Dopants fixation of Ruthenium for boosting acidic oxygen evolution stability and activity

There is an increasing interest in understanding how defect chemistry can alter material reactivity. Here, authors tune the electronic structure of RuO2 by introducing W and Er dopants that boost acidic oxygen evolution performances by limiting oxygen vacancy formation during catalysis.
