| Research Abstract |
Shape-controlled octahedral and cubic Pd nanocrystals have been synthesized by a chemical reduction method. From TEM measurements, the mean diameters of the octahedraland cubic Pd nanocrystals were c.a. 10 nm respectivety. The hydrogen-storage properties have been investigated by Powder X-ray diffraction, PC isotherm and solid state NMR mesurments. It was found that that the hydrogen absorption/desorption response depends on crystal face on Pd surface. In addition, hydrogen-storage properties of Pd/Pt alloy nanocrystals has been investigated.
