Metal–Organic‐Framework‐Derived Hybrid Carbon Nanocages as a Bifunctional Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction and Evolution

Abstract
The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are cornerstone reactions for many renewable energy technologies. Developing cheap yet durable substitutes of precious‐metal catalysts, especially the bifunctional electrocatalysts with high activity for both ORR and OER reactions and their streamlined coupling process, are highly desirable to reduce the processing cost and complexity of renewable energy systems. Here, a facile strategy is reported for synthesizing double‐shelled hybrid nanocages with outer shells of Co‐N‐doped graphitic carbon (Co‐NGC) and inner shells of N‐doped microporous carbon (NC) by templating against core–shell metal–organic frameworks. The double‐shelled…
