Minor Impact of Ligand Shell Steric Profile on Colloidal Nanocarbon Catalysis

The catalytic activity of a colloidal nanoparticle is typically inhibited by the very capping agents that are required to maintain colloidal stability and catalyst dispersion. However, the relative importance of steric contributions to the observed attenuation in catalytic activity is poorly underst...
