Carbon charge population and oxygen molecular transport regulated by program-doping for highly efficient 4e-ORR

Tong Zhang et al.

Summary: Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a crucial reaction in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) generation and fuel cells. Carbon, as a catalyst, shows potential to enhance the kinetics of ORR, but its intrinsic activity is under debate. This work explores the co-regulation of nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) to control the charge population of carbon. It is found that electron-withdrawing configurations of N and thiophene-S lead to more positive charge distribution, while pyrrole-N acts as an electron-donor and disrupts charge delocalization. The study also demonstrates the enhancement of O-2 transfer by physical absorption and reaction consumption.

Probing the catalytic activity of M-N4-xOx embedded graphene for the oxygen reduction reaction by density functional theory

Fan Ge et al.

Summary: In this study, the detailed ORR catalytic performance of M-N4-xOx (M = Fe, Co, and Ni; x = 1-4) was explored using density functional theory. Two highly active ORR catalysts, Co-N3O1 and Ni-N2O2, with very small overpotentials were identified. The electronic structure analysis suggests that the high activity of these catalysts is attributed to their small energy gaps and moderate energy levels.

Rational Design of Highly Stable and Active MXene-Based Bifunctional ORR/OER Double-Atom Catalysts

Bo Wei et al.

Summary: Designing highly active and bifunctional oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts with non-noble metals such as Fe/Co/Ni on MXene surfaces has shown superior performance compared to traditional unifunctional catalysts, providing a novel pathway for tunable catalytic behavior in MXenes. The electronic structure analyses revealed that the excellent catalytic activities in MXene-based DACs are attributed to the electron-capturing capability and synergistic interactions between Fe/Co/Ni adsorbents and MXene substrate. These findings not only suggest promising candidates for MXene-based bifunctional ORR/OER catalysts but also offer new theoretical insights into rationally designing noble-metal-free bifunctional DACs.
