The room temperature electrochemical synthesis of N-doped graphene and its electrocatalytic activity for oxygen reduction

Abstract

We report a facile and green electrochemical method using graphene oxide as the precursor to synthesize nitrogen doped graphene at room temperature in ammonia containing aqueous solution. The nitrogen doping content reaches 3.3 at%, and the resultant NG shows excellent activity toward the oxygen reduction reaction.
