Pd and PdCo nanostructures are synthesized by a soft-template route to be applied as electrocatalysts. Distinctive morphologies are obtained: nanowire-like structures, with mean diameter d = 33 nm (PdNW), forming an entangled ...

We study the dependence of the magnetic properties of NiPd and CoPd segregated nanoclusters and slabs as a function of the 3d magnetic component concentration (x), the chemical order, and size. In the case of clusters we ...

Estudios de nanoestructuras core-shell Pd-Mo y PdMo-Pd como electrocatalizadores son de gran importancia por su posible actividad electrocatalítica en reacciones involucradas en las celdas de combustible de hidrógeno debido ...

Carbon-supported Pd, Au@Pd core-shell and Au1-xPdx-alloyed nanoparticles were prepared by a chemical reduction method and characterized by different experimental techniques, including X-ray powder diffraction, transmission ...

In this work, nanostructured Ce0.9Gd0.1O2-δ (GDC) and Ce0.9Pr0.1O2-δ (PrDC) spheres previously obtained by microwave assisted hydrothermal homogeneous co-precipitation were impregnated with 1 wt% Pd by the incipient wetness ...

Polycrystalline CoxPd1-x (x=1, 0.60, 0.45, 0.23, and 0.11) cylindrical nanowires (ø=18-35nm, about 1μm length) are produced by AC electrodeposition into hexagonally ordered alumina pores. Single-phase nanowires of an fcc ...

In this thesis, we have looked for the understanding of the magnetic behavior of materials at nanometer scale. As an initial guide, we have tried to find a possible anomalous magnetic behavior of Pd. In this way, nanostructured ...
