Abstract
⺠Pt and Ru nanoclusters were deposited on amine-functionalized silica nanoparticles. ⺠Template interactions were used to control composition, size, and distribution of nanoclusters. ⺠Electrochemical measurements of methanol oxidation demonstrated high catalytic activity for the nanoclusters.
