Undercoordination engineering of chromium single-atom catalyst with optimized d-p hybridization for lithium-sulfur batteries

Caption

Undercoordination engineering in CrN3 modulates the Cr 3d electronic states and activates in-plane orbital hybridization with S 3p orbitals, enabling moderate adsorption, reduced sulfur redox barriers, and superior electrocatalytic and battery performance compared with conventional CrN4.
