a Bader charge and chemical valence of Cu centers for different structures: Cu3N bulk, Cu-N2, Cu-N3, Cu-N4 and CuPc molecule. b Total density of states (DOS) (black) for the CuPc, Cu-N4, Cu-N3 and Cu-N2, and projected DOS of Cu atoms (red) from them. c Total DOS (black) for one O adsorbed CuPc, Cu-N4, Cu-N3 and Cu-N4, and projected DOS of Cu atoms (red) and O atoms (green) from them. d Volcano plot of the relationship between ORR activity and ΔEO for Cu-N2, Cu-N3, Cu-N4, CuPc and N-doped graphene. e Schematic models of W-N3, W-N4 and W-N5, respectively. W (deep green), N (orange), O (red), and C (grey). f LSV curves of W-N3, W-N4, W-N5, CN, and Pt/C catalysts in O2-saturated 0.1 M KOH. (g) Volcano plot of the relationship between the limiting potential (UL) and ΔGOH. h Local density of the states of W and O for *OH absorbed on metallic W, W-N3, W-N4 and W-N5. i Crystal orbital overlap population (COOP) analysis results for *OH absorbed on W-N3, W-N4 and W-N5. a–d Reproduced with permission from Ref.
