Designing atomically dispersed metal catalysts for the nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) is an effective approach to achieve better energy conversion efficiencies.
We demonstrate that bismuth exhibits no measurable electrocatalytic activity for the nitrogen reduction reaction to ammonia in aqueous electrolyte solutions, contrary to several recent reports on the highly impressive rates of Bi-catalysed electrosynthesis of NH<sub>3</sub> from N<sub>2</sub>.
The efficient activation of the adsorbed N2 is the initial and crucial step in the electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) but remains a long-standing challenge. Attaching long-distance heterometal M and...
