The expedited consumption of fossil fuels has triggered broad interest in the fabrication of novel catalysts for electrochemical energy storage and conversion.Especially,single-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted more attention owing to their high specific surface areas and abundant active centers.This review summarizes recent synthetic strategies to fabricate SACs with different metal loadings on various supports,and the structural influence of supports on metal loading.Then,the functions of SACs are illus-trated on electronic structure and electrocatalysis;the isolated SACs with an unsaturated coordination environment generally accelerate the electrocatalytic process and promote the selectivity.The applica-tions of SACs to some typical electrocatalytic reactions are also introduced in detail,as well as to electro-chemical energy storage and conversion systems.Finally,the challenges and the perspectives of SACs are discussed for future exploration.
