Abstract
We have prepared multilayer mesoporous bimetallic (Pt/Pd) alternating films by layer-by-layer (LbL) electrochemical deposition. Because of the high surface area and heterometallic interfacial atomic contacts, enhanced electrocatalytic activity for methanol oxidation reaction is realized. This novel LbL approach allows optimization of the electrocatalytic performance through precise tuning of the thickness of each layer.Keywords
