Dual-Fullerene-Confined Single Transition Metal Atoms as High-Efficiency Catalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Key Points

• To evaluate the efficiency of dual-fullerene-confined single platinum atoms as catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction.
• Experimental work involving the synthesis of platinum atoms confined within C60 fullerenes.
• Assessment of catalytic activity in water electrolysis for hydrogen production.
• Significantly improved catalytic efficiency observed with platinum confined within C60 structures.
• Enhanced hydrogen production rate compared to unconfined platinum, with measurable activity metrics.
