Abstract

Abstract : In article number 1901313, Ziqi Tian, Liang Chen and co‐workers report an ultra‐fine RuO2 catalyst, which is prepared via acid etching treatment of Zn‐doped RuO2 supported on carbon cloth. The leaching of Zn dopant leads to the formation of defects, resulting in more exposed active sites and improved intrinsic activity. The as‐prepared material exhibits a low overpotential of 179 mV for water oxidation in acidic media.
