Abstract
This comprehensive review explores recent advancements in electrocatalyst architecture to enhance the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs). It examines strategies such as nanostructuring, alloying, and heteroatom doping to improve catalytic activity, stability, and durability properties. Key findings reveal the importance of optimizing catalyst morphology, composition, and interface engineering to mitigate challenges such as sluggish kinetics and electrode degradation. Additionally, insights into mechanistic aspects and performance metrics are discussed, highlighting the crucial role of electrocatalysts in advancing AEMFC technology. Overall, this review provides valuable perspectives for researchers and engineers in designing efficient and durable electrocatalysts for next-generation AEMFCs, thereby facilitating the transition towards sustainable energy solutions.
