Oxygen Vacancy-Induced High-Spin Octahedral Co Sites Enable Accelerated Singlet Oxygen Production for Water Cleanup

Spinel Co3O4 holds great promise for pollutant elimination in Fenton-like catalysis. Nevertheless, octahedral CoOh3+ sites with an intrinsic low-spin (LS) configuration deliver sluggish electron transport and cannot efficiently initiate the singlet oxygen (1O2)-dominated nonradical pathway. To address this issue, we...
