abstract = {Thanks to their remarkably high activity toward oxygen
reduction reaction (ORR), platinum-based octahedrally shaped
nanoparticles have attracted ever increasing attention in
last years. Although high activities for ORR catalysts have
been attained, the practical use is still limited by their
long-term stability. In this work, we present Rh-doped
Pt–Ni octahedral nanoparticles with high activities up to
1.14 A mgPt–1 combined with improved performance and shape
stability compared to previous bimetallic Pt–Ni octahedral
particles. The synthesis, the electrocatalytic performance
of the particles toward ORR, and atomic degradation
mechanisms are investigated with a major focus on a deeper
understanding of strategies to stabilize morphological
particle shape and consequently their performance. Rh
surface-doped octahedral Pt–Ni particles were prepared at
various Rh levels. At and above about 3 atom $\%,$ the
nanoparticles maintained their octahedral shape even past
30 000 potential cycles, while undoped bimetallic
reference nanoparticles show a complete loss in octahedral
shape already after 8000 cycles in the same potential
window. Detailed atomic insight in these observations is
obtained from aberration-corrected scanning transmission
electron microscopy (STEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX)
analysis. Our analysis shows that it is the migration of Pt
surface atoms and not, as commonly thought, the dissolution
of Ni that constitutes the primary origin of the octahedral
shape loss for Pt–Ni nanoparticles. Using small amounts of
Rh we were able to suppress the migration rate of platinum
atoms and consequently suppress the octahedral shape loss of
Pt–Ni nanoparticles.},
