In this study, platinum nanostructures were prepared on epitaxial graphene layers, and their oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) properties were investigated. It was found that hydrogen-ion irradiation improved the electrochemical structural stability and ORR durability of the Pt nanostructures.
We prepared platinum nanostructures on epitaxial graphene layers (EGLs) generated via the thermal annealing of SiC(0001) substrates [Pt/EGLs/SiC(0001)], and the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) properties were investigated. 4H_ and 6H_SiC(0001) substrates were annealed at 1600 & DEG;C in a vacuum to generate EGLs through the sublimation of Si atoms from the Si-terminated SiC(0001) substrate surfaces. Subsequently, a 1.2 nm thick Pt layer was vacuum-deposited on the EGLs/SiC(0001) surfaces at 10(-8) Pa to synthesize Pt/EGLs/SiC(0001) nanostructures. Furthermore, the Pt nanostructures were fabricated separately on a 500 eV hydrogen-ion-beam (H-2(+)-beam) irradiated EGL/6H_SiC(0001) [Pt/H-2(+)-EGLs/SiC(0001)]. The ORR properties of the three vacuum-synthesized Pt/EGLs/SiC(0001) samples were evaluated, and the Pt/H-2(+)-EGLs/SiC(0001) surface revealed improved electrochemical structural stability, that is, enhanced ORR durability relative to the non-H-2(+)-irradiated Pt/EGLs/SiC(0001) surfaces.
