Abstract

In the present study size-selected platinum clusters fabricated by a laser ablation source are investigated with respect to the oxygen reduction reaction. Pt₄₆ Clusters were deposited onto planar carbon surfaces leading to different cluster coverages between 0.018 clusters / nm² and 0.115 clusters / nm². In all cases the coverage on the glassy carbon support was low enough to avoid cluster agglomeration and hence probe the activity of isolated Pt₄₆ clusters. The result shows that the specific ORR activity of the Pt₄₆ clusters, i.e. the reaction rate normalized with respect to the electrochemical active surface area, depends on the cluster coverage and increases with higher coverage.
