Single Mo1(Cr1) Atom on Nitrogen-Doped Graphene Enables Highly Selective Electroreduction of Nitrogen into Ammonia
Wanghui Zhao,Lifu Zhang,Qiquan Luo,Zhenpeng Hu,Wenhua Zhang,Wenhua Zhang,Sean C. Smith,Jinlong Yang +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors search for new types of electrocatalysts with high stability, activity, and selectivity for the production of ammonia via electroreduction of nitrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
General π-Electron-Assisted Strategy for Ir, Pt, Ru, Pd, Fe, Ni Single-Atom Electrocatalysts with Bifunctional Active Sites for Highly Efficient Water Splitting
Weihong Lai,Lifu Zhang,Weibo Hua,Sylvio Indris,Zichao Yan,Zhe Hu,Binwei Zhang,Yani Liu,Li Wang,Min Liu,Rong Liu,Yunxiao Wang,Jiazhao Wang,Zhenpeng Hu,Hua-Kun Liu,Shulei Chou,Shi Xue Dou +16 more
TL;DR: A general π-electron-assisted strategy to anchor diverse single-atom sites (M1), including iridium (Ir1), platinum (Pt1), ruthenium (Ru1), palladium (Pd1), iron (Fe1), and nickel (Ni1), on a heterogeneous support is reported, which exhibits the best water splitting performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quadruple perovskite ruthenate as a highly efficient catalyst for acidic water oxidation.
TL;DR: A quadruple perovskite ruthenate oxide CaCu3Ru4O12 is reported as a superior catalyst for acidic water oxidation and has a lower Ru 4d-band center relative to RuO2, which effectively optimizes the binding energy of oxygen intermediates and thereby enhances the catalytic activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Crucial Role of Charge Accumulation and Spin Polarization in Activating Carbon‐Based Catalysts for Electrocatalytic Nitrogen Reduction
Yuanyuan Yang,Lifu Zhang,Zhenpeng Hu,Yao Zheng,Cheng Tang,Ping Chen,Ruguang Wang,Kang-Wen Qiu,Jing Mao,Tao Ling,Shi-Zhang Qiao,Shi-Zhang Qiao +11 more
TL;DR: It is revealed that heteroatom-doping induced charge accumulation facilitates N 2 adsorption on carbon atom and spin polarization boosts the potential-determining step of the first protonation to form *NNH.
Journal ArticleDOI
gt-C 3 N 4 coordinated single atom as an efficient electrocatalyst for nitrogen reduction reaction
TL;DR: In this article, a series of transition metal (TM = Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Tc, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, and Cd) atoms supported by gt-C3N4 (TM/gt-C 3N4) are investigated as electrocatalysts for the nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) based on density functional calculations.
