Using density functional theory based electronic structure analysis we substantiate that the bonding type of atomic oxygen (epoxide or enolate) and adsorption strength of molecular oxygen play vital roles in determining the overpotential of oxygen reduction reactions (ORR) of n and p doped graphene-based electrocatalysts. The presence of localized pz states influences the electron accepting and donating characteristics of the carbon atoms of the DV (555-777) defective graphene. We probe the origin of dopant-induced enolate and epoxide formation in both pristine and DV graphene based on the occupation of pz orbital of active site after doping. In spite of the slightly higher tendency of DV to adsorb molecular oxygen than pristine graphene, the enhancement in binding strengths of O2 with the introduction of dopants is higher in the pristine case when compared to the DV. The donation and back-donation interaction of dopant with nearby carbon atoms is inspected in detail. We examine the effects of boron and nitrogen co-doping and find that a doping configuration of a boron atom bonded to two nitrogen atoms (B2N) possesses moderate binding with atomic and molecular oxygen, suggesting it to be a better catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction with lowest overpotential among the systems considered. Moreover the possibility of CO poisoning has been tested for all the surfaces. The approach considered in this work is general and can be extended to understand the catalytic activity of other carbon/graphene based systems.
Pristine graphene does not show appreciable potential as an ORR electrocatalyst, hence heteroatom doping is essential to utilize it as a high-performance electrocatalyst. In particular, doping of graphene with boron or nitrogen atoms has received remarkable attention as they enhance the chemical reactivity without distorting the graphene plane.10,11 Theoretical calculations by Boukhvalov et al. have revealed that the energy barriers of each step in N-graphene catalyzed ORR is lower than that on a Pt surface.12 Zhang et al. have studied the activity of N doped graphene and have attributed the high catalytic activity to the high positive spin density and asymmetric atomic charge density introduced by N dopants.13,14 Kong et al. have studied boron doped graphene and demonstrated that the strong electron withdrawing ability of boron dopant facilitates adsorption of oxygen molecules and hence enhances the ORR activity.15 In a recent work by Lazar et al., the electronic properties of B and N doped graphene was correlated with the workfunction (Φ) of the B/N doped surfaces.16 Several studies are also undertaken on B,N co-doped graphitic systems17,18 and the synergistic coupling of B and N dopants resulting in enhanced activity has been identified. But in most studies, the occupation of pz orbital of active sites has been overlooked. A systematic study on the pz orbital occupation is important as this will also provide details on the charge transfer to/from the dopant to the neighboring active site in graphene based materials.19,20 Structural defects are yet another parameter, which affects the electronic properties of graphene and consequently its catalytic activity. There is experimental and theoretical evidence that divacancy (DV) defects are thermodynamically favorable and can promote the adsorption of small molecules and clusters onto the graphene surface.21,22 Among the various possible configurations of DV defects such as 555-777 (three pentagons and three heptagons), 5-8-5 (two pentagons and one octagon), 5555-6-7777 (four pentagons, one hexagon and four heptagons), the 555-777 DV defect configuration is found to be the most stable.23
It has been observed that the binding affinity of O atom on the catalytic surface can be used as a measure of ORR activity in both metal-based24 and graphene-based5 catalysts. During ORR, the potential-limiting step that determines the overpotential may either be proton/electron transfer to adsorbed O2 or to adsorbed O or OH. In N doped graphene, the removal of adsorbed O is found to be the potential-limiting step.25 This suggests that the intermediate O atom plays a decisive role in ORR activity. Unlike in metals, where the O atom prefers atop, fcc or hcp sites, the adsorbed O atom forms epoxy groups on a pristine graphene surface.26 Interestingly, when the pristine graphene surface is modified by external dopants, dopant induced charge redistribution results in different adsorption behaviors for the O atom. The O atom may prefer to retain its epoxy type bonding or revert to an atop (henceforth named as enolate) type bonding, which may be unlikely to form on a pristine surface.
In this study, employing nitrogen and boron atom/s as dopants, we disclose the role of epoxy and enolate configuration on the overpotential and ORR activity. Our results reveal that the preferred configuration of oxygen atom adsorption onto the graphene sheet varies remarkably depending on whether the dopant is n-type or p-type. It has been observed that the enolate configuration on N doped graphene is highly stable and may contribute to catalyst poisoning. Throughout this work, we designate the notation 2N for two N atoms doping, 2B for two boron atoms doping, B2N for one boron and two nitrogen atoms doping and similar notation for all other cases of doping. The origin of adsorption behavior of oxygen atom on DV defect graphene has been rationalized based on presence of localized pz states in the defective region and the occupation of pz orbital of active site after doping. The synergetic effect of heteroatom doping and 555-777 DV defect on the activity of graphene as electrocatalyst is discussed in detail in a different perspective. We also demonstrate that co-doping of graphene surface with B and N can significantly alter the type of O-bonding and we establish that the B2N surface has significant potential as an ORR electrocatalyst.
