Reduced graphene oxides with engineered defects enable efficient electrochemical reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia in wide pH range

Electrochemical nitrogen fixation under mild conditions is highly demanded yet remains a grand challenge. Herein we report metal-free electrocatalysis of aqueous N2 reduction to produce NH3 over reduced graphene oxide (DrGO) with tuned defects. The defect sites in DrGO, consisting of unsaturated car...
