Boron-Doped MXenes as Electrocatalysts for Nitrogen Reduction Reaction: A Theoretical Study

Electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) is a promising and sustainable approach for ammonia production. Since boron as an active center possesses electronic structure similar to that of transition metals with d-orbitals (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2019, 141 (7), 2884), it is supposed to be able t...
