Abstract
One common iridium(III) complex was employed to facilely prepare ultrafine Ir nanoclusters embedded in porous N-doped carbon, which displayed significant bifunctional activity for both hydrogen evolution and hydrazine oxidation under alkaline conditions, enabling energy-efficient hydrogen production.
