N2 Electrochemical Reduction: Achieving a Record‐High Yield Rate of 120.9 μgNH3 mgcat.−1 h−1 for N2 Electrochemical Reduction over Ru Single‐Atom Catalysts (Adv. Mater. 40/2018)

Ru single atoms are distributed on nitrogen-doped carbon (Ru SAs/N–C), synthesized for efficient electrochemical reduction of N2 by Rui Si, Jie Zeng, and co-workers, as described in article number 1803498. Ru SAs/N–C exhibits a record-high activity for N2 electrochemical reduction. At −0.2 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode, Ru SAs/N–C achieves a Faradaic efficiency of 29.6% for NH3 production with a yield rate of 120.9 μ g NH 3 mg cat . − 1 h − 1 , which is one order of magnitude higher than the highest value previously reported.
