From single Ni atom to tetranuclear Ni clusters on graphdiyne: Unraveling size-dependent catalysis toward formic acid dehydrogenation

Designing stable, efficient, and low-cost catalysts based on earth-abundant elements is vital for advancing HCOOH as a hydrogen storage medium. In this work, four graphdiyne-supported nickel-based single-atom/cluster catalysts, Ni x @GDY (x = 1–4), were designed and their stabili...
