Metallic Single‐Unit‐Cell Orthorhombic Cobalt Diselenide Atomic Layers: Robust Water‐Electrolysis Catalysts

Abstract

The bottleneck in water electrolysis lies in the kinetically sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, conceptually new metallic non‐metal atomic layers are proposed to overcome this drawback. Metallic single‐unit‐cell CoSe 2 sheets with an orthorhombic phase are synthesized by thermally exfoliating a lamellar CoSe 2‐DETA hybrid. The metallic character of orthorhombic CoSe 2 atomic layers, verified by DFT calculations and temperature‐dependent resistivities, allows fast oxygen evolution kinetics with a lowered overpotential of 0.27 V. The single‐unit‐cell thickness means 66.7 % of the Co 2+ ions are exposed on the surface and serve as the catalytically active sites. The lowered Co 2+ coordination number down to 1.3 and 2.6, gives a lower Tafel slope of 64 mV dec−1 and higher turnover frequency of 745 h−1. Thus, the single‐unit‐cell CoSe 2 sheets have around 2 and 4.5 times higher catalytic activity compared with the lamellar CoSe 2‐DETA hybrid and bulk CoSe 2.

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.
