Low-Valent Mo Single Atoms Stabilized by Electronegative Oxygen Coordination Enables Efficient Water Oxidation

YYYang Claire YangJLJ.G. LiQYQian-Nan Yang

Key Points

  • This research aims to develop low-valent molybdenum single atom catalysts for efficient water oxidation.
  • Designed single atom catalysts with low-valent molybdenum centers.
  • Synthesized catalysts with electronegative oxygen coordination.
  • Conducted experiments to measure water oxidation efficiency.
  • Identified the efficiency of water oxidation improved with low-valent molybdenum.
  • Demonstrated that electronegative oxygen coordination stabilizes the single atoms.
  • Achieved higher catalytic activity compared to traditional catalysts.

Abstract

Rational design and atomically precise synthesis of efficiently low-valent single atom catalysts, particularly those in which isolated transition-metal centers are directly coordinated to highly electronegative oxygen atoms embedded within layered...
