Activation of oxygen evolving perovskites for oxygen reduction by functionalization with Fe–Nx/C groups†
Abstract
The incorporation of Fe–Nx/C moieties into perovskites remarkably activates them for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and also leads to notable improvement of their activity towards the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) thus presenting a new route for realizing high performance, low cost bifunctional catalysts for reversible oxygen electrodes.
