摘要：High-entropy alloys(HEAs)have been widely studied due to their unconventional compositions and unique physicochemical properties for various ***,for the first time,we propose a surface strain strategy to tune the electrocatalytic activity of HEAs for methanol oxidation reaction(MOR).High-resolution aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy(STEM)and elemental mapping demonstrate both uniform atomic dispersion and the formation of a face-centered cubic(FCC)crystalline structure in Pt Fe Co Ni Cu *** HEAs obtained by heat treatment at 700℃(HEA-700)exhibit 0.94%compressive strain compared with that obtained at 400℃(HEA-400).As expected,the specific activity and mass activity of HEA-700 is higher than that of HEA-400 and most of the state-of-the-art *** enhanced MOR activity can be attributed to a shorter Pt–Pt bond distance in HEA-700 resulting from compressive *** nonprecious metal atoms in the core could generate compressive strain and down shift d-band centers via electron transfer to surface Pt *** work presents a new perspective for the design of high-performance HEAs electrocatalysts.
