Water splitting is considered as a pollution‐free and efficient solution to produce hydrogen energy. Low‐cost and efficient electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are needed. Recently, chemical vapor deposition is used as an effective approach to gain high‐quality MoS2 nanosheets (NSs), which possess excellent performance for water splitting comparable to platinum. Herein, MoS2 NSs grown vertically on FeNi substrates are obtained with in situ growth of Fe5Ni4S8 (FNS) at the interface during the synthesis of MoS2. The synthesized MoS2/FNS/FeNi foam exhibits only 120 mV at 10 mA cm?2 for HER and exceptionally low overpotential of 204 mV to attain the same current density for OER. Density functional theory calculations further reveal that the constructed coupling interface between MoS2 and FNS facilitates the absorption of H atoms and OH groups, consequently enhancing the performances of HER and OER. Such impressive performances herald that the unique structure provides an approach for designing advanced electrocatalysts. 相似文献

The efficiency of splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen is highly dependent on the catalyst used. Herein, ultrathin Ni(0)-embedded Ni(OH)2 heterostructured nanosheets, referred to as Ni/Ni(OH)2 nanosheets, with superior water splitting activity are synthesized by a partial reduction strategy. This synthetic strategy confers the heterostructured Ni/Ni(OH)2 nanosheets with abundant Ni(0)-Ni(II) active interfaces for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and Ni(II) defects as transitional active sites for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The obtained Ni/Ni(OH)2 nanosheets exhibit noble metal-like electrocatalytic activities toward overall water splitting in alkaline condition, to offer 10 mA cm−2 in HER and OER, the required overpotentials are only 77 and 270 mV, respectively. Based on such an outstanding activity, a water splitting electrolysis cell using the Ni/Ni(OH)2 nanosheets as the cathode and anode electrocatalysts has been successfully built. When the output voltage of the electrolytic cell is 1.59 V, a current density of 10 mA cm−2 can be obtained. Moreover, the durability of Ni/Ni(OH)2 nanosheets in the alkaline electrolyte is much better than that of noble metals. No obvious performance decay is observed after 20 h of catalysis. This facile strategy paves the way for designing highly active non-precious-metal catalyst to generate both hydrogen and oxygen by electrolyzing water at room temperature. 相似文献

Developing efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts for seawater electrolysis is still a big challenge. Herein, a facile one-pot approach is reported to synthesize RuO2-incorporated NiFe-metal organic framework (RuO2/NiFe-MOF) with unique nanobrick-nanosheet heterostructure as precatalyst. Driven by electric field, the RuO2/NiFe-MOF dynamically reconstructs into RuO2 nanoparticles-anchored NiFe oxy/hydroxide nanosheets (RuO2/NiFeOOH) with coherent interface, during which the dissolution and redeposition of RuO2 are witnessed. Owing to the synergistic interaction between RuO2 and NiFeOOH, the as-reconstructed RuO2/NiFeOOH exhibits outstanding alkaline OER activity with an ultralow overpotential of 187.6 mV at 10 mA cm−2 and a small Tafel slope of 31.9 mV dec−1 and excellent durability at high current densities of 840 and 1040 mA cm−2 in 1 m potassium hydroxide (KOH). When evaluated for seawater oxidation, the RuO2/NiFeOOH only needs a low overpotential of 326.2 mV to achieve 500 mA cm−2 and can continuously catalyze OER at 500 mA cm−2 for 100 h with negligible activity degradation. Density function theory calculations reveal that the presence of strong interaction and enhanced charge transfer along the coherent interface between RuO2 and NiFeOOH ensures improved OER activity and stability. 相似文献

