    Efficient electrochemical reduction of nitrate to ammonia over metal-organic framework single-atom catalysts

    The design and preparation of efficient catalysts for ammonia production under mild conditions is a desirable but highly challenging target. Here, we report a series of single-atom catalysts [M-SACs, M = Mn(II...
