Abstract

A highly conductive, ultralight, neat and versatile nitrogen-doped GNRs aerogel has been fabricated by a new hydrothermal method for the first time. The newly developed aerogel shows a very promising performance when used as a novel ORR catalyst in both alkaline and acidic solutions.

Keywords: aerogels; catalysts; graphene; nanoribbons; nitrogen-doped; oxygen reduction reaction.
