Abstract:Constructing heteronanostructures is an essential approach for integrating multiple functionalities into one single entity. Here, PtCo/Co 9 S 8 composites with bridging heterointerfaces are synthesized using an ultrafast hightemperature shock strategy. The oxygen electrocatalysis of PtCo/Co 9 S 8 is remarkably enhanced by constructing the well-coupled Pt−Co−S interfaces in the composites, in which the Co acts as the bridging linkage. PtCo/Co 9 S 8 composites show efficient bifunctional activities toward oxygen… Show more
“…This expansion in surface area not only increases the number of effective active sites but also accelerates the catalytic reactions by facilitating more rapid interactions. 91–93 The diversification of active sites can be realized by incorporating various metal species and heteroatoms, such as forming additional metal-N structures or constructing pyridinic N and pyrrolic N configurations. Synergistic interactions between metal–metal and metal–heteroatom also contribute to advancing the reaction processes.…”
