Abstract
Exploring inexpensive and high-performance nonprecious metal catalysts (NPMCs) to replace the rare and expensive Pt-based catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is crucial for future low-temperature fuel cell devices. Herein, we developed a new type of highly efficient 3D porous Fe/N/C electrocatalyst through a simple pyrolysis approach. Our systematic study revealed that the pyrolysis temperature, the surface area, and the Fe content in the catalysts largely affect the ORR performance of the Fe/N/C catalysts, and the optimized parameters have been identified. The optimized Fe/N/C catalyst, with an interconnected hollow and open structure, exhibits one of the highest ORR activity, stability and selectivity in both alkaline and acidic conditions. In 0.1 M KOH, compared to the commercial Pt/C catalyst, the 3D porous Fe/N/C catalyst exhibits ∼6 times better activity (e.g., 1.91 mA cm-2 for Fe/N/C vs 0.32 mA cm-2 for Pt/C, at 0.9 V) and excellent stability (e.g., no any decay for Fe/N/C vs 35 mV negative half-wave potential shift for Pt/C, after 10000 cycles test). In 0.5 M H2SO4, this catalyst also exhibits comparable activity and better stability comparing to Pt/C catalyst. More importantly, in both alkaline and acidic media (RRDE environment), the as-synthesized Fe/N/C catalyst shows much better stability and methanol tolerance than those of the state-of-the-art commercial Pt/C catalyst. All these make the 3D porous Fe/N/C nanostructure an excellent candidate for non-precious-metal ORR catalyst in metal-air batteries and fuel cells.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are ideal precursors/ templates for porous carbons with homogeneous doping of active components for energy storage and conversion applications. Herein, metalloporphyrinic MOFs, PCN-224-FeCo, with adjustable molar ratio of FeII /CoII alternatively residing inside the porphyrin center, were employed as precursors to afford FeCo-N-doped porous carbon (denoted as FeCo-NPC) by pyrolysis. Thanks to the hollow porous structure, the synergetic effect between highly dispersed FeNx and CoNx active sites accompanied with a high degree of graphitization, the optimized FeCo2 -NPC-900 obtained by pyrolysis at 900 °C exhibits more positive half-wave potential, higher diffusion-limited current density, and better stability than the state-of-the-art Pt/C, under both alkaline and acidic media. More importantly, the current synthetic approach based on MOFs offers a rational strategy to structure- and composition-controlled porous carbons for efficient electrocatalysis.

Abstract
Fe-N-C series catalysts are always attractive for their high catalytic activity towards the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, they usually consist of various components such as iron nitrides, metallic iron, iron carbides, N-doped carbon and Fe-N4 moieties, leading to controversial contributions of these components to the catalysis of the ORR, especially iron nitrides. In this work, to investigate the function of iron nitrides, FexN nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in mesoporous N-doped carbon without Fe-N4 moieties are designed and constructed by a simple histidine-assisted method. Herein, the use of histidine can increase the N and Fe contents in the product. The obtained catalyst exhibits excellent ORR catalytic activity which is very close to that of the commercial Pt/C catalyst in alkaline electrolytes. Combining the catalytic activity, structural characterization (especially from Mössbauer spectroscopy), and the results of DFT calculations for adsorption energies of oxygen on the main surfaces of Fe2N including ε-Fe2N and ζ-Fe2N, it can be deduced that Fe2N NPs as active species make a contribution to the ORR catalysis, of which ε-FexN (x ≤ 2.1) is more active than ζ-Fe2N. In addition, we find that there exists an obvious synergistic effect between Fe2N NPs and N-doped carbon, leading to the greatly enhanced ORR catalytic activity.

Abstract
A novel kind of Pt/N-rGO hybrid possessing of low content 5.31 wt.% Pt anchored on the surface of nitrogen doped reduced graphene oxide (N-rGO) evenly was prepared. The Pt has uniformed 2.8 nm diameter and exposed (111) crystal planes; meanwhile, the N works as the bridge between Pt and rGO with the Pt-N and N-C chemical bonds in Pt/N-rGO. The Pt/N-rGO material has a very high electrocatalytic activity in oxygen reduction reaction with the mass catalytic activity more than 1.5 times of the commercial Pt/C due to the synergistic catalytic effect of both N-doped carbon matrix and Pt nanoparticles. Moreover, the Pt/N-rGO exhibits an excellent stability with hardly loss (only 0.4%) after accelerated durability tests of 5000 cycles based on the stable Pt-N-C chemical bonds in Pt/N-rGO, which can prevent the detachment, dissolution, migration and aggregation of Pt nanoparticles on the matrix during the long-term cycling.

Abstract
Limited strategies have been established to prepare monodisperse mesoporous carbon nanospheres (MCNs) with tailored pore sizes. In this work, a method is reported to synthesize MCNs by combining polymerization of aniline with co-assembly of colloidal silica nanoparticles. The controlled self-assembly behavior of colloidal silica enables the formation of uniform composite nanospheres and convenient modulation over mesopores. After carbonization and removal of sacrificial templates, the resultant MCNs possess tunable mesopores (7-42 nm) and spherical diameters (90-300 nm), as well as high surface area (785-1117 m(2) g(-1) ), large pore volume (1.46-2.01 cm(3) g(-1) ) and abundant nitrogen moieties (5.54-8.73 at %). When serving as metal-free electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), MCNs with an optimum pore size of 22 nm, compared to those with 7 and 42 nm, exhibit the best ORR performance in alkaline medium.
