Carbon supported Au@Pd core@shell nanoparticles were prepared using two methods based on displacement of a Cu-under potential deposited (upd) layer; the standard method, in which a single Cu-upd layer is formed and then displaced, and a Cu-upd-mediated deposition method, wherein the Pd displaces the Cu-upd layer during the Cu deposition. The resulting materials were characterized using in situ extended X-ray absorption fine structure as a function of the applied potential in an electrochemical cell at both the Au L-3 and Pd K absorption edges. This detailed structural analysis shows that the standard, single Cu-upd layer method results in the formation of Pd clusters or islands on the Au core rather than a complete monolayer shell, while the Cu-upd-mediated method produces a mixed/alloyed PdAu shell.
