Atomically dispersed Fe sites on hierarchically porous carbon nanoplates for oxygen reduction reaction

Developing cost-effective,robust and stable non-precious metal catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)is of paramount importance for electrochemical energy conversion devices such as fuel cells and metal-air batteries.Although Fe-N-C single atom catalysts(SACs)have been hailed as the most promising candidate due to the optimal binding strength of ORR intermediates on the Fe-N4 sites,they suffer from serious mass transport limitations as microporous templates/substrates,i.e.,zeolitic imidazolate frame-works(ZIFs),are usually employed to host the active sites.Motivated by this challenge,we herein develop a hydrogen-bonded organic framework(HOF)-assisted pyrolysis strategy to construct hierarchi-cal micro/mesoporous carbon nanoplates for the deposition of atomically dispersed Fe-N4 sites.Such a design is accomplished by employing HOF nanoplates assembled from 2-aminoterephthalic acid(NH2-BDC)and p-phenylenediamine(PDA)as both soft templates and C,N precursors.Benefitting from the structural merits inherited from HOF templates,the optimized catalyst(denoted as Fe-N-C SAC-950)dis-plays outstanding ORR activity with a high half-wave potential of 0.895 V(vs.reversible hydrogen elec-trode(RHE))and a small overpotential of 356 mV at 10 mA cm-2 for the oxygen evolution reaction(OER).More excitingly,its application potential is further verified by delivering superb rechargeability and cycling stability with a nearly unfading charge-discharge gap of 0.72 V after 160 h.Molecular dynamics(MD)simulations reveal that micro/mesoporous structure is conducive to the rapid mass transfer of O2,thus enhancing the ORR performance.In situ Raman results further indicate that the conversion of O2 to*O2-the rate-determining step(RDS)for Fe-N-C SAC-950.This work will provide a versatile strategy to construct single atom catalysts with desirable catalytic properties.
