Abstract
The rational design of metal-organic framework (MOF)-based electrocatalysts plays a key role in achieving high-efficiency oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, a synergetic morphology and electronic structure engineering strategy are proposed to design a Co-MOF nanoflower grown on carbon paper via rare-earth cerium doping (CoCe-MOF/CP). Compared with Co-MOF/CP, the developed CoCe-MOF/CP exhibited superior OER performance with a low overpotential of 267 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and outstanding long-term stability over 100 h. Theoretical calculations show that the unique 4f valence electron structure of Ce induced charge redistribution of the Co-MOF surface through the strong Co 3d-O 2p-Ce 4f orbital electronic coupling below the Fermi level. Ce-doped plays a key role in the engineering of the electronic states of the Co sites to endow them with the optimal free energy landscape for enhanced OER catalytic activity. This work provides new insights into comprehending the RE-enhanced mechanism of electrocatalysis and provides an effective strategy for the design of MOF-based electrocatalysts.

Abstract
It is pivotal to develop an economical, effective, and stable catalyst to promote the oxygen/hydrogen evolution reaction (OER/HER) throughout pH electrolytes, as the demand for hydrogen energy will increase greatly with the future development. Herein, a series of Ir-Cu nanoparticle composite carbon (IrxCuy/C) catalysts are successfully synthesized using ethylene glycol reduction. In addition, the structure, morphology and composition of the electrocatalysts were systematically characterized, and the OER/HER performance of the catalysts was also tested under different pH conditions. According to experimental findings, amorphous Ir3Cu/C has superior competent performance to catalyze oxygen (O2) production in alkaline and acidic environments. The comparatively low overpotentials required are 222 mV and 304 mV, respectively, while generating a current density of 10 mA cm-2. The reduced amount of precious metal and the further improvement in activity and durability make Ir3Cu/C an excellent noble metal-based electrocatalyst. Meanwhile, IrCu/C has significant electrocatalytic performance for the HER in acidic media.

Abstract
The preparation of electroactive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for applications of supercapacitors and batteries has received much attention and remarkable progress during the past few years. MOF-based materials including pristine MOFs, hybrid MOFs or MOF composites, and MOF derivatives are well designed by a combination of organic linkers (e.g., carboxylic acids, conjugated aromatic phenols/thiols, conjugated aromatic amines, and N-heterocyclic donors) and metal salts to construct predictable structures with appropriate properties. This review will focus on construction strategies of pristine MOFs and hybrid MOFs as anodes, cathodes, separators, and electrolytes in supercapacitors and batteries. Descriptions and discussions follow categories of electrochemical double-layer capacitors (EDLCs), pseudocapacitors (PSCs), and hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs) for supercapacitors. In contrast, Li-ion batteries (LIBs), Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs), Lithium-oxygen batteries (LOBs), Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), Sodium-sulfur batteries (SSBs), Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs), Zinc-air batteries (ZABs), Aluminum-sulfur batteries (ASBs), and others (e.g., LiSe, NiZn, H+ , alkaline, organic, and redox flow batteries) are categorized for batteries.

