Abstract
Bimetallic nanoparticles (BMNPs) are frontrunners in various fields including heterogeneous catalysis, medicinal applications, and medical imaging. Tailoring their properties requires adequate control over their structure and composition, which still presents a non-trivial endeavor. We present a flexible strategy to deposit phase-controlled BMNPs by vapor-phase “titration” of a secondary metal to a pre-deposited monometallic nanoparticle (NP) host. The strategy is exemplified for archetypal Pt–Sn BMNPs but transferrable to other BMNPs which alloy noble and non-noble metals. When exposing Pt NPs on a SiO2 support to discrete TDMASn (tetrakis(dimethylamino)tin) vapor pulses from 150 to 300 °C, TDMASn selectively decomposes on Pt NPs. This leads to saturated infiltration of Sn into Pt NPs through reactive solid-state diffusion, resulting in the formation of Pt–Sn BMNPs with phase/composition control via the substrate temperature. An additional H2 pulse after each TDMASn pulse removes the surface ligands and excess Sn on the surface as SnH4, preserving the small sizes of the pre-deposited Pt NPs. This approach provides a single-step, selective “vapor-phase conversion” of Pt NPs into PtxSny BMNPs with great potential for catalysis. Hereto, a proof of concept is provided by converting wet impregnated Pt NPs into Pt–Sn BMNPs on high surface area supports.
