| 研究実績の概要 |
Performed catalyst synthesis, extensive characterisation and variation of the synthesis parameters (pyrolysis temperature, nitrogen content and metal loading). Started investigation of alternative metal precursors to iron. We have clarified the effects of various different heat treatment parameters on the catalytic activity of the resulting materials, linking changes in activity to mainly changes in pore size distribution and active site density.
We clarified how metal precursors decompose during heat treatment to form catalytic active sites on the nitrogen-doped carbon supports, using in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy at high temperature. The results were presented at conferences, published in a book, a book chapter, and several other manuscripts are in preparation.

理由
We are on schedule according to the original plan.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
We will continue with the original plan, focusing more on durability testing of the designed electrocatalysts, and membrane electrode assembly (MEA) tests. Additionally we will start investigation of alternative metals. We will continue with the high temperature in-situ characterisation techniques. We will visit Saga Beam Line several times to continue our XAS investigation, and will use in-situ XPS at Charles University in Czech Republic for a second time (delayed due to COVID-19). We will attend conferences to present our work, and push to publish the data we already collected in peer reviewed journals.
