TL;DR: PtAu nanoparticles were shown to strongly enhance the kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in rechargeable Li-O(2) cells, found to exhibit the highest round-trip efficiency reported to date.

TL;DR: In this article, layer-by-layer techniques are used to assemble an electrode that consists of additive-free, densely packed and functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes, which can store lithium up to a reversible gravimetric capacity of approximately 200 mA h g(-1) while also delivering 100 kW kg(electrode) of power and providing lifetimes in excess of thousands of cycles.

TL;DR: In this paper, a facile and scalable approach to fabricate highly efficient three-dimensional (3D) bulk catalysts of core-shell nanostructures, in which few-layer NiFe layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets are grown on Cu nanowire cores supported on Cu foams, toward overall water splitting.

TL;DR: In this article, the surface area loss of supported platinum (Pt) electrocatalysts in low-temperature fuel cells was discussed and it was argued that submonolayer dissolution of Pt nanoparticles governs the surface loss at high voltages by increasing the loss of Pt from carbon and coarsening of Pt on carbon.

TL;DR: A hybrid catalyst constructed by iron and dinickel phosphides on nickel foams that drives both the hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions well in base, and thus substantially expedites overall water splitting is reported, which outperforms the integrated iridium (IV) oxide and platinum couple (1.57 V).