Interestingly, upon doping the graphene sheet with nitrogen and/or boron, the bonding type of O atom is different. Since the addition of a single dopant may not significantly enhance the reactivity of graphene toward ORR,38 we have considered a minimum of two-atom doping to investigate the dopant-dependent O-atom bonding behavior. Two nitrogen atoms (2N) or boron atoms (2B) were placed in the meta position. The constrained potential energy curves for an O atom approaching the 2N doped graphene is shown in Fig. 2b. The N dopant carries a negative charge, and the incoming oxygen atom interacts with the C atom adjacent to the N dopant, in an enolate-type bonding. The nitrogen atom has five valence electrons, out of which three are involved in forming σ bonds with neighboring in-plane carbon atoms. The remaining two electrons of nitrogen occupy the pz orbital. In order to maintain graphene's aromaticity, N atom donates electron from its pz orbital to the graphene lattice (back-donation interaction). The neighbouring carbon atom in particular acquires electrons from N and its pz orbital becomes more than half-filled. At the same time, because of the electronegativity difference between C and N, the nitrogen atom is negatively charged while the central carbon atom acquires a positive charge (donation interaction).19,39 Hence, although Bader charge analysis indicates that the net charge on N atom is −1.22e and that on the central carbon atom is +0.73e, there is a transfer of pz electrons from N atom to the neighbouring C atom which is clearly visible from the pz projected band structure, shown in Fig. S3.† Comparison of pz projected band structures of a carbon atom far from the dopant (Fig. S3a†) the central C atom (Fig. S3b†) clearly indicates that after doping, the contribution from the central C atom to the occupied band (near the Fermi level) is higher, suggesting that the pz orbital occupancy of central C atom is higher than a far carbon atom. An approaching oxygen atom does not bind to nitrogen because of the electrostatic repulsive force between its lone pair and negatively charged N atoms.39 Since the pz orbital of carbon atom is now more than half-filled, the O atom solely shares its bonding electrons with the carbon atom resulting in a stronger enolate-type C–O bond. The strongest binding site in this case is the central carbon atom between the nitrogen dopants with Ead = −4.36/−4.39 eV,37 as obtained from the PE curve. The enolate-type bonding behavior is observed in the other nearest carbon atoms surrounding the nitrogen atoms also, albeit with a smaller binding energy (Ead = −3.64/−3.74 eV).37 But a point to be noted is that when an oxygen atom is preadsorbed at central C atom, it prevents any other oxygen atoms to adsorb in enolate form and only epoxide-type binding of the second oxygen atom is possible.
In the case of boron doped graphene, 2B, the oxygen atom prefers to adsorb in an epoxide configuration, bridging a boron atom and a carbon atom. The potential energy curve is shown in Fig. 2c, indicating an adsorption energy of −3.60/−3.67 eV.37 These results are consistent with previous results by Ferrighi et al., who observed a bridge-type configuration of O atom on boron doped graphene using PBE functional.40 In contrast to the nitrogen atom, the boron atom acts as an acceptor, withdrawing pz electrons from the surrounding carbon atoms (via back donation interaction). This feature is evident from the pz-projected band structure of the central carbon atom between boron atoms, shown in Fig. S4b.† The contribution from the central carbon atom to the unoccupied pz is higher, implying that it has lost its pz electrons to the boron atoms. The pz orbital of boron, which was initially empty (the three valence electrons of boron are involved in in-plane sp2 bonding and pz is initially vacant) becomes partially occupied and so an approaching oxygen atom shares its two bonding electrons with B and C atoms, resulting in an epoxide type B–O–C configuration. The potential energy curve for O adsorption on co-doped B2N surface is shown in Fig. 2d. The preferred site for oxygen atom adsorption is the bridge site between the boron atom and a neighboring carbon atom with an adsorption energy of −3.24/−3.32 eV. The adsorption of atomic oxygen on B3N-P is again an enolate and is rather stronger binding. From now the adsorption energies of different systems are compared based on the VASP results for simplicity (given in Table 1).

