The effect of lattice strain on catalytic activity

Abstract

We report on the effect of lattice strain in three different types of core–shell electrocatalyst particles on their catalytic activity towards the oxygen reduction reaction. We decouple the changes in catalytic activity with respect to a geometrical and an energetic contribution, both of electronic origin.
