Abstract Iron-nitrogen-carbon (Fe-N-C) materials as the most promising non-precious metal catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) to replace Pt-based catalysts are in high demand for large scale application of fuel cells. However, their activity and durability are still critical issues. Development of Fe/N/C-containing precursors is a straightforward strategy for obtaining advanced Fe-N-C ORR catalysts to address these issues. Herein, we report an advanced Fe-N-C catalyst with a hybrid structure of single Fe atom sites (Fe-Nx moieties) and exposed Fe carbides/nitrides nanodots with diameters
