Nonprecious bifunctional oxygen reduction reaction (ORR)/oxygen evolution (OER) catalysts in wide pH electrolytes are crucial for the versatile use of electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices. Non-noble metal/nitrogen-doped carbon (M–N/C) has been reported as a promising candidate efficient cost-effective catalysts. Nevertheless, stability catalytic activity M–N/C range still limited, especially neutral acidic electrolytes. Here, we synthesized directly grown N-doped bamboo-like...
With the increasing demand for diversification of renewable energy sources, high activity and stability electrocatalysts in all pH ranges have been highlighted as one future directions electrochemical generation storage systems. Noble-metal-free nitrogen-doped carbon (M-N/C) has explored a substitute expensive platinum-based oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalysts.
