Fig. 1: Structural characterization of the catalysts.

a–c Structure diagrams (The green tubes represent Al2O3. The magenta and yellow balls represent Pt and CoOx, respectively), d–f TEM images (scale bar, 50 nm), g–i HAADF-STEM images (scale bar, 50 nm), and j–l EDX elemental mappings (scale bar, 100 nm) of the catalysts. a, d, g, j: CoOx/50Al2O3; b, e, h, k: CoOx/50Al2O3/Pt; and c, f, i, l CoOx/100Al2O3/Pt.
