Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is greatly affected by the morphology as well as the elemental composition of the nitrogen-doped carbon-based electrocatalysts. Thus, this work focuses on: (i) nitrogen doping of different graphene-based materials (two-dimensional materials: chemically converted graphene, graphene oxide, and commercially available graphene, and one-dimensional material: graphene nanoribbons) that differ from each other by morphology as well as elemental composition and (ii) studying the ORR performance of these N-doped carbonaceous catalysts in alkaline medium. The nitrogen doping is achieved by low-cost synthetic method based on hydrothermal treatment at mild conditions. The results indicate that: (i) nitrogen doping is dependent on the carbonaceous substrate used and (ii) these N-doped graphene-based catalysts vary drastically by the electrocatalytic activity for ORR as well as the selectivity for HO2- and OH- production in alkaline medium. Roughly, predominantly was produced on two-dimensional graphene-based catalysts enriched with low nitrogen content (0.9-1.4 at.%) and mostly OH- was formed on graphene nanoribbons as one-dimensional catalyst containing low amount of nitrogen (2.1 at.%). This work is valuable for giving further insights to the ORR performance on N-doped graphene-based nanocarbons.
