Abstract
High-performance electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) typically use platinum (Pt), however its high cost is a hindrance to commercial scale up. Here, the authors report a cost-effective, efficient and durable Pt single-atom electrocatalyst for ORR with a Pt utilization of 0.13 gPt kW−1in a fuel cell.
