eletrochemical activity and stability of the nanocomplexes can be optimized by tuning their Au-to-Pt molar ratio. The efficient electrocatalytic performance is confirmed by direct oxidation of methanol and formic acid.