Abstract
Electrochemical energy storage devices with stable performance, high power output, and energy density are urgently needed to meet the global energy demand. Among the different electrochemical energy storage devices, batteries have become the most promising energy technologies and ranked as a highly investigated research subject. Recently, metal-air batteries especially Zn-air batteries (ZABs) have attracted enormous scientific interest in the electrochemical community due to their ease of operation, sustainability, environmental friendliness, and high efficiency. The oxygen electrocatalytic reactions [oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER)] are the two fundamental reactions for the development of ZABs. Noble metal-based electrocatalysts are widely considered as the benchmark for oxygen electrocatalysis, but their practical application in rechargeable ZAB is hindered due to several shortcomings. Thus, to replace noble metal-based catalysts, a wide range of transition-metal-based materials and heteroatom-doped metal-free carbon materials has been extensively investigated as oxygen electrocatalysts for ZABs. Recently, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with unique structural flexibility and uniformly dispersed active sites have become attractive precursors for the synthesis of a large variety of advanced functional materials. Herein, we summarize the recent progress of MOF-derived oxygen electrocatalysts (MOF-derived carbon nanomaterials, MOF-derived alloys/nanoparticles, and MOF-derived single-atom electrocatalysts) for ZABs. Specifically, we highlight MOF-derived single-atom electrocatalysts owing to the wide exploration of these emerging materials in electrocatalysis. The influence of the active sites, structural/compositional design, and porosity of MOF-derived advanced materials on the oxygen electrocatalytic performances is also discussed. Finally, the existing challenges and prospects of MOF-derived electrocatalysts in ZABs are briefly highlighted.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) composites are considered to be one of the most vital energy storage materials due to their advantages of high porousness, multifunction, various structures and controllable chemical compositions, which provide a great possibility to find suitable electrode materials for batteries and supercapacitors. However, MOF composites are still in the face of various challenges and difficulties that hinder their practical application. In this review, we introduce and summarize the applications of MOF composites in batteries, covering metal-ion batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries, lithium-oxygen batteries and zinc-air batteries, as well as supercapacitors. In addition, the application challenges of MOF composites in batteries and supercapacitors are also summarized. Finally, the basic ideas and directions for further development of these two types of electrochemical energy storage devices are proposed.

Abstract
The development of multicomponent materials is the most efficient and successful way for creating advanced multifunctional catalysts. Herein, the bimetal FeCo nanoarrays enclosed N-CNTs have a high surface on carbon cloth support, which promotes efficient electron transport and prevents nanoparticle aggregation. Taking advantage of the high-level use of active material and fast charge transfer, the developed electrocatalyst exhibits excellent multifunctional electrocatalyst such as oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The N-CNTs@MOF FeCo nanoarrays @CC exhibit higher activity than reference catalysts including MOF FeCo nanoarrays@CC, FeCo nanoarrays@CC, and CC. Interestingly, the synthesized multifunctional catalyst, which serves as the air electrode in zinc-air batteries with liquid electrolytes as well as solid-state gel electrolytes possesses outstanding charging-discharge performance and long service life. This study provides enormous potential for the real implementation of portable, even wearable, and efficient rechargeable batteries in the future.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is the vital process at the cathode of next-generation electrochemical storage and conversion technologies, such as metal-air batteries and fuel cells. Single-metal-atom and nitrogen co-doped carbonaceous electrocatalysts (M-N-C) have emerged as attractive alternatives to noble-metal platinum for catalyzing the kinetically sluggish ORR due to their high electrical conductivity, large surface area, and structural tunability at the atomic level, however, their application is limited by the low intrinsic activity of the metal-nitrogen coordination sites (M-N x ) and inferior site density. In this Perspective, we summarize the recent progress and milestones relating to the active site engineering of single atom carbonous electrocatalysts for enhancing the ORR activity. Particular emphasis is placed on the emerging strategies for regulating the electronic structure of the single metal site and populating the site density. In addition, challenges and perspectives are provided regarding the future development of single atom carbonous electrocatalysts for the ORR and their utilization in practical use.

Herein, an efficient bifunctional oxygen electrocatalyst of ultrathin Co(OH)2 nanosheets supported on nitrogen-doped carbon nanoflake arrays (named as Co(OH)2 @NC), is reported, which yields excellent bifunctional activity, i.e., a low overpotential of 285 mV to reach 10 mA cm-2 for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), a high half-wave potential (0.83 V) for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), and a low potential gap (ΔE) of 0.69 V. The excellent bifunctional catalytic performance can be ascribed to the concerted efforts of cobalt hydroxide toward OER and nitrogen-doped carbon for ORR. The Co(OH)2 @NC nanoflake arrays is further used as binder-free air cathodes for rechargeable Zn-air batteries, exhibiting a high specific capacity of 798.3 mAh gZn -1 , improved stability (a working life of >70 h at 5 mA cm-2 ), as well as a reduced long-term charging voltage, which outperforms the counterparts of NC nanoflake arrays and Pt/C-based air cathodes. One step further, the Co(OH)2 @NC nanoflake arrays on carbon cloth are directly used as binder-free air cathodes for flexible, solid-state ZABs, showing excellent performance under deformation as well.

