Journal ArticleDOI
In Situ Exfoliated, Edge-Rich, Oxygen-Functionalized Graphene from Carbon Fibers for Oxygen Electrocatalysis.
Zhijuan Liu,Zhenghang Zhao,Yanyong Wang,Shuo Dou,Dafeng Yan,Dongdong Liu,Zhenhai Xia,Zhenhai Xia,Shuangyin Wang +8 more
TL;DR: The first example of in situ exfoliated, edge-rich, oxygen-functionalized graphene on the surface of carbon fibers using Ar plasma treatment is successfully prepared and has a higher specific surface area and an increased number of active sites for OER and ORR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design Principles for Heteroatom‐Doped Carbon Nanomaterials as Highly Efficient Catalysts for Fuel Cells and Metal–Air Batteries
TL;DR: Oxygen reduction reaction/oxygen evolution reaction (ORR/OER) catalytic activities of p-orbital heteroatom-doped carbon nanomaterials are demonstrated to correlate to the combination of the electron affinity and electronegativity of doping elements, which serves as an activity descriptor for the entire family ofp-block element dopants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Covalent Organic Framework Electrocatalysts for Clean Energy Conversion.
TL;DR: The recent advances in the design and synthesis of COF-based catalysts for clean energy conversion and storage are presented and future research directions and perspectives are also discussed for the development of efficient COf-based electrocatalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Situ Phosphatizing of Triphenylphosphine Encapsulated within Metal-Organic Frameworks to Design Atomic Co1-P1N3 Interfacial Structure for Promoting Catalytic Performance.
Jiawei Wan,Zhenghang Zhao,Huishan Shang,Bo Peng,Wenxing Chen,Jiajing Pei,Lirong Zheng,Juncai Dong,Rui Cao,Ritimukta Sarangi,Zhuoli Jiang,Danni Zhou,Zhongbin Zhuang,Jiatao Zhang,Dingsheng Wang,Yadong Li +15 more
TL;DR: It is discovered that the bond-length-extended high-valence Co1-P1N3 atomic interface structure plays crucial role in boosting the HER performance, which is supported by in-situ XAFS measurements and density functional theory (DFT) calculation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design Principles for Dual-Element-Doped Carbon Nanomaterials as Efficient Bifunctional Catalysts for Oxygen Reduction and Evolution Reactions
Zhenghang Zhao,Zhenhai Xia +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an activity descriptor is identified for the codoped carbon nanomaterials, which correlates doping structures to their catalytic activities and also predicts that the synergistic effect of codoping occurs within a certain distance between the codopants.
