The Pt nanoalloy surfaces often show unique electronic and physicochemical properties that
are distinct from those of their parent metals, which provide significant room for manipulating …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are widely considered as electrochemically active
materials. However, direct application of MOFs is hindered by their poor conductivity and …

Developing efficient nanosized electrocatalysts is crucial for driving the urea oxidation
reaction (UOR) and conversion. Atomically dispersed metal atoms in two-dimensional …

The electro-oxidation of H2 (HOR) is 200× slower in base than in acid, hampering the
deployment of alkaline fuel cells. It is disputed whether the hydrogen binding energy (HBE) …

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are playing irreplaceable roles in the
construction of the future sustainable energy system. However, the insufficient performance …

Owing to the simplicity in practice and continuous fine‐tuning ability toward the binding
strengths of adsorbates, the strain effect is intensively explored, especially focused on the …

Methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) performance can be effectively regulated by tuning the
electronic state of catalyst via surface functionalization strategy. Herein, a surface …

Single-atom loading of the non-precious transition metals (M= Ti, V, Mn, and Fe) on the
(100) surface of SrTiO 3 (STO) was theoretically investigated to evaluate the hydrogen …

The interaction of single Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu atoms with polar terminations of orthorhombic
Mo 2 C (0 0 1) surface has been investigated at low surface coverage by using density …

Ni-based bimetallic catalysts have been widely used in the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction,
but the synergistic effect and reaction mechanism over bimetallic catalysts are rather limited …
