The electrochemical nitrogen oxidation reaction (NOR) presents a sustainable pathway for nitrate synthesis under mild conditions; however, the process is hindered by inadequate adsorption and activation of N2 on electrocatalysts. In this study, we utilized Co3O4 as model catalyst engineered lattice distortions introducing oxygen vacancies, which expanded eg band active sites to enhance activation. modified achieved Faradaic efficiency 10.68% yield 58.80 μg·h-1·mgcat-1. Comprehensive experimental density functional theory (DFT) analyses demonstrated that these modifications resulted in shortened Co-N bond length an elongated N≡N bond, leading improved p-d hybridization between Co sites. Moreover, enhancements catalytic performance were also attributed electron transfer properties stemming from altered structure Co3O4. This work provides innovative design principles catalysts aimed at facilitating complex electrocatalytic reactions with multiple kinetics.

Abstract The underutilization of active sites limits the performance enhancement 2D transition metal boride (MBene) in electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR). Herein, a highly efficient NRR electrocatalyst with S atoms bridging Fe and Mo on surface MBene is successfully constructed by using an site electron optimization strategy, which increases charge density around enhances activation ability catalyst to N 2 molecules. It noteworthy that FeS ‐MBene demonstrates low intrinsic potential for (−0.2 V vs RHE). more favorable adsorption comparison hydrogen atoms, thereby it can effectively inhibit evolution (HER). Under −0.2 versus RHE, ammonia yield rate 37.13 ± 1.31 µg h −1 mg , FE 55.97 2.63%. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate serves as . formation heterostructure transfer, resulting becoming electron‐rich state favor subsequent hydrogenation steps. This work offers significant insights into design utilization MBene‐based catalysts NRR.
