On March 10, 2026, a research paper titled "Spatio-Temporal Synchronized Nitrate Electroreduction to Ammonia Catalyzed by Ultrathin MOF Nanosheets" was published in Advanced Functional Materials by Professor Wang Chundong's team. In this study, single-atom Ru was precisely immobilized onto ultrathin cobalt-based metal-organic framework nanosheets. This innovative approach achieved an impressive ammonia Faradaic efficiency of up to 97.4%, along with an ammonia production rate of 882.3 μg h-1cm-2 under neutral conditions.