Searching for highly efficient and stable bifunctional electrocatalysts toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is highly desirable for the practical application of water electrolysis under alkaline electrolyte. Although electrocatalysts based on transition metal sulfides (TMSs) are widely studied as efficient (pre)catalysts toward OER under alkaline media, their HER performances are far less than the state‐of‐the‐art Pt catalyst. Herein, the synthesis of nitrogen doped 3D dandelion‐flower‐like CoS2 architecture directly grown on Ni foam (N‐CoS2/NF) is reported that possesses outstanding HER activity and durability, with an overpotential of 28 mV to obtain the current density of 10 mA cm?2, exceeding almost all the documented TMS‐based electrocatalysts. Density functional theory calculations and experimental results reveal that the d‐band center of CoS2 could be efficiently tailored by N doping, resulting in optimized adsorption free energies of hydrogen (ΔG*H) and water , which can accelerate the HER process in alkaline electrolyte. Besides, the resulting N‐CoS2/NF also displays excellent performance for OER, making it a high‐performance bifunctional electrocatalyst toward overall water splitting, with a cell voltage of 1.50 V to achieve 10 mA cm?2. 相似文献

The design of high‐efficiency non‐noble bifunctional electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is paramount for water splitting technologies and associated renewable energy systems. Spinel‐structured oxides with rich redox properties can serve as alternative low‐cost OER electrocatalysts but with poor HER performance. Here, zirconium regulation in 3D CoFe2O4 (CoFeZr oxides) nanosheets on nickel foam, as a novel strategy inducing bifunctionality toward OER and HER for overall water splitting, is reported. It is found that the incorporation of Zr into CoFe2O4 can tune the nanosheet morphology and electronic structure around the Co and Fe sites for optimizing adsorption energies, thus effectively enhancing the intrinsic activity of active sites. The as‐synthesized 3D CoFeZr oxide nanosheet exhibits high OER activity with small overpotential, low Tafel slope, and good stability. Moreover, it shows unprecedented HER activity with a small overpotential of 104 mV at 10 mA cm?2 in alkaline media, which is better than ever reported counterparts. When employing the CoFeZr oxides nanosheets as both anode and cathode catalysts for overall water splitting, a current density of 10 mA cm?2 is achieved at the cell voltage of 1.63 V in 1.0 m KOH. 相似文献

To meet the practical demand of overall water splitting and regenerative metal–air batteries, highly efficient, low-cost, and durable electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are required to displace noble metal catalysts. In this work, a facile solid-state synthesis strategy is developed to construct the interfacial engineering of W2N/WC heterostructures, in which abundant interfaces are formed. Under high temperature (800 °C), volatile CNx species from dicyanodiamide are trapped by WO3 nanorods, followed by simultaneous nitridation and carbonization, to form W2N/WC heterostructure catalysts. The resultant W2N/WC heterostructure catalysts exhibit an efficient and stable electrocatalytic performance toward the ORR, OER, and HER, including a half-wave potential of 0.81 V (ORR) and a low overpotential at 10 mA cm−2 for the OER (320 mV) and HER (148.5 mV). Furthermore, a W2N/WC-based Zn–air battery shows outstanding high power density (172 mW cm−2). Density functional theory and X-ray absorption fine structure analysis computations reveal that W2N/WC interfaces synergistically facilitate transport and separation of charge, thus accelerating the electrochemical ORR, OER, and HER. This work paves a novel avenue for constructing efficient and low-cost electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy devices. 相似文献

Among the bifunctional catalysts for water splitting, recently emerged transition‐metal single‐atom catalysts are theoretically considered to possess high potential, while the experimental activity is not satisfactory yet. Herein, an exceptionally efficient trifunctional metal–nitrogen–carbon (M–N–C) catalyst electrode, composed of a hierarchical carbon matrix embedding isolated nickel atoms with nickel–iron (NiFe) clusters, is presented. 1D microfibers and nanotubes grow sequentially from 2D nanosheets as sacrificial templates via two stages of solution‐ and solid‐phase reactions to form a 1D hierarchy. Exceptionally efficient bifunctional activity with an overpotential of only 13 mV at 10 mA cm?2 toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and an overpotential of 210 mV at 30 mA cm?2 toward oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is obtained, surpassing each monofunctional activity ever reported. More importantly, an overpotential of only 126 and 326 mV is required to drive 500 mA cm?2 toward the HER and OER, respectively. For the first time, industrial‐scale water splitting with two bifunctional catalyst electrodes with a current density of 500 mA cm?2 at a potential of 1.71 V is demonstrated. Lastly, trifunctional catalytic activity including oxygen reduction reaction is also proven with a half‐wave potential at 0.848 V. 相似文献

