Fe–N–C catalysts are emerging as promising alternatives to Pt-based catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), while they still suffer from sluggish reaction kinetics due to the discontented binding affinity between the Fe-N4 sites and oxygen-containing intermediates, and unsatisfactory stab...
