摘要
The adsorption of methanol altered structures of Au-Pt bimetallic nanoclusters on a thin film of Al<sub>2sub>O<sub>3sub>/NiAl(100). Methanol adsorbed on the Au-Pt intermixed bimetallic clusters, of which the surfaces consist of both Au and Pt, induced a segregation of Au from Pt. This segregation state was unstable, as the clusters returned to the initial Au-Pt intermixed state upon desorption or decomposition of adsorbed methanol. Ethanol and cyclohexene were adsorbed on Au-Pt bimetallic clusters for comparisons, indicating that the interaction of the hydroxyl group of methanol with the clusters accounts for the structural modifications.