The development of highly active and stable oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts is crucial for improving the efficiency of water splitting and metal–air battery devices. Herein, an efficient strategy is demonstrated for making the oxygen vacancies dominated cobalt–nickel sulfide interface porous nanowires (NiS2/CoS2–O NWs) for boosting OER catalysis through in situ electrochemical reaction of NiS2/CoS2 interface NWs. Because of the abundant oxygen vacancies and interface porous nanowires structure, they can catalyze the OER efficiently with a low overpotential of 235 mV at j = 10 mA cm?2 and remarkable long‐term stability in 1.0 m KOH. The home‐made rechargeable portable Zn–air batteries by using NiS2/CoS2–O NWs as the air–cathode display a very high open‐circuit voltage of 1.49 V, which can maintain for more than 30 h. Most importantly, a highly efficient self‐driven water splitting device is designed with NiS2/CoS2–O NWs as both anode and cathode, powered by two‐series‐connected NiS2/CoS2–O NWs‐based portable Zn–air batteries. The present work opens a new way for designing oxygen vacancies dominated interface nanowires as highly efficient multifunctional electrocatalysts for electrochemical reactions and renewable energy devices. 相似文献

Herein, the hydrothermal synthesis of porous ultrathin ternary NiFeV layer double hydroxides (LDHs) nanosheets grown on Nickel foam (NF) substrate as a highly efficient electrode toward overall water splitting in alkaline media is reported. The lateral size of the nanosheets is about a few hundreds of nanometers with the thickness of ≈10 nm. Among all molar ratios investigated, the Ni0.75Fe0.125V0.125‐LDHs/NF electrode depicts the optimized performance. It displays an excellent catalytic activity with a modest overpotential of 231 mV for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and 125 mV for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in 1.0 m KOH electrolyte. Its exceptional activity is further shown in its small Tafel slope of 39.4 and 62.0 mV dec?1 for OER and HER, respectively. More importantly, remarkable durability and stability are also observed. When used for overall water splitting, the Ni0.75Fe0.125V0.125‐LDHs/NF electrodes require a voltage of only 1.591 V to reach 10 mA cm?2 in alkaline solution. These outstanding performances are mainly attributed to the synergistic effect of the ternary metal system that boosts the intrinsic catalytic activity and active surface area. This work explores a promising way to achieve the optimal inexpensive Ni‐based hydroxide electrocatalyst for overall water splitting. 相似文献

Developing low‐cost bifunctional electrocatalysts with superior activity for both the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is of great importance for the widespread application of the water splitting technique. In this work, using earth‐abundant transition metals (i.e., nickel, iron, and copper), 3D hierarchical nanoarchitectures, consisting of ultrathin Ni–Fe layered‐double‐hydroxide (Ni–Fe LDH) nanosheets or porous Ni–Fe oxides (NiFeOx) assembled to a metallic NiCu alloy, are delicately constructed. In alkaline solution, the as‐prepared Ni–Fe LDH@NiCu possesses outstanding OER activity, achieving a current density of 10 mA cm?2 at an overpotential of 218 mV, which is smaller than that of RuO2 catalyst (249 mV). In contrast, the resulting NiFeOx@NiCu exhibits better HER activity, yielding a current density of 10 mA cm?2 at an overpotential of 66 mV, which is slightly higher than that of Pt catalyst (53 mV) but superior to all other transition metal (hydr)oxide‐based electrocatalysts. The remarkable activity of the Ni–Fe LDH@NiCu and NiFeOx@NiCu is further demonstrated by a 1.5 V solar‐panel‐powered electrolyzer, resulting in current densities of 10 and 50 mA cm?2 at overpotentials of 293 and 506 mV, respectively. Such performance renders the as‐prepared materials as the best bifunctional electrocatalysts so far. 相似文献

