Although considerable interest has been devoted to revealing the formation of vigorous particles, very little is known about the regulating mechanism of these particles being self-assembled into higher-order supercrystals. Herein, we present a robust one-step approach to create three-dimensional (3D) Pt/Pd nanocrystal superlattices (NSLs) via self-assembly of Pt/Pd seeds anchored on polyvinylpyrrolidone chains into 3D networks with the assistance of Pt2+/Pd2+ coordinated N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as a bridging backbone linker. The 3D Pt/Pd NSLs are composed of well-defined interior Pt/Pd nanocrystals in a 3D face-centered cubic (fcc) superlattice oriented along the (111), (200) and (220) planes. EXAFS and XPS measurements confirm the strong synergy effect of Pt/Pd in 3D Pt/Pd NSLs due to the rich Pt0 species on the surface, predicting the enhanced electrocatalytic performance. The DFT calculations further reveal that the electrocatalytic enhancement of 3D Pt/Pd NSLs arises from the improved capability of methanol adsorption on metallic Pt active sites enriched by appropriate Pd alloying and surface nitrogen doping during the synthesis. The 3D Pt/Pd NSLs show a high current density of 952 mA mg−1, 4.7 times higher than that of the commercial Pt/C catalyst. The self-assembly pathways may be extended to synthesize other 3D noble metal NSLs with enhanced electrocatalytic performance for direct methanol fuel cells.
