CoP Nanoframes as Bifunctional Electrocatalysts for Efficient Overall Water Splitting

Open access

Abstract

Abstract Transition-metal phosphides have been shown to be promising electrocatalysts in water for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). To maximize reactivity toward both entails limiting the catalyst size while maintaining reactivity and avoiding aggregation. Frame-like hollow nanostructures (nanoframes) provide the required open structure with sufficient channels into the interior volume. We demonstrate here the design and synthesis of CoP nanoframes (CoP NFs) by a strategy involving precipitation, chemical etching, and low-temperature phosphidation steps. It results in impressive bifunctional catalytic activities for both HER and OER and consequently enables a highly efficient water electrolyzer with a current density of 10 mA cm–2 driven by a cell voltage of only 1.65 V. The strategy has been generalized for the preparation of nanoframe Co dichalcogenides CoX2 NFs, with X = S, Se, and Te. The results of electrochemical measurements, supported by density functional theory calculations, show that HER catalytic activities for the series follow the sequence: CoP NFs > CoSe2 NFs > CoS2 NFs > CoTe2 NFs.

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.
