Journal ArticleDOI
Boosting Oxygen Reduction of Single Iron Active Sites via Geometric and Electronic Engineering: Nitrogen and Phosphorus Dual Coordination
Kai Yuan,Kai Yuan,Dirk Lützenkirchen-Hecht,Longbin Li,Ling Shuai,Yizhe Li,Rui Cao,Ming Qiu,Xiaodong Zhuang,Michael K.H. Leung,Yiwang Chen,Ullrich Scherf +11 more
TL;DR: This work developed and determined carbon nanosheets embedded with nitrogen and phosphorus dual-coordinated iron active sites that were favorable for oxygen intermediate adsorption/desorption, resulting in accelerated reaction kinetics and promising catalytic oxygen reduction activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synergetic Contribution of Boron and Fe–Nx Species in Porous Carbons toward Efficient Electrocatalysts for Oxygen Reduction Reaction
Kai Yuan,Kai Yuan,Stavroula Sfaelou,Ming Qiu,Dirk Lützenkirchen-Hecht,Xiaodong Zhuang,Xiaodong Zhuang,Yiwang Chen,Chris Yuan,Xinliang Feng,Ullrich Scherf +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate a general approach to porous carbons decorated with boron centers and atomically dispersed Fe-Nx species, which can serve as efficient electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in an alkaline medium with a half-wave potential of 0.838 V vs RHE.
Journal ArticleDOI
When Al-Doped Cobalt Sulfide Nanosheets Meet Nickel Nanotube Arrays: A Highly Efficient and Stable Cathode for Asymmetric Supercapacitors.
Jun Huang,Junchao Wei,Yingbo Xiao,Yazhou Xu,Yujuan Xiao,Ying Wang,Licheng Tan,Kai Yuan,Yiwang Chen +8 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrated that the electrochemical activity of cobalt sulfide could be significantly improved by Al doping, and provided a general, effective route to prepare high-performance electrode materials for flexible all-solid-state energy storage devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanofibrous and Graphene-Templated Conjugated Microporous Polymer Materials for Flexible Chemosensors and Supercapacitors
Kai Yuan,Peiyao Guo-Wang,Ting Hu,Lei Shi,Rong Zeng,Michael Forster,Thomas Pichler,Yiwang Chen,Ullrich Scherf +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, light-emitting, nanofibrous films were fabricated by electrospinning CMP/poly(lactic acid) (PLA) mixtures, which showed a high flexibility combined with high porosity and surface-area-to-volume ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI
Straightforward Generation of Pillared, Microporous Graphene Frameworks for Use in Supercapacitors.
Kai Yuan,Yazhou Xu,Johannes Uihlein,Gunther Brunklaus,Lei Shi,Ralf Heiderhoff,Mingming Que,Michael Forster,Thomas Chassé,Thomas Pichler,Thomas Riedl,Yiwang Chen,Ullrich Scherf +12 more
TL;DR: Microporous, pillared graphene-based frameworks are generated in a simple functionalization/coupling procedure starting from reduced graphene oxide for the fabrication of high-performance supercapacitor devices.
