The sluggish kinetics of the hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) in alkaline conditions continue to pose a significant challenge for the practical implementation of anion-exchange membrane fuel cells. Developing single-atom catalysts can accelerate the pace of new HOR catalyst discovery for highly cos...