The interaction of atomic oxygen on undoped DV graphene is remarkably higher than pristine graphene. The adsorption energy is −3.57 eV/−3.64 eV (see Table 1) and the oxygen atom again prefers an epoxide-type bonding bridging atoms C1 and C2. As discussed earlier, atom C2 has filled localized states in the valence band and hence can readily transfer electrons to the O atom. The O atom is oriented slightly toward atom C2 with O–C1 distance being 1.47 Å and O–C2 distance being 1.44 Å. Bader charge analysis further confirms this with the charge on C1 after O adsorption being less positive (+0.38e) than on C2 (+0.42e). This is contrary to the case of atomic oxygen adsorption on pristine graphene, where two C atoms transfer almost equal amounts of charge to atomic oxygen adsorbed in case of pure graphene. The electron localization function (ELF) plots and isosurfaces of atomic oxygen adsorbed on pristine graphene and undoped DV are shown in Fig. S2.† The isovalue is set at 0.62. Two carbon atoms of pristine graphene have the same tendency to interact with an incoming oxygen atom as is evident from the symmetrical nature of C–O–C ELF plot. In the case of undoped DV, the presence of higher ELF values between C2–O when compared to C1–O, indicates that C2's tendency to hybridize with O is higher. Even though the preferred configuration and sites for oxygen atom binding on 2N, 2B and B2N doped DV graphene are identical to the undoped case, there is a dramatic change in the trend of adsorption energies from the doped pristine graphene to doped DV graphene. The calculated adsorption energies using PBE functional and PAW potential of VASP are tabulated in Table 1. Interestingly, inspection of Table 1 reveals that the enhancement of oxygen atom binding energies on DV upon doping is not as prominent as in the pure case. The adsorption energy of O on 2N-DV is −4.21 eV/−4.28 eV, which is smaller than the adsorption energy of O on 2N-P. The elongated bonds in the central defective region results in a weaker interaction between the pz orbital of a nitrogen atom and a pz orbital of a neighboring C atom and hence the amount of charge transferred from N to the π* orbital of graphene sheet is less. Also because of electronegativity difference, the net charge transfer from the carbon atoms to nitrogen dopant (Bader charge on N = −0.83e and on C1 = +0.59e) but is lesser than in the 2N-P case. The acceptor level induced by C1 shifts down or the Fermi level goes up compared to the undoped case, but is not completely filled (see Fig. S3e† for pz orbital projected band structure of C1) and hence O adsorption in an enolate configuration on C1 site, results in a weaker binding compared to the 2N-P case. ELF contours and isosurfaces of oxygen atom adsorption on 2N-P and 2N-DV are plotted and shown in Fig. S6.† The isovalue is set to 0.62. The covalency of the C–O interaction can be seen clearly in both the surfaces from the presence of ELF maxima between C and O atoms and also from the bonding ELF lobe between C and O. The ELF value at the C–O bond is however greater in 2N-P than in 2N-DV, suggesting stronger covalency and hence higher C–O bond strength.
For 2B-DV graphene the adsorption energy of atomic oxygen is −4.19 eV/−4.26 eV with epoxy configuration. The epoxide type bonding on this surface implies that both C1 and boron atoms (now replacing C2) take part in bonding, resulting in the adsorption energy being only slightly smaller than the 2B-P case. The ELF contour of epoxide on 2B-P and 2B-DV are shown in Fig. S7(a) and (b)† respectively. The presence of ELF maximum between both C,O and B,O signifies that both C and B atoms of the graphene lattice take part in bonding with O. The higher electronegativity difference between B and O as compared to B and C makes the boron atom transfer its charge to the incoming O atom and the in-plane B–C bond is subsequently weakened, as is evident from the ELF plot. The binding energy of atomic oxygen on co-doped B2N-DV system is −4.37/−4.45 eV. This enhanced binding energy when compared to B2N-P can be understood by comparing the ELF of these systems (shown in Fig. 3). The observation of very low ELF values in B2N-P between C and O signifies lesser contribution of C to the O atom binding, resulting in lesser adsorption energy. The B2N-DV however has stronger boron atom binding to the adsorbate, and together with the contribution from C2, the overall O atom binding energy is stabilized, amounting it to be −4.37/−4.45 eV. Bader charge analysis confirms this fact, with the oxygen atom gaining 1.12e from B2N-DV, while it acquires 1.07e from B2N-P. The pz-orbital projected band structure of atoms in B2N-P and B2N-DV are shown in Fig. S5.† The lesser contribution to the overall pz from the boron and an adjacent carbon atom (see Fig. S5a and b†) in the case of B2N-P may provide evidence to the reduction in the binding energy of atomic oxygen. The B2N-DV system, however has strong contribution from C2 to the overall pz states (see Fig. S5e†), enhancing its binding ability. The B3N-DV system anchors the oxygen atom in an enolate configuration at the B site (now replacing C1) and the adsorption energy is −4.11/−4.19 eV, which is lesser than B3N-P. The ELF plots (see Fig. S8†), however show almost the same degree of covalency for O atom binding, indicating that the ionicity plays a decisive role in determining the adsorption strength. In fact, the Bader charges, reveal that the charge transferred from B3N-P to O (−1.31e) is higher than that of B3N-DV to O (−1.24e), explaining the higher binding in the former case. Hence, from the results of B/N doped pristine and DV graphene it is evident that the strength of O adsorption is determined by the covalency and ionic binding with C and B atom and occupation of pz orbitals of active sites, and on the nature of localized states in the defective region.

