Activating the efficient electron transfer in oxygen evolution reaction (OER) by tuning the oxygen (O) electronic states near the Fermi level is essential to break the linear scaling limitation of OER intermediates. Herein, we construct a series of rare earth (RE) single atoms on MnO2 nanosheets wit...
