Abstract

This communication reports a remarkably simple approach for the preparation of Au3Cu alloy nanocrystals via phase-stabilized synthesis. The as-prepared Au3Cu nanocrystals exhibit significantly enhanced catalytic activity in a CO2 electroreduction reaction, compared with monometallic Au nanocrystals.
