Abstract

Abstract : In article number 2003000, Yang Hou, Guoliang Chai, Xinliang Feng, and co‐workers present an electrochemical activation approach to synthesize oxygen‐functionalized graphene nanosheets arrays. The COOH species is confirmed as the active site for the first time, especially COOH‐zig‐corner mixed with zigzag and armchair edges, which leads to outstanding oxygen evolution reaction performance in acid.
