Designing of Efficient Bifunctional ORR/OER Pt Single-Atom Catalysts Based on O-Terminated MXenes by First-Principles Calculations

Dongxiao Kan et al.

Summary: MXenes are utilized as substrate materials for single-atom catalysts (SACs) due to their unique two-dimensional structure, high surface area, and high electronic conductivity. This study identified the use of O-terminated MXenes as substrates may weaken the catalytic activity of Pt, leading to the successful construction of bifunctional Pt SACs by adjusting the electronic structure of MXenes. Moreover, practical application factors such as overpotential, solvation effect, and reaction barriers were considered to screen out four high-performance bifunctional oxygen reduction reaction/oxygen evolution reaction (ORR/OER) catalysts originated from Cr-based MXenes.
