摘要: A method for synthesizing high-entropy alloy (HEA) nanostructures, each having a HEA shell uniformly grown on a nanocore, is provided. The method comprises: mixing nanostructure seeds, a plurality of metal precursors, one or more reducing agents and a surfactant in a solvent to form a first mixture; subjecting the first mixture to ultrasonication under an ultrasonication temperature; degassing the first mixture upon heating at a degassing temperature under vacuum with magnetic stirring; purging the first mixture with an inert gas; and keeping the first mixture at a growth temperature for a growth time to form the HEA nanostructures. The provided method is a low-temperature, facile, general, wet-chemical, seeded epitaxial growth method which can synthesize a library of unconventional-phase HEA nanostructures, e.g., 4H-Au@HEA nanowires and 2H/fcc-Au@HEA nanosheets with 5-10 components by using 4H-Au NWs and 2H/fcc-Au NSs as seeds respectively.

摘要: The present invention provides a gold-copper alloy nanostructure which can be used as a catalyst for electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction and a method for synthesizing the same. The provided gold-copper alloy nanostructure has a heterophase composed of a hexagonal close-packed phase and a face-centered cubic phase. This gold-copper nanostructure shows an atomic ratio of 99 to 1 for gold to copper. The present invention adopts delicately structural modulation of nanomaterials based on the phase engineering of nanomaterials strategy and offers a promising way for the design and preparation of novel catalysts, especially those with unconventional phase, for enhancing their performances in various catalytic applications.
