Researchers developed a copper–platinum (Cu₃Pt) catalyst using 75% less platinum that matches the performance of pure platinum in hydrogen fuel cells. A slight (<1%) mechanical compression changes the catalyst's electronic structure, boosting the oxygen reduction reaction. The approach could significantly reduce fuel cell costs, though long-term durability and large-scale manufacturing still need to be demonstrated. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0013468626014283?via%3Dihub
