Platinum Clusters on Vacancy-Type Defects of Nanometer-Sized Graphene Patches

Platinum Clusters on Vacancy-Type Defects of Nanometer-Sized Graphene Patches

Density functional theory calculations found that spin density distributions of platinum clusters adsorbed on nanometer-size defective graphene patches with zigzag edges deviate strongly from those in the corresponding bare clusters, due to strong Pt-C interactions. In contrast, platinum clusters on...
