Single-Atom Catalysts for Electrochemical Water Splitting
Abstract
High-efficiency electrocatalysts with superior activity and stability are crucial to practical applications in water splitting, including the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Downsizing the conventional nanoparticle catalyst to single atoms and constructing single-atom catalysts (SACs) is a rapidly emerging research focus. Because of the involvement of unique single-atom active moieties and the strong metal–support interactions arising from interfacial bonding, SACs as promising alternatives to noble metal-based nanoparticle catalysts exhibit profound power in the HER and OER. Here, we present a perspective on the exciting advances of SACs for HER and OER applications, with an emphasis on innovative synthetic strategies and an in-depth understanding of the structure–activity relationship through a combination of systematic characterization and theoretical studies. Finally, the challenges and some of the critical issues in this field are addressed.

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.
