Probing the Crystal Plane Effect of Co3O4 for Enhanced Electrocatalytic Performance toward Efficient Overall Water Splitting
Abstract
Identifying effective methods to enhance the properties of catalysts is urgent to broaden the scanty technologies, so far. Herein, we synthesized four Co 3 O 4 crystals with different crystal planes and explored the crystal planes’ effects on electrochemical water splitting through theoretical and experimental studies for the first time. The results illustrate that the correlation of catalytic activity is established as {111} > {112} > {110} > {001}. Co 3 O 4 crystals exposed with {111} facets show the highest OER (oxygen evolution reaction) and HER (hydrogen evolution reaction) activities. Upon fabrication in an alkaline electrolyzer, the bifunctional {111}∥{111} couple manifests the highest catalytic activity and satisfying durability for overall water splitting. Density functional theory (DFT) explains that the {111} facet possesses the biggest dangling bond density, highest surface energy, and smallest absolute value of Δ G H*, leading to the enhanced electrocatalytic performance. This work will broaden our vision to improve the activity of various electrocatalysts by selectively exposing the specific crystal planes.

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.
