Fig. 2: Synthesis and characterization of FeN4O2-SACs.

a Synthetic process of biomimetic FeN4O2-SACs. b TEM image of FeN4O2-SACs. n = 3 samples with similar results. c AC HAADF-STEM image of FeN4O2-SACs, with single iron atoms marked using red circles. n = 3 samples with similar results. d HAADF-STEM image and corresponding EDX mappings of FeN4O2-SACs: C (blue), N (green), Fe (yellow). e EELS atomic spectrum of Fe elements in FeN4O2-SACs. The element-specific absorption edge is highlighted by a red circle. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
