A Facile Strategy to Construct Amorphous Spinel‐Based Electrocatalysts with Massive Oxygen Vacancies Using Ionic Liquid Dopant

Abstract

Oxygen vacancies are demonstrated to be beneficial to various electrocatalytic reactions. However, integrating oxygen vacancies into an amorphous catalyst with a large specific surface area, and investigating its effect on the oxygen evolution reaction remains a great challenge. Herein, oxygen vacancies are introduced into an amorphous N, P, and F tri‐doped CoFe 2 O 4 using ionic liquid as a dopant. Simultaneously, ultrafine MoS 2 nanoclusters are anchored onto its surface to increase the specific surface area. The vacancy‐rich MoS 2/NPF‐CoFe 2 O 4 exhibits an overpotential of 250 mV and a small Tafel slope of 41 mV dec−1, which is the best spinel‐based oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts so far. The excellent performance is attributed to massive oxygen vacancies, amorphous structure, large surface area, and synergistic coupling effects among active species. Density‐functional theory calculations reveal that the electronic structure of the catalyst can be modulated in the presence of heteroatoms and MoS 2 nanoclusters, and then the energy barriers of intermediates are decreased as well, which enhances the OER performance. This design not only provides a simple strategy to construct amorphous structures with abundant oxygen vacancies using ionic liquid‐dopants, but also presents an in‐depth insight into the OER mechanism in alkaline solution.

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.
