Abstract

Iron doped MnO₂ nanorods are successfully synthesized via one step hydrothermal method. The nanorods shows remarkable high bifunctional electrocatalytic activity for oxygen reduction as well as oxygen evolution reaction. For practical applications, a solid-state zinc–air battery was made for powering a light emitting diode.
