An electrochemical nitric oxide (NO) reduction reaction (NORR) can not only eliminate the harmful pollutant but also offer a green approach for ammonia synthesis under mild conditions. However, the activities and Faradaic efficiencies of present electrocatalysts are still not suitable for commercial...
