Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A catalyst is necessary for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Platinum-group metals are critical to catalyzing reactions, but they are rare metal. So, the non-platinum group metals are required for alternative catalyst. In this study, specific guideline based on electric theory was proposed by first principle calculation. Furthermore, we investigated the behaviors of metal alloy clusters.
