Metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-N-C) single-atom catalysts are a promising type of catalyst that could help provide cost-effective alternatives to platinum-based ones. However, there are still some aspects ...

Scientists found that tweaking nitrogen arrangement around single cobalt atoms dramatically improves oxygen reduction, offering a blueprint for better fuel cell catalysts. Single-atom ...

As the global demand for sustainable energy solutions intensifies, the efficiency of devices like metal-air batteries and fuel cells hinges on a critical chemical process: the oxygen reduction ...

Scientists from the University of Science and Technology of China have created a novel “Janus” dual-atom catalyst (FeCo-N 3 O 3 @C), with Fe and Co atoms coordinated synergistically through an N-O ...

a) Atomic structure of the four molecules with different first-shell Co–N coordination considered in this study and (b) schematic illustration of the heterogeneous molecular catalysts (HMCs) prepared ...
