摘要
Isolated diatomic Zn-Fe anchored on nitrogen-doped carbon is explored as an efficient and robust electrocatalyst for N(2)reduction in a neutral aqueous electrolyte, delivering a high NH(3)yield rate (30.5 mu g h(-1)mg(cat.)(-1)) and considerable faradaic efficiency (26.5%) at a low overpotential of -300 mV. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the Zn-Fe atomic pairs synergistically favor N(2)activation and reduce the reaction barrier for the rate-limiting step of intermediate *NNH formation.
