A single-atom library for guided monometallic and concentration-complex multimetallic designs

Lili Han et al.

Summary: Single-atom catalysts have shown enhanced catalytic properties, but most studies have focused on a limited number of metal combinations. In this research, a library of 37 different monometallic elements is synthesized, characterized, and analyzed to establish the largest reported single-atom catalyst library. Unified principles on the design of single-atom catalysts are uncovered, and the library is utilized to explore complex multimetallic phase spaces. The findings demonstrate that single-atom anchor sites can serve as structural units to assemble concentration-complex single-atom catalyst materials with multiple elements.

Constructing Graphitic-Nitrogen-Bonded Pentagons in Interlayer-Expanded Graphene Matrix toward Carbon-Based Electrocatalysts for Acidic Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Shuai Liu et al.

Summary: A novel carbon-based electrocatalyst with high activity and durability for the oxygen reduction reaction in acidic electrolytes is reported, achieved by constructing graphitic-nitrogen-bonded pentagons to improve intrinsic activity and increase active sites. Characterizations confirm the formation of GN-bonded pentagons in the carbon material, with activity linearly associated with the amounts of pentagons and adjacent GN atoms. Density function theory demonstrates that adjacent GN atoms significantly increase the charge density at the carbon atom of a GN-bonded pentagon, which is the activity origin for the ORR.

Understanding the inter-site distance effect in single-atom catalysts for oxygen electroreduction

Zhaoyu Jin et al.

Summary: Regulating the site density of single-atom catalysts can significantly improve electrocatalysis performance, such as the oxygen reduction reaction. Strong interactions between adjacent Fe-N-4 moieties can enhance intrinsic ORR activity, with a marked improvement continuing until neighbouring Fe atoms approach as close as about 0.7 nm. Identifying the fundamental mechanism of the inter-site distance effect in Fe-N-4 catalysts may maximize the potential of densely populated SACs.
