| Abstract | Hydrogen proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are vital for future vehicle electrification, particularly in heavy-duty and long-range transportation applications, due to their high-energy density and high efficiency. However, the expensive and scarce platinum catalysts hinder the widespread applications of PEMFCs and should be replaced by earth-abundant elements. Atomically dispersed and nitrogen coordinated transition metal sites (e.g., iron, cobalt, and manganese) embedded in carbon ha |
