Spin Manipulation of Heterogeneous Molecular Electrocatalysts by an Integrated Magnetic Field for Efficient Oxygen Redox Reactions (Adv. Mater. 45/2024)

Manipulating Single Atom Catalyst Spin State In article number 2408461, Hao Li, Yuan Chen, Li Wei, and co-workers utilize polymer-protected permanent nanomagnets to manipulate the spin state of a single atom catalyst. Without modifying atomic structure, significantly improved oxygen redox reaction performance is observed. This approach is applicable to other magnetic catalysts, offering a new strategy to investigate the spin-dependent catalytic performance.
