Abstract

In recent years, researchers have prepared and reported many advanced monatomic electrocatalysts with good activity, selectivity, and stability through defect anchoring, space confinement, and coordination design strategies. However, due to its superior catalytic performance and potential cost advantages, people should accelerate the industrial application research of monatomic catalysis, develop preparation technologies with large-scale application prospects and promote the wide application of monatomic catalysis in various fields. This review article is about the recent advancements of single-atom catalysts for electro-catalysis under the framework of material design, performance enhancement and diverse applications. Specifically, we first classify the state-of-the-art synthesis strategies of single-atom catalysts. Then, a brief outline of their electrocatalytic properties and applications is given. We eventually find that monatomic catalysts could help improve the efficiency of reactions in many aspects and reduce their cost.
