Abstract

Shape-controlled Pt-based seeds lead to completely different M/Pt (M = Ru or Rh) structures of nanobox or octapod. Unusually high catalytic activities of Pt@Ru octapod toward the oxygen evolution reaction are observed due to a core-shell effect. © 2015 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
