A M-N_3/C Active Site Prepared through Terpyridine Motifs (M= Fe, Co, Mn, Ni, Sn) for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction

摘要

Non-noble catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are in high demand for fuel cell technology due to their use of low cost and widely available starting materials. The development of these catalysts has been a constantly growing area. However, to the extent of our knowledge, there have only been a few literature reports that provide insights into the nature of the structure and geometry of the catalytically active sites formed in these materials.
