Abstract: The rising demands of clean energy owing to a burgeoning global population and deteriorating climate has given rise to new avenues of research in electrocatalysis focusing on extraction and storage of energy through electrochemical reactions. In contrast to heterogeneous catalysts, electrochemical catalysts often need to withstand harsh reaction environments with respect to electrolyte pH and applied overpotentials. The stability requirements constrain the breadth of applicable materials, limiting the viable catalysts to those composed of more ...
