Coordination environments tune the activity of oxygen catalysis on single atom catalysts: A computational study

Gaofan Xiao et al.

Summary: By utilizing density functional theory calculations, this research systematically studied the ORR/OER performances of nitrogen-coordinated transition metal carbon materials and found that asymmetric tri-coordinated catalysts, particularly NiN3-C, exhibit stronger catalytic intermediate adsorption capacity and lower overpotential, making them highly efficient bifunctional catalysts for oxygen catalysis. The enhanced effect is attributed to additional orbital interaction, as evidenced by changes in d-band center and integral crystal orbital Hamilton population. This study not only provides a potential bifunctional oxygen catalyst, but also enriches knowledge in coordination engineering for tailoring the activity of single-atom catalysts.
