Abstract

. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations further revealed that the co-doping of Ru and B synergistically reduces the free-energy barrier for the *O-to-*OOH step, improving the reaction kinetics. This work provides a novel strategy for designing high-performance cobalt-based electrocatalysts through multi-element synergy.
