Table 3.

Calculation of the roughness factor (Rf) and electrochemically active surface area (ECSA) of the final structure formed from varying Au:Ag alloy composition. Charge under the reduction peak seen in CV was evaluated for all the different compositions. The 10:90 composition formed the hb-NPG structure with the highest roughness factor.
