“…Regulating the geometric structure of metal catalytic centers can achieve charge redistribution between a single atom and carbon supporter, nally inuencing the catalytic activity. [87][88][89][90] Normally, the stable M-N 4 species with saturated coordination structure is a common model for most SACs. However, many studies conrm that the microstructure regulation of single metal centers, such as heterogeneous atom substitution or an oversaturated coordination structure, shows a signicant inuence on the catalytic performance of SACs.…”

“…For these key steps in heterocatalysis, the unique geometric and electronic properties of SACs can play to their advantages. 27 SACs provide a powerful solution to achieve desirable chemical reactions with high activity and selectivity. This section will discuss the merits of SACs demonstrated in heterocatalysis, which can potentially take effect in photoelectrocatalysis.…”

“…[15][16][17][18] By downsizing metal nanoparticles into the SAs, Pt utilization efficiency is signicantly enhanced without compromising photocatalytic efficiency. [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] Several strategies have been developed for decorating single-atom catalysts (SACs) onto TiO 2 nanostructures, resulting in improved catalytic efficacy. 27 However, a notable challenge arises when utilizing Pt SAs is their thermodynamic instability due to high surface energies, which predisposes them to agglomeration during reaction cycles.…”
