Efficient N2 electroreduction enabled by linear charge transfer over atomically dispersed W sites

= 0.9889), providing a feasible activity descriptor. Furthermore, electronic property calculations suggest that the NRR activity is rooted in d-2π* coupling, which can be explained by the "donation and back-donation" hypothesis. This work not only designs efficient atomic catalysts for NRR, but also sheds new insights into the role of neighboring single atoms in improving reaction kinetics.
