we report the preparation of octahedral Pt2CuNi uniform alloy nanoparticle catalyst with both high ORR activity and much improved stability comparing to the Pt-Ni counterparts and state-of-the-art commercial Pt/C. The mechanism for the formation of shaped Pt2CuNi alloy and its enhanced activity and stability would also be discussed in details.