The lack of high efficiency and pH-universal bifunctional electrocatalysts for water splitting to hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) hinders the large-scale production of green hydrogen. Here, an IrPd electrocatalyst supported on ketjenblack that exhibits outstanding bifunctional performance for both HER and OER at wide pH conditions is presented. The optimized IrPd catalyst exhibits a specific activity of 4.46 and 3.98 A mgIr−1 in the overpotential of 100 and 370 mV for HER and OER, respectively, in alkaline conditions. When applied to the anion exchange membrane electrolyzer, the Ir44Pd56/KB catalyst shows a stability of >20 h at a current of 250 mA cm−2 for water decomposition, indicating promising prospects for practical applications. Beyond offering an advanced electrocatalyst, this work also guides the rational design of desirable bifunctional electrocatalysts for HER and OER by regulating the microenvironments and electronic structures of metal catalytic sites for diverse catalysis. 相似文献

Metallic phase (1T) MoS2 has been regarded as an appealing material for hydrogen evolution reaction. In this work, a novel interface‐induced strategy is reported to achieve stable and high‐percentage 1T MoS2 through highly active 1T‐MoS2/CoS2 hetero‐nanostructure. Herein, a large number of heterointerfaces can be obtained by interlinked 1T‐MoS2 and CoS2 nanosheets in situ grown from the molybdate cobalt oxide nanorod under moderate conditions. Owing to the strong interaction between MoS2 and CoS2, high‐percentage of metallic‐phase (1T) MoS2 of 76.6% can be achieved, leading to high electroconductivity and abundant active sites compared to 2H MoS2. Furthermore, the interlinked MoS2 and CoS2 nanosheets can effectively disperse the nanosheets so as to enlarge the exposed active surface area. The near zero free energy of hydrogen adsorption at the heterointerface can also be achieved, indicating the fast kinetics and excellent catalytic activity induced by heterojunction. Therefore, when applied in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), 1T‐MoS2/CoS2 heterostructure delivers low overpotential of 71 and 26 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm?2 with low Tafel slops of 60 and 43 mV dec?1, respectively in alkaline and acidic conditions. 相似文献

Carbides are commonly regarded as efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalysts, but their poor oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalytic activities seriously limit their practical application in overall water splitting. Here, vertically aligned porous cobalt tungsten carbide nanosheet embedded in N‐doped carbon matrix (Co6W6C@NC) is successfully constructed on flexible carbon cloth (CC) as an efficient bifunctional electrocatalyst for overall water splitting via a facile metal–organic framework (MOF) derived method. The synergistic effect of Co and W atoms effectively tailors the electron state of carbide, optimizing the hydrogen‐binding energy. Thus Co6W6C@NC shows an enhanced HER performance with an overpotential of 59 mV at a current density of ?10 mA cm?2. Besides, Co6W6C@NC easily in situ transforms into tungsten actived cobalt oxide/hydroxide during the OER process, serving as OER active species, which provides an excellent OER activity with an overpotential of 286 mV at a current density of ?10 mA cm?2. The water splitting device, by applying Co6W6C@NC as both the cathode and anode, requires a low cell voltage of 1.585 V at 10 mA cm?2 with the great stability in alkaline solution. This work provides a feasible strategy to fabricate bimetallic carbides and explores their possibility as bifunctional catalysts toward overall water splitting. 相似文献

