Abstract

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) include a promising family of electrocatalysts with unique geometric structures. Beyond conventional ones with fully isolated metal sites, an emerging class of catalysts with the adjacent metal single atoms exhibiting intersite metal-metal interactions appear in recent years and can be denoted as correlated SACs (C-SACs). This type of catalysts provides more opportunities to achieve substantial structural modification and performance enhancement toward a wider range of electrocatalytic applications. On the basis of a clear identification of metal-metal interactions, this review critically examines the recent research progress in C-SACs. It shows that the control of metal-metal…
