Nature Catalysis, Published online: 26 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41929-024-01184-7Aqueous zinc-ion batteries are attractive due to their low cost, environmental friendliness, and exceptional performance, but the latter remains poorly understood. Now, a fast catalytic step involved in oxygen redox catalysis is shown to contribute to capacity at a high...
Nature Catalysis, Published online: 26 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41929-024-01188-3There is no doubt that identifying active sites at the atomic scale for designing optimal catalysts is a great challenge. Now, by combining computational and experimental results, an advanced methodology is proposed for understanding the structure–activity relationship at...

Nature Catalysis, Published online: 26 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41929-024-01185-6Unravelling the key parameters that govern the activity of oxygen evolution reaction catalysts is an essential step towards efficient production of green hydrogen. Now, the repulsion between adsorbates on the electrocatalyst surface has been identified as a powerful promoter...
Nature Catalysis, Published online: 22 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41929-024-01197-2The non-innocence of electrolyte cations in the activity of CO2 reduction has been widely acknowledged, although these complex effects are not fully understood. Here, opposite to the trend observed with Cu and Ag surfaces, smaller alkali cations greatly enhance CO2-to-methanol...
