Hierarchical CoP–FeP Branched Heterostructures for Highly Efficient Electrocatalytic Water Splitting
Open accessAbstract
The development of efficient non-noble metal electrocatalysts for sustainable water splitting is crucial for clean energy conversion and has drawn extensive attention. Currently, nonprecious metal phosphides have emerged as efficient electrocatalysts to replace noble metals for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, it is still a great challenge for fabrication of universal, efficient and durable bifunctional electrocatalysts for these reactions via structural and component engineering. Herein, we report the design and construction of the hierarchical CoP–FeP branched heterostructures as high-performance and durable bifunctional electrocatalysts for both hydrogen and oxygen evolution electrocatalysis in various electrolytes. In such unique heterojunction, the intimate interfacial contact could induce built-in electric field at the interface, which effectively optimizes the surface electronic states of the FeP by the CoP, thus promoting the charge transfer and enhancing the electrocatalytic activity. As a consequence, the CoP–FeP heterostructures exhibit excellent performance for HER electrocatalysis, needing overpotentials as low as 30 and 71 mV to drive the 10 mA cm –2 current densities in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 and 1.0 M KOH solutions, respectively, which are very close to that of Pt/C and rank it among the most HER-active electrocatalysts reported so far. Moreover, they can also behave as an efficient OER electrocatalyst with a very low overpotential of 250 mV at 10 mA cm –2 in 1.0 M KOH, outperforming most of the nonprecious-metal phosphides previously reported.

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.
