It is very significant to obtain highly efficient, cost-effective, and durable electrocatalysts toward triiodide reduction reaction (TRR) in hybrid photovoltaics. In this study, a nickel-based single-atom catalyst (SAC) (Ni-SAC) was prepared by the facile carbonization of [email?protected] and ...
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) exhibit exceptional intrinsic activity per metal site, but are often limited by low metal loading, which compromises the overall catalytic performance. Pyrolytic strategies commonly used for synthesizing SACs generally suffer from aggregation at high metal loadings. Here we ...
Hydrogen production from water splitting using renewable electric energy is an interesting topic towards the carbon neutral future. Single atom catalysts (SACs) have emerged as a new frontier in the field of catalysis such as hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), owing to their intriguing properties lik...

In another report, “unprotected” Pt nanoclusters were deposited on nitrogen-doped SWCNHs (N-SWCNHs) to form a highly durable and active nanocomposite cathode catalysts (Pt/N-SWCNHs) [31]. The specific catalytic activity and mass catalytic activity for the oxygen reduction reaction over Pt/N-...
Moreover, the chemical defects and crystal edges of SWCNHs confer good electrocatalytic properties and make them good candidates for iodide/triiodide redox reactions. The processability of SWCNHs in solution not only affords films with high porosity and a large surface area, but also produces ...
