Electronic structure is essential to understanding the catalytic mechanism of metal single-atom catalysts (SACs), especially under electrochemical conditions. This study delves into nuanced modulation "frontier orbitals" in SACs on nitrogen-doped graphene (N-C) substrates by potentials. We observe shifts Fermi level and changes d-orbital occupation with alterations potentials, emphasizing a synergy between discretized atomic orbitals metals continuous bands N-C based environment. Using O2 CO2 as model adsorbates, we highlight direct consequences these adsorption energies, unveiling an intriguing inversion energies Co/N-C SAC negative Such insights are attributed role dxz dz2 orbitals, pivotal for stabilizing π* O2.
