Problems solved by technology

Among them, the rate-limiting step is electrochemical oxygen generation, the main reason is the four-electron oxidation process, and the high overpotential further limits its application.
The previous electrocatalysts mainly focused on noble metals such as Ru and Ir, and there are few studies on base metals that are abundant in the earth’s crust.
