TL;DR: Theoretical calculations elucidate that the introduction of axial oxygen atom could optimize surface states of Ni-N4 moieties and enhance the charge polarization effect, therefore decreasing the potential barrier of intermediate COOH* formation, a key factor to accelerate the reaction kinetics and boost the CO2RR performance.

TL;DR: In this article, a concise review of recent advances in designing 3D dual transition metal non-oxides electrocatalysts for OER under alkaline condition is provided with particular emphasis on structure-performance relationships.

TL;DR: In this article, a proton capture strategy was developed by accelerating the water dissociation reaction catalyzed by transition-metal nanoparticles (NPs) adjacent to atomically dispersed and nitrogen-coordinated single nickel (Ni-Nx ) active sites to accelerate proton transfer to the latter for boosting the intermediate protonation step, and thus the whole ECR process.

TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of recent progress in the application of nanostructured carbon-based non-precious metal electrocatalysts (Nano-CNMs) is presented.
