Lai, LeoAbstract
This thesis presents a series of strategies to optimize nitrogen-doped carbon (N-C) catalysts for electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), either for direct usage as electrode material in devices such as zinc air battery (ZAB) or being utilized as the substrate to construct M-N-C catalysts designed for devices operate under acidic environment such as proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs).This thesis presents a series of strategies to optimize nitrogen-doped carbon (N-C) catalysts for electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), either for direct usage as electrode material in devices such as zinc air battery (ZAB) or being utilized as the substrate to construct M-N-C catalysts designed for devices operate under acidic environment such as proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs).
