Super‐Coordinated Nickel N 4 Ni 1 O 2 Site Single‐Atom Catalyst for Selective H 2 O 2 Electrosynthesis at High Current Densities
Electrochemical production of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) from O 2 on single‐atom catalysts has attracted great attention, yet the quest for robust catalysts is driven by achieving >90 % Faradaic efficiency (FE) under industrial‐relevant current densities (>100 mA cm −2 ). Herein we synthesiz...

on single‐atom catalysts has attracted great attention, yet the quest for robust catalysts is driven by achieving >90 % Faradaic efficiency (FE) under industrial‐relevant current densities (>100 mA cm

). Herein we synthesize a catalyst that contains single nickel site coordinated by four nitrogen and two oxygen atoms (i.e., N

) via involving carboxyl functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes as a substrate to provide extra O coordination to the regular NiN

site. It has a cathodic energy efficiency of approximately 82 % and a H
