Abstract
⺠This is the first report of Pt-Ni glancing angle deposited (GLAD) based electrocatalysts. ⺠We contrast 2 methods to electro-deposit Pt on GLAD Ni nanopillars. ⺠We evaluate 2-propanol oxidation activity of the Pt-Ni deposits in alkaline media. ⺠Activity at low potentials results from the combined activity of Ni and Pt. ⺠At high potentials, Ni promotes Pt activity via a bifunctional effect.
