Scientists at Rice University and their colleagues in China have fabricated a durable catalyst for high-performance fuel cells by attaching single ruthenium atoms to nitrogen-doped graphene. As the limit in downsizing metal morphology, the concept of single-atom catalysts (SACs) has emerged since it maximizes the exposed atom efficiency.
