Abstract

It is reported that well-dispersed core-shell Pd@Zn nanoparticles of controllable shell thickness can be synthesized from a Pd/CdSe-ZnO precursor in H₂ without using a surfactant: the Pd ensembles on the material surface with electronic modulation by Zn atoms give a methanol turnover frequency (TOF) and selectivity of 3.3 × 10^-1 s^-1 and 80%, respectively, the yield of which is 2-fold the best reported value over other Pd-based catalysts.
