Stable iridium dinuclear heterogeneous catalysts supported on metal-oxide substrate for solar water oxidation

Significance While research on single-atom catalysts (SACs) is arguably mature, rare work has been done on atomically dispersed catalyst featuring two atoms. We synthesized Ir dinuclear heterogeneous catalyst in a facile photochemical way. It exhibits outstanding stability and high activity toward water oxidation. The significance of this work can also be appreciated from the catalysis perspective. A grand challenge in heterogeneous catalysis is...
