Abstract

We report a heterostructured Cu<sub>3</sub>N@CNT electrocatalyst for application in alkaline fuel cells. The size of well-dispersed Cu<sub>3</sub>N nanoparticles can be precisely controlled by ALD. Superior catalytic oxygen reduction reaction performance was achieved with a mixed two- and four-electron process.
