Abstract
Abstract High‐entropy materials are poised to revolutionize materials science and industrial applications due to their design flexibility, peculiar performance, and broad applicability. In this study, we present a proof‐of‐concept high‐entropy engineered nanocarbon (HENC) co‐doped with five nonmetal elements (B, F, P, S, and N), synthesized via in situ polymerization modification of ZIF‐8 followed by pyrolysis. The HENC exhibits outstanding performance as a nonmetal electrocatalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), with activity on par with benchmark Pt/C electrocatalysts and superior cyclic stability. Simulations and all‐site calculations reveal that the synergistic effects of abundant heteroatoms and…
