Self‐Assembled Fe–N‐Doped Carbon Nanotube Aerogels with Single‐Atom Catalyst Feature as High‐Efficiency Oxygen Reduction Electrocatalysts

Abstract

Self-assembled M-N-doped carbon nanotube aerogels with single-atom catalyst feature are for the first time reported through one-step hydrothermal route and subsequent facile annealing treatment. By taking advantage of the porous nanostructures, 1D nanotubes as well as single-atom catalyst feature, the resultant Fe-N-doped carbon nanotube aerogels exhibit excellent oxygen reduction reaction electrocatalytic performance even better than commercial Pt/C in alkaline solution.
