We thank P. Rodriguez for his pioneering contribution
to the (100)-terminated nanoparticle studies, F. Tichelaar
and P. Kooyman (TU Delft) for TEM analysis, E. Bouwman
for providing generous access to the XRD facility.
We demonstrate how cathodic corrosion in concentrated aqueous solutions enables one to prepare nanoparticles
of various metals and metal alloys. Using various characterization methods we show that the composition of
nanoparticles remains that of the starting material, and the resulting size distribution remains rather narrow. For
the case of platinum we show how the size and possibly even the shape of the nanoparticles can be easily controlled
by the parameters of corrosion. Finally, we discuss the advantages of using the nanoparticles prepared by
cathodic corrosion for applications in (electro-)catalysis.
