Engineering d-p Orbital Hybridization in Single-Atom Metal-Embedded Three-Dimensional Electrodes for Li-S Batteries

Zhiyuan Han et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the d-p orbital hybridization between single-atom metals and sulfur species can serve as a descriptor for understanding the catalytic activity of SACs in Li-S batteries. Transition metals with lower atomic numbers, such as titanium, have been found to effectively bind lithium polysulfides and catalyze their electrochemical reaction. Single-atom metal catalysts embedded in three-dimensional electrodes prepared through a nitrogen coordination approach show high catalytic activity and low catalyst loading for improved sulfur utilization in Li-S batteries.

Identification of durable and non-durable FeNx sites in Fe-N-C materials for proton exchange membrane fuel cells

Jingkun Li et al.

Summary: Fe-N-C materials show promise as an alternative to platinum in acidic polymer fuel cells, but limited understanding of their operando degradation hinders rational approaches to improved durability. Two distinct FeNx sites in the catalysts degrade differently during the oxygen reduction reaction, with one site substantially contributing after 50 hours of operation.

Tailoring Acidic Oxygen Reduction Selectivity on Single-Atom Catalysts via Modification of First and Second Coordination Spheres

Cheng Tang et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that the molecular-level local structure, including first and second coordination spheres, plays a critical role in determining the selectivity of catalytic reactions. By modifying the first and second coordination spheres of Co-SACs, it is possible to tailor the oxygen reduction reaction selectivity. The unique selectivity change originates from the structure-dependent shift of active sites, leading to improved activity and selectivity for acidic H2O2 electrosynthesis.
