Abstract

Highly dispersive and size controlled Pd and Pt nanoclusters have been synthesized by gas condensation and Arc plasma source. The morphology, crystallographic structures, electronic structure and the temperature dependence of chemical states of nanocluster were investigated by using TEM, AFM, EXAFS and XPS, respectively. The results show that non-passivized Pd nanoclusters with the size of 1.5~ 5.7nm are consisted with pure Pd core covered by highly oxidized PdO2 thin layer. The dioxide state PdO2 layers start to converting to Pd at 120°C and vanishing at 180°C in a reduction atmosphere.
