Multi-scale study on bifunctional Co/Fe–N–C cathode catalyst layers with high active site density for the oxygen reduction reaction

Simultaneous optimization of CoIr alloy nanoparticles and 2D graphitic-N doped carbon support in CoIr@CN by Ir doping for enhanced oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions

“…2d). 42,43 The same types of N dopants are also discerned from the N 1s signal of CoIr@CN-0.15 and CoIr@CN-0.25 with a great variation in peak position and intensity (Fig. S7 †).…”

Understanding the active sites of Fe–N–C materials and their properties in the ORR catalysis system

“…[13][14][15] ZIF-8 has been widely investigated in ORR electrocatalysis. The current research focuses on the control of synthesis, 10,16,17 design of pore patterns and morphology, [18][19][20][21] multicomponent doping [21][22][23][24] and composites with other materials [25][26][27][28] to achieve catalysts with high performance, in addition to discussing the catalytic mechanism. For the optimization of synthesis conditions, research is focused on the type and dosage of metal and the process of heat treatment.…”

Fast Current‐Driven Synthesis of ZIF‐Derived Catalyst Layers for High‐Performance Zn‐Air Battery

“…other metals, such as Co, [5] Fe, [6] and Cu [7] elements. After pyrolysis, the involatile metals can also act as the active center for ORR and OER, leading to prominent electrocatalytic activity.…”