The development of trifunctional electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with deeply understanding the mechanism to enhance the electrochemical performance is still a challenging task. In this work, the distorted metastable hybrid-phase induced 1T′/1T Co,P SnS2 nanosheets on carbon cloth (1T′/1T Co,P SnS2@CC) is prepared and examined. The density functional theoretical (DFT) calculation suggests that the distorted 1T′/1T Co,P SnS2 can provide excellent conductivity and strong hydrogen adsorption ability. The electronic structure tuning and enhancement mechanism of electrochemical performance are investigated and discussed. The optimal 1T′/1T Co,P SnS2@CC catalyst exhibits low overpotential of ≈94 and 219.7 mV at 10 mA cm−2 for HER and OER, respectively. Remarkably, the catalyst exhibits exceptional ORR activity with small onset potential value (≈0.94 V) and half-wave potential (≈0.87 V). Most significantly, the 1T′/1T Co,P SnS2||Co,P SnS2 electrolyzer required small cell voltages of ≈1.53, 1.70, and 1.82 V at 10, 100, and 400 mA cm−2, respectively, which are better than those of state-of-the-art Pt-C||RuO2 (≈1.56 and 1.84 V at 10 and 100 mA cm−2). The present study suggests a new approach for the preparation of large-scalable, high performance hierarchical 3D next-generation trifunctional electrocatalysts. 相似文献

Unlike single-step reactions, multi-step reactions can be greatly facilitated only if all the intermediate reactions can be catalyzed simultaneously and progressively. Herein, the theoretical analysis and experiments to illustrate the superiority of the cascade oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are conducted. As different OER intermediate reactions demand FexNi1-xOOH with altered Fe/Ni ratios, gradient Fe-doped NiOOH can be an ideal electrocatalyst for the efficient cascade OER in line. Fine controlling of the nucleation sequence of iron and nickel sulfides leads to a FeS2@NiS2 core–shell structure. The activated outward diffusion of Fe dopants results in the gradient Fe/Ni ratios in the FexNi1-xOOH shell, where a cascade OER can happen. Electrochemical tests suggest that the FeS2@NiS2 only needs an overpotential of 237 mV to reach the current density of 10 mA cm−2, with fast reaction kinetics and good stability. 相似文献

Fabricating heterogeneous interfaces is an effective approach to improve the intrinsic activity of noble-metal-free catalysts for water splitting. Herein, 3D copper–nickel selenide (CuNi@NiSe) nanodendrites with abundant heterointerfaces are constructed by a precise multi-step wet chemistry method. Notably, CuNi@NiSe only needs 293 and 41 mV at 10 mA cm−2 for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), respectively. Moreover, the assembled CuNi@NiSe system just requires 2.2 V at 1000 mA cm−2 in anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyzer, which is 2.0 times better than Pt/C//IrO2. Mechanism studies reveal Cu defects on the Cu2−xSe surface boost the electron transfer between Cu atoms and Se atoms of Ni3Se4 via Cu2−xSe/Ni3Se4 interface, largely lowering the reaction barrier of rate-determining step for HER. Besides, the intrinsic activity of Ni atoms for in situ generated NiOOH is largely enhanced during OER because of the electron-modulating effect of Se atoms at Ni3Se4/NiOOH interface. The unique 3D structure also promotes the mass transfer during catalysis process. This work emphasizes the essential role of interfacial engineering for practical water splitting. 相似文献

The electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a highly important reaction that requires a relatively high overpotential and determines the rate of water splitting—a process for producing hydrogen. The overall OER performance is often largely limited by uncontrollable interface when active catalysts are loaded on conductive supports, for which polymer binders are widely used, but inevitably block species transportation channels. Here, a scalable fabrication approach to freestanding graphitized carbon nanofiber networks is reported, which provides abundant sites for in situ growing Fe/Ni catalysts with the improved interface. The fabricated hybrid membrane exhibits high activity and durability toward OER, with an overpotential of 280 mV at a geometrical current density of 10 mA cm?2 and a Tafel slope of 30 mV dec?1 in alkaline medium. As implemented as a freestanding electrode, the 3D hybrid structure achieves further enhanced OER performance with an overpotential down to 215 mV at 10 mA cm?2. This work provides fresh insights into rationally fabricating OER electrocatalysts from the angle of electrode design. 相似文献

