TL;DR: A general host–guest strategy to make various single-atom catalysts on nitrogen-doped carbon has been developed; the iridium variant electrocatalyses the formic acid oxidation reaction with high mass activity and displays high tolerance to CO poisoning.

TL;DR: A versatile lithium reduction strategy to engineer the defects of oxides at room temperature leading to enhanced photocatalytic properties is developed and may be beneficial for many other related applications.

TL;DR: Combined experimental and computational studies suggest that surface phosphorus plays a crucial role in determining the robust catalyst properties of rhodium phosphide electrocatalyst with low metal loading in the form of nanocubes dispersed in high-surface-area carbon (Rh2P/C).

TL;DR: In Pt1/Fe2O3 SAC, the coordination number of the first shell Pt-O is well correlated with the Pt electronic property and the hydrogenation activity, which reveals the unique role of SACs as a bridge between heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis.

TL;DR: Theoretical and experimental studies clearly demonstrate that Rh single atoms adapt their local coordination and reactivity in response to various redox conditions.
