Abstract
Both the ligand effect and surface strain can affect the electrocatalytic reactivity. In that matter exists a need to be fundamentally understood; however, there is no effective strategy to isolate the strain effect in electrocatalytic systems. In this research we show how the elastic strain in a platin
