Synergistic Fe–Ni dual-atom sites on hollow carbon enabling high-performance rechargeable zinc–air batteries

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: combination. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations elucidate that the Fe-Ni dual sites synergistically lower the adsorption energy of the critical *OOH intermediate, thereby reducing the overall energy barriers for both ORR and OER pathways. This density difference-assisted method also works for other MOFs like UiO-66 and HKUST-1, enabling diverse high-performance carbon-supported catalysts.
