Abstract

Spin‐polarization is known as a promising way to promote the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER), since the intermediates and products endow spin‐dependent behaviors, yet it is rarely reported for ferromagnetic catalysts toward acidic OER practically used in industry. Herein, the first spin‐polarization‐mediated strategy is reported to create a net ferromagnetic moment in antiferromagnetic RuO 2 via dilute manganese (Mn 2+ ) ( S = 5/2) doping for enhancing OER activity in acidic electrolyte. Element‐selective X‐ray magnetic circular dichroism reveals the ferromagnetic coupling between Mn and Ru ions, fulfilling the Goodenough–Kanamori rule. The ferromagnetism behavior at room temperature can be well interpreted by first principles calculations as the interaction between the Mn 2+ impurity and Ru ions. Indeed, Mn‐RuO 2 nanoflakes exhibit a strongly magnetic field enhanced OER activity, with the lowest overpotential of 143 mV at 10 mA cm geo −2 and negligible activity decay in 480 h stability (vs 200 mV/195 h without magnetic field) as known for magnetic effects in the literature. The intrinsic turnover frequency is also improved to reach 5.5 s −1 at 1.45 V RHE . This work highlights an important avenue of spin‐engineering strategy for designing efficient acidic oxygen evolution catalysts.

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.
