Electronic and Structural Engineering of Carbon‐Based Metal‐Free Electrocatalysts for Water Splitting
Open accessAbstract
Since first being reported as possible electrocatalysts to substitute platinum for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), carbon‐based metal‐free nanomaterials have been considered a class of promising low‐cost materials for clean and sustainable energy‐conversion reactions. However, beyond the ORR, the development of carbon‐based catalysts for other electrocatalytic reactions is still limited. More importantly, the intrinsic activity of most carbon‐based metal‐free catalysts is inadequate compared to their metal‐based counterparts. To address this challenge, more design strategies are needed in order to improve the overall performance of carbon‐based materials. Herein, using water splitting as an example, some state‐of‐the‐art strategies in promoting carbon‐based nanomaterials are summarized, including graphene, carbon nanotubes, and graphitic‐carbon nitride, as highly active electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution and oxygen evolution reactions. It is shown that by rationally tuning the electronic and/or physical structure of the carbon nanomaterials, adsorption of reaction intermediates is optimized, consequently improving the apparent electrocatalytic performance. These strategies may facilitate the development in this area and lead to the discovery of advanced carbon‐based nanomaterials for various applications in energy‐conversion processes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
