Abstract

Fibrous, ultra small nanorod-constructed Pt nanocubes (PtNCs) directly grown on the substrate surface show enhanced heterogeneous catalytic reduction of methyl orange with efficiency 103 times higher compared to those in homogeneous reaction. The PtNCs may find potential application in organic reactions and photoelectrochemical devices.
