title: Nano-size layered manganese-calcium oxide as an efficient and biomimetic catalyst for water oxidation under acidic conditions: comparable to platinum.
abstract: Inspired by Nature's catalyst, a nano-size layered manganese-calcium oxide showed a low overvoltage for water oxidation in acidic solutions, which is comparable to platinum.
