Abstract Iron phthalocyanine (FePc) is a promising non-precious catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Unfortunately, FePc with plane-symmetric FeN 4 site usually exhibits an unsatisfactory ORR activity due to its poor O 2 adsorption and activation. Here, we report axial Fe–O coordination induced electronic localization strategy improve adsorption, activation thus performance. Theoretical calculations indicate that evokes among direction of O–FeN sites enhance To realize this...
Abstract Developing high-performance electrocatalysts toward hydrogen evolution reaction is important for clean and sustainable energy, yet still challenging. Herein, we report a single-atom strategy to construct excellent metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) electrocatalyst (NiRu 0.13 -BDC) by introducing atomically dispersed Ru. Significantly, the obtained NiRu -BDC exhibits outstanding activity in all pH, especially with low overpotential of 36 mV at current density 10 mA cm −2 1 M phosphate...

Atomically dispersed FeN4 catalysts have been considered as potential materials to replace Pt-based for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), but they often suffer from sluggish O2 activation kinetics due symmetrical charge distribution.

Theoretical calculations reveal that introduction of PN evokes much enhanced redistribution local...
