Interfacial Engineering of W2N/WC Heterostructures Derived from Solid‐State Synthesis: A Highly Efficient Trifunctional Electrocatalyst for ORR, OER, and HER
Abstract
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 W 2 N/WC heterostructures, in which abundant interfaces are formed. Under high temperature (800 °C), volatile CNx species from dicyanodiamide are trapped by WO 3 nanorods, followed by simultaneous nitridation and carbonization, to form W 2 N/WC heterostructure catalysts. The resultant W 2 N/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 W 2 N/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 W 2 N/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.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
