Design of Noble Metal Electrocatalysts on an Atomic Level

Chao, Tingting, Hu, Yanmin, Hong, Xun, Li, Yadong·2019·ChemElectroChem

Abstract

Nanostructured noble metal‐based materials have been considered in recent years as promising catalysts for energy storage and conversion. One of their prominent applications is a series of electrochemical processes in fuel cells, as they show excellent electrocatalytic performance towards the reactions occurring at both anode and cathode. Nowadays, considerable efforts have been devoted to boosting the catalytic activity and minimizing the used amount of precious metals. In this review, we introduce the recent advances regarding controllable synthesis of noble metal electrocatalysts at an atomic level. Important electrochemical reactions, such as oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), electroreduction of carbon dioxide (CO 2) and so on, catalyzed by precisely controllable noble metal electrocatalysts will be highlighted. This review primarily focuses on the exploration for the relationship between atomic‐level structure of electrocatalysts and their enhanced catalytic property combining theoretical calculations and experiments. Finally, perspectives for further advances of noble metal nanomaterials are proposed to realize rational design of electrocatalysts at an atomic level.

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.
