Abstract
) of the carbon matrix, which increased the contact area with oxygen-containing species, but also the encapsulation effect of the highly graphitized N-doped carbon layer and the high content of pyridine-N species also further improved the conductivity of selenide composites. This work has introduced N-doped bimetallic selenides as an ideal candidate for bifunctional electrocatalysts.
