Deskripsi
Understanding reaction intermediates provides a foundation for active electrocatalysts’ design, but it remains elusive for heterogeneous electrocatalysts. Here, the authors report the spectroscopic characterization of low-spin Mn(IV)-oxo as the active intermediates during electrochemical water oxidation.