Abstract
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) plays a determining role in electrochemical energy conversion devices, but challenges remain due to the lack of effective low-cost electrocatalysts and insufficient understanding about sluggish reaction kinetics. Distinguish from complex nano-structuring, this work focuses on the spin-related charge transfer and orbital interaction between catalysts and intermediates to accelerate catalytic reaction kinetics. Herein, we propose a simple magnetic-stimulation approach to rearrange spin electron occupation in noble-metal-free metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with a feature of thermal-differentiated superlattice, in which the localized magnetic heating in periodic spatial distribution makes the spin flip occur at particular active sites, demonstrating a spin-dependent reaction pathway. As a result, the spin-rearranged Co0.8Mn0.2 MOF displays mass activities of 3514.7 A gmetal−1 with an overpotential of ~0.27 V, which is 21.1 times that of pristine MOF. Our findings provide a new paradigm for designing spin electrocatalysis and steering reaction kinetics. The oxygen evolution reaction in magnetic catalysts is related with their spin configuration. Here, the authors propose a magnetic-stimulation method to rearrange spin electron occupation in thermal-differentiated superlattices.

Abstract
The preparation of highly efficient, stable, and low-cost electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is still a challenge for the development of new energy systems. In this work, a NiCo bimetal loaded on porous carbon (NiCo-C/NF) grown on nickel foam (NF) was obtained via the pyrolysis of a NiCo bimetal MOF (NiCo-MOF/NF) under a nitrogen atmosphere at 500 °C. Compared with NiCo-MOF/NF, NiCo-C/NF had a larger specific surface and uniform mesoporous structure. As an electrocatalyst in the OER, this new type of electrode operated with better stability in an alkaline solution (1.0 mol L−1 KOH), the overpotential when the current density reached 10 mA cm−2 was only 260 mV, and the electrode also exhibited long-term durability in a stability test for 10 h without significant changes. The excellent activity and stability toward the OER can be attributed to the synergistic effect of the NiCo bimetal and the abundant active sites exposed after the carbonization of NiCo-MOF, which compensated for the defect of the insufficient conductivity of the material and promoted the evolution of oxygen in the catalytic process. The preparation of highly efficient, stable, and low-cost electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is still a challenge for the development of new energy systems.![]()

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks/zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (MOFs/ZIFs) and their post-synthesis modified nanostructures, such as oxides, hydroxides, and carbons have generated significant interest for electrocatalytic reactions. In this work, a high and durable oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance directly from bimetallic Zn100-x Cox -ZIF samples is reported, without carrying out high-temperature calcination and/or carbonization. ZIFs can be reproducibly and readily synthesized in large scale at ambient conditions. The bimetallic ZIFs show a systematic and gradually improved OER activity with increasing cobalt concentration. A further increase in OER activity is evidenced in ZIF-67 polyhedrons with controlled particle size of <200 nm among samples of different sizes between 50 nm and 2 μm. Building on this, a significantly enhanced, >50 %, OER activity is obtained with ZIF-67/carbon black, which shows a low overpotential of approximately 320 mV in 1.0 m KOH electrolyte. Such activity is comparable to or better than numerous MOF/ZIF-derived electrocatalysts. The optimized ZIF-67 sample also exhibits increased activity and durability over 24 h, which is attributed to an in situ developed active cobalt oxide/oxyhydroxide related nanophase.

Abstract
The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is central in carbon-neutral energy devices. While platinum group materials have shown high activities for ORR, their practical uses are hampered by concerns over deactivation, slow kinetics, exorbitant cost, and scarce nature reserve. The low cost yet high tunability of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) provide a unique platform for tailoring their characteristic properties as new electrocatalysts. Herein, we report a new concept of design and present stable Zr-chain-based MOFs as efficient electrocatalysts for ORR. The strategy is based on using Zr-chains to promote high chemical and redox stability and, more importantly, tailor the immobilization and packing of redox active-sites at a density that is ideal to improve the reaction kinetics. The obtained new electrocatalyst, PCN-226, thereby shows high ORR activity. We further demonstrate PCN-226 as a promising electrode material for practical applications in rechargeable Zn-air batteries, with a high peak power density of 133 mW cm-2. Being one of the very few electrocatalytic MOFs for ORR, this work provides a new concept by designing chain-based structures to enrich the diversity of efficient electrocatalysts and MOFs.