2D MoS2 nanostructures have recently attracted considerable attention because of their outstanding electrocatalytic properties. The synthesis of unique Co–Ru–MoS2 hybrid nanosheets with excellent catalytic activity toward overall water splitting in alkaline solution is reported. 1T′ phase MoS2 nanosheets are doped homogeneously with Co atoms and decorated with Ru nanoparticles. The catalytic performance of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is characterized by low overpotentials of 52 and 308 mV at 10 mA cm?2 and Tafel slopes of 55 and 50 mV decade?1 in 1.0 m KOH, respectively. Analysis of X‐ray photoelectron and absorption spectra of the catalysts show that the MoS2 well retained its metallic 1T′ phase, which guarantees good electrical conductivity during the reaction. The Gibbs free energy calculation for the reaction pathway in alkaline electrolyte confirms that the Ru nanoparticles on the Co‐doped MoS2 greatly enhance the HER activity. Water adsorption and dissociation take place favorably on the Ru, and the doped Co further catalyzes HER by making the reaction intermediates more favorable. The high OER performance is attributed to the catalytically active RuO2 nanoparticles that are produced via oxidation of Ru nanoparticles. 相似文献

Herein, the authors demonstrate a heterostructured NiFe LDH‐NS@DG10 hybrid catalyst by coupling of exfoliated Ni–Fe layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheet (NS) and defective graphene (DG). The catalyst has exhibited extremely high electrocatalytic activity for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline solution with an overpotential of 0.21 V at a current density of 10 mA cm?2, which is comparable to the current record (≈0.20 V in Fe–Co–Ni metal‐oxide‐film system) and superior to all other non‐noble metal catalysts. Also, it possesses outstanding kinetics (Tafel slope of 52 mV dec?1) for the reaction. Interestingly, the NiFe LDH‐NS@DG10 hybrid has also exhibited the high hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance in an alkaline solution (with an overpotential of 115 mV by 2 mg cm?2 loading at a current density of 20 mA cm?2) in contrast to barely HER activity for NiFe LDH‐NS itself. As a result, the bifunctional catalyst the authors developed can achieve a current density of 20 mA cm?2 by a voltage of only 1.5 V, which is also a record for the overall water splitting. Density functional theory calculation reveals that the synergetic effects of highly exposed 3d transition metal atoms and carbon defects are essential for the bifunctional activity for OER and HER. 相似文献

Electrocatalysts based on hierarchically structured and heteroatom-doped non-noble metal oxide materials are of great importance for efficient and low-cost electrochemical water splitting systems. Herein, the synthesis of a series of hierarchical hollow nanoplates (NPs) composed of ultrathin Co3O4 nanosheets doped with 13 different metal atoms is reported. The synthesis involves a cooperative etching−coordination−reorganization approach starting from zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) NPs. First, metal atom decorated ZIF-67 NPs with unique cross-channels are formed through a Lewis acid etching and metal species coordination process. Afterward, the composite NPs are converted to hollow Co3O4 hierarchical NPs composed of ultrathin nanosheets through a solvothermal reaction, during which the guest metal species is doped into the octahedral sites of Co3O4. Density functional theory calculations suggest that doping of small amount of Fe atoms near the surface of Co3O4 can greatly enhance the electrocatalytic activity toward the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Benefiting from the structural and compositional advantages, the obtained Fe-doped Co3O4 hierarchical NPs manifest superior electrocatalytic performance for OER with an overpotential of 262 mV at 10 mA cm−2, a Tafel slope of 43 mV dec−1, and excellent stability even at a high current density of 100 mA cm−2 for 50 h. 相似文献