Oxygen molecule adsorbs less strongly on both 2B-P and 2B-DV, with the adsorption energies being −0.028/−0.155 eV and 0.069/−0.07 eV respectively. This is consistent with previous theoretical estimates that the energy cost for the formation of adsorbed oxygen molecule is higher in B doped graphene than in N doped graphene.40 In the case of B2N, an oxygen molecule prefers to adsorb on a B site with an adsorption energy of −0.349/−0.516 eV in pristine case and 0.056/−0.096 eV in the DV case. The pz orbital projected DOS of the central boron atom and a neighboring nitrogen atom in B2N-P and B2N-DV and the p states of the incoming oxygen molecule before and after adsorption are shown in the Fig. S9.† More importantly, the shift in the nitrogen pz states can be observed along with the hybridization of boron pz and O2 p states. Bader charge analysis indicates that the charge on each N atom of B2N-P after adsorption is −1.40e, which is +0.07e lesser than the charge on N without O2 adsorption and on B2N-DV is −1.15e, which is +0.05e lesser than the charge on N without O2 adsorption.
As a final case, we also test the adsorption of O2 on B3N, i.e. a boron atom surrounded entirely by nitrogen. The adsorption energy in B3N-P, with O2 molecule on B site is −1.19/−1.38 eV. In B3N-DV, the C1 site is replaced by B and the adjacent C2 sites are now nitrogen atoms. The adsorption energy is −0.58/−0.74 eV, which is again remarkably lesser than in the B3N-P case. The DOS before and after O2 adsorption is shown in Fig. S10.† There is clear indication that the higher adsorption energy in B3N-P is due to the higher occupation of nitrogen pz states located near the Fermi level. The O2 molecular adsorption energies and Bader charges on active sites before and after O2 adsorption are summarized in Table 2. Based on the above discussions, it can be concluded that the nature of the localized defect state at the active site, the position of the π state of the nitrogen (dopant) relative to the Fermi level and hence its ability to transfer charge from its pz orbital (via the active site) to the adsorbate synergistically contribute in determining the adsorption of atomic and molecular oxygen.

In alkaline conditions, the reduction of O2 occurs as O2 + 2H2O(l) + 4e− → 4OH−, with each coupled proton–electron transfer step being:
O2 + 2H2O(l) + 4e− + * → OOH* + OH− + H2O(l) + 3e− |
OOH* + OH− + H2O(l) + 3e− → O* + 2OH− + H2O + 2e− |
O* + 2OH− + H2O + 2e− → OH* + 3OH− + e− |
OH* + 3OH− + e− → * + 4OH− |
The ORR profile of doped pristine graphene is examined first in detail (see Scheme 1 for a schematic of the ORR steps). The strong tendency of 2N-P to adsorb O in enolate configuration is reflected clearly in the free energy profile (see Fig. 5a). At zero cell potential, the formation of OOH* and the reduction of O* to OH* are the most endothermic and compete in determining the onset potential, with the latter step being slightly more endothermic than the former. At equilibrium potential, the maximum free energy difference in the reaction pathway is considered to be a measure of the overpotential (η) and the corresponding step is the potential-determining step (PDS). At an equilibrium cell potential of 0.4 V, the formation of OOH* is endothermic by 1.07 eV and reduction of O* to OH* is uphill by 1.09 eV, hence η = 1.09 V, with O* to OH* conversion being the PDS. The potential at which all steps are downhill in energy (onset potential) is hence −0.69 V (0.14 V) vs. SHE (RHE). In the case of 2B (Fig. 5b), weak adsorption of O2 results in the first step being highly endothermic. Even at a cell potential of −0.83 V, the first step is endothermic by 0.25 eV, hinting that this surface may not be efficient in catalyzing the ORR, requiring a high overpotential (note that a higher dopant concentration or the presence of dispersed dopants may aid in reducing the barrier, but this is beyond the scope of the present work).