Abstract
Flexible solid-state Zn-air batteries have been rapidly developed benefiting from the uprising demand for wearable electronic devices, wherein the air electrode integrated with efficient bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts plays an important role to achieve high performance. Binder-free self-supported bifunctional catalysts can provide large active surface area, fast electron transport path, easy ion diffusion, and excellent structural stability and flexibility, thus acting as promising flexible air cathodes. In this review, recent advances on the application of nanoarrayed electrocatalysts as air cathodes in flexible Zn-air batteries are reviewed. Especially, various types of bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts, including carbonaceous material arrays, transition metal compound arrays, transition metal/carbon arrays, transition metal compound/carbon arrays, and other hybrid arrays, are discussed. The applications of flexible Zn-air batteries with two configurations (i.e., planar stacks and cable fibers) are also introduced. Finally, perspectives on the optimization of arrayed air cathodes for future development to achieve high-performance flexible Zn-air batteries are shared.

Abstract
Metal-free carbon materials are regarded as a promising catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), owing to their high activity in an alkaline environment. In this paper, using industrial carbon black-supported Co3O4 hybrid as a raw material, typical hollow carbon nanoparticles were synthesized by solid-phase annealing the hybrid at an elevated temperature, followed by HCl etching to remove the cobalt oxide. The specific surface area of the hollow carbon is significantly increased and the total nitrogen content of the carbon is 4.13 at%, providing massive active sites for ORR. In alkaline solution, compared with the commercial Pt/C, the nitrogen-doped hollow carbon nanoparticles display a superior ORR electrocatalytic activity with a half-wave potential of 0.88 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode. Furthermore, the catalyst exhibits an excellent stability and high discharge power density in the Zn-air battery. This study provides a simple and feasible strategy of solid-phase synthesis for the production of high performance metal-free hollow carbon materials.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of distinctive porous crystalline materials constructed by metal ions/clusters and organic linkers. Owing to their structural diversity, functional adjustability, and high surface area, different types of MOF-based single metal sites are well exploited, including coordinately unsaturated metal sites from metal nodes and metallolinkers, as well as active metal species immobilized to MOFs. Furthermore, controllable thermal transformation of MOFs can upgrade them to nanomaterials functionalized with active single-atom catalysts (SACs). These unique features of MOFs and their derivatives enable them to serve as a highly versatile platform for catalysis, which has actually been becoming a rapidly developing interdisciplinary research area. In this review, we overview the recent developments of catalysis at single metal sites in MOF-based materials with emphasis on their structures and applications for thermocatalysis, electrocatalysis, and photocatalysis. We also compare the results and summarize the major insights gained from the works in this review, providing the challenges and prospects in this emerging field.

Abstract
Implementing sustainable energy conversion and storage technologies is highly reliant on crucial oxygen electrocatalysis, such as the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, the pursuit of low cost, energetic efficient and robust bifunctional catalysts for OER and ORR remains a great challenge. Herein, the novel Na-ion-deficient Na2-x CoP2 O7 catalysts are proposed to efficiently electrocatalyze OER and ORR in alkaline solution. The engineering of Na-ion deficiency can tune the electronic structure of Co, and thus tailor the intrinsically electrocatalytic performance. Among the sodium cobalt phosphate catalysts, the Na1.95 CoP2 O7 (NCPO5) catalyst exhibits the lowest ΔE (EJ10,OER -EJ-1,ORR ) of only 0.86 V, which favorably outperforms most of the reported non-noble metal catalysts. Moreover, the Na-ion deficiency can stabilize the phase structure and morphology of NCPO5 during the OER and ORR processes. This study highlights the Na-ion deficient Na2-x CoP2 O7 as a promising class of low-cost, highly active and robust bifunctional catalysts for OER and ORR.
