摘要
A first-principles electronic structure calculation is performed to explore stability and electronic structure of Pt-13 cluster adsorbed on carbon supports. The stability of Pt-13 cluster on carbon nanotube supports has enhanced significantly, compared with that on graphene support. Charge re-distribution among Pt atoms takes place. Electronic structure of carbon supported-Pt cluster exhibits metallic characteristics, similar to a Pt metal surface. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
