The precursor PANI@carbon felt composite was pyrolyzed in microwave oven for different time (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 s) and denoted as NC-\n                    <jats:italic>X<\/jats:italic>\n                    (\n                    <jats:italic>X<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u00a0=\u00a010, 20, 30, 40, 50). As for NC-30, nitrogen-doping content is obtained up to 3.62 at% with striking enrichment of pyridinic N as high as 45% of the total nitrogen content. Raman analysis indicates the extent graphitization level for the resultant NC-30 and the relative intensity\n                    <jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>D<\/jats:sub>\n                    \/\n                    <jats:italic>I<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>G<\/jats:sub>\n                    was 1.26. High nitrogen-doping content and graphitization level provide effective active sites and efficient electron transfer channel. The resultant NC-30 exhibits pronounced ORR activity with an onset potential of 0.94 V (versus RHE), half-wave potential of 0.80 V and diffusion limiting current density of \u22125.23 mA cm\n                    <jats:sup>\u22122<\/jats:sup>\n                    , comparable to those of the commercial Pt\/C. It also shows enhanced stability with current retention of 98.3% over 7.5 h as well as superior tolerance against methanol. The simple preparation and excellent ORR performance of NC-30 suggest its promising practical application.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1088\/1361-6528\/aac3f5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,11]],"date-time":"2018-05-11T07:15:22Z","timestamp":1526022922000},"page":"305708","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1088\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Ultrafast microwave-assisted synthesis of nitrogen-doped carbons as electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction"],"prefix":"10.1088","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Jingjing","family":"Xu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ruifang","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shiyao","family":"Lu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huan","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhaoyang","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xinyu","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5683-0973","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shujiang","family":"Ding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"266","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"nanoaac3f5bib1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"4245","DOI":"10.1021\/cr020730k","type":"journal-article","article-title":"What are batteries, fuel cells and supercapacitors?","volume":"104","author":"Winter","year":"2004","journal-title":"Chem.
