title: Biochemistry-inspired direct synthesis of nitrogen and phosphorus dual-doped microporous carbon spheres for enhanced electrocatalysis.
abstract: Polydopamine-derived N,P-codoped microporous carbon spheres are rationally synthesized through the self-polymerization of dopamine induced by the phosphonic species, showing efficient performance towards electrocatalytic oxygen reduction and hydrogen evolution reactions, due to the well-developed porosity and doping effect.
