Hydrogen (H2) is a promising energy resource and can be utilized in high-efficiency power generation systems such as fuel cells. However, the transport and storage of H2 are obstacles for its practical use. Ammonia (NH3) is a good candidate as an alternative H2 carrier because of its high H2 storage capacity and facile liquefaction under mild conditions [1]. Because high-purity H2 is required to generate electricity with a fuel cell, a high-performance catalyst for producing H2 from decomposition of NH3 is needed when NH3 is used as a H2 carrier.
