TL;DR: P palladium is added into MoS2 materials to activate and stabilize the conductive basal plane to improve the electrocatalytic activity and open the possibility of manipulating the catalytic performance ofMoS2 to rival platinum.

TL;DR: A spontaneously absorbed electron-withdrawing OH ligand was proposed to act proactively as an energy level modifier to empower easy intermediate desorption, while the triangular Fe-Co-OH coordination facilitates O-O bond scission, and this finding opens up a novel strategy to tailor the electronic structure of an atomic site towards boosted activity.

TL;DR: A novel Ru-SSC with appropriate adsorption free energy of OH* (ΔGOH*) to confer excellent activity and low Fenton reactivity to maintain long-term stability is demonstrated and the practical application of Ru- SSC is validated by showing excellentActivity and stability in a real fuel cell device.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a novel matrix architecture in which a trace amount of Pt is alloyed in situ with Ru nanoparticles uniformly and partially embedded in porous carbon spheres, which significantly increase the electrocatalytic activity in the hydrogen evolution process.

TL;DR: A rational manipulation strategy for introducing axial bonded O to the Fe sites, attained through hexa-coordinating Fe with oxygen functional groups in the precursor, opens up a novel strategy to manage coordination environment at atomic scale towards high activity ORR catalysts.
