TL;DR: In this paper, an electrocatalyst with excellent performance for both hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water splitting was designed by filling the oxygen vacancies with heteroatoms in the VO-rich Co3O4.

TL;DR: In this paper, a boron-doped graphene was used as an efficient metal-free N2 reduction electrocatalyst, achieving a NH3 production rate of 9.8μg·hr−1·cm−2 and one of the highest reported faradic efficiencies of 10.8% at −0.5 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode in aqueous solutions at ambient conditions.

TL;DR: Recent advances regarding the identification of active sites for the CO2 RR and the pathway of reduction of CO2 to the final product are comprehensively reviewed and some perspectives on the development of heteroatom-doped carbon materials as metal-free electrocatalysts for theCO2 RR are included.

TL;DR: The alpha-Fe(2)O(3) with various morphologies has been successfully synthesized via an ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal synthetic method and is expected to be a useful technique for controlling the diverse shapes of crystalline inorganic materials for a variety of applications, including sensors, gas and heavy metal ion adsorbents, catalytic fields, hydrogen and Li ion storage, and controlled drug delivery.

TL;DR: Theoretical analysis and systematic experiments prove that Se-doping enables FeOOH as an efficient and low-cost OER electrocatalyst and develop a facile on-site electrochemical activation strategy for achieving such a Se- doped FeOOh electrode via an FeSe precatalyst.