Fig. 5c shows the free energy profile of ORR on B2N. Results from the preceding sections reveal that the binding of O2 and O are not too strong nor too weak as compared to the 2N and 2B cases. This results in all the ORR steps being less endothermic in energy when compared to the 2N and 2B, with the reduction of OH* to OH− being the PDS, requiring the highest barrier of 0.81 eV at equilibrium cell potential of 0.40 V. The operating potential is hence −0.41 V (0.42 V) vs. SHE (RHE), which is the highest among the systems studied.
As a final case the ORR profile on the system having the highest O2 binding, viz. B3N is plotted and shown in Fig. 5d. The strong tendency to adsorb O is again manifested in the free energy profile, with the reduction of OOH* to O* being highly exothermic which makes the protonation of O* to OH* potential-limiting. The overpotential in this case can be identified to be 0.93 V, with the operating potential being −0.53 (0.29) V vs. SHE (RHE).
Now we examine the ORR profile of doped DV systems in detail. The constructed pathways are shown in Fig. 6. The lower binding affinities of DV systems toward O2 and O when compared to pure systems can be clearly understood from the free energy profiles. In the case of ORR on 2N-DV, shown in Fig. 6a, the lesser binding strength of oxygen atom in enolate configuration as compared to 2N-P makes the hydrogenation of OOH* to be the PDS. At U = 0 V, this step is thermodynamically endothermic by 0.643 eV. When the potential is corrected to U = 0.4 V, the maximum free energy difference in the reaction pathway is 1.04 eV and at an onset potential of −0.64 V (0.19 V) vs. SHE (RHE), all steps are downhill in energy. In the case of 2B-DV, the formation of OOH* intermediate requires the highest energy, and at U = 0 V, this step is uphill by 0.83 eV as evident from the free energy profile shown in Fig. 6b. At the equilibrium potential of 0.40 V, the formation of OOH* is the PDS, that is still uphill in energy by 1.23 eV. This implies that 2B-DV system's inability to bind O2 makes this system less efficient in catalyzing the ORR. ORR pathways on the B2N-DV surface at varying potentials are shown in Fig. 6c. The potential determining step is the formation of OOH*, requiring an overpotential of 0.94 V at U0 = 0.4 V. The ORR proceeds at an on-set potential of −0.54 V (0.28 V). The B3N-DV system on the other hand, binds O2 moderately and at U0 = 0.4 V, the first step is only slightly endothermic by 0.26 eV. But the removal of OH* from the surface is the PDS, requiring a relatively high barrier of 1.06 eV to be surmounted. Hence the overpotential is again high, limiting the ORR kinetics and an onset potential of −0.65 (0.17) V is required for all steps to become downhill and the ORR to proceed (see Fig. 6d). The potential-determining steps, overpotential and operating potential for ORR on the investigated graphitic systems are tabulated in Table 3.

---|---|---|---|
2N-P | 3 | 1.1 | −0.69 (0.14) |
2N-DV | 1 | 1.04 | −0.64 (0.19) |
2B-P | 1 | 1.48 | — |

In addition to the 555-777 DV defect, the formation of other low energy defects may also be possible on a graphene sheet. Single vacancies (5–9 defects, henceforth named as SV) are one class of such defects, having formation energies in the range 7.1–7.4 eV (ref. 47). However, the presence of SV results in dangling sp2 bonds of the carbon atoms near the vacancy and unbalance between spin polarized π-orbitals.47,48 This would undoubtedly result in higher adsorption energies, as described in previous works.41 Our calculations confirm the same, with an oxygen molecule dissociating almost spontaneously upon adsorption on a SV defect. However, doping the SV with boron and nitrogen (B2N-SV) retains the associative adsorption of the O2 molecule, albeit with a strong adsorption energy (Ea = −2.82 eV). The optimized structure post O2 adsorption is shown in Fig. S11(a).† The complete ORR profile is shown in Fig. S11(b).† The strong adsorption of O2 makes the removal of adsorbed OH difficult implying that B2N-SV defect is less suited for ORR applications.
