Abstract
(Zn-air). By combining experiments and theoretical simulations, we demonstrate that the enhanced catalytic activity of the FePtNC catalyst can be attributed to the electronic modulation effect between adjacent metal sites. Thus, this study presents an efficient strategy for the rational design and optimization of atomically dispersed catalysts.
