Platinum (Pt) is widely adopted in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), which efficiently convert the chemical energy of a fuel, typical hydrogen, into electrical energy electrochemically. However, PEMFCs are commercially limited by the expensive Pt and low catalytic activity preventing the...
