Abstract
The electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (ENRR) to ammonia is a potentially sustainable alternative to the Haber-Bosch process, but low Faradaic efficiencies and rates hinder its implementation. Perovskite oxynitrides are a tunable class of materials with unique chemistry for ENRR. Elucidating structure-property-mechanism relations for perovskite oxynitrides will aid ENRR catalyst design.
