Magnetic‐Field‐Enabled Ultrafast Quench Synthesis of Single‐Atom Catalysts for Efficient Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We report a universal magnetic‐field‐enabled quench strategy for the ultrafast synthesis of diverse single‐atom catalysts within seconds. This simple and low‐cost method yields highly active catalysts with excellent performance in anion exchange membrane water electrolysis. ABSTRACT Single‐atom catalysts (SACs) play a critical role in diverse catalytic
