Abstract
En 中文
The design and manufacture of strongly engaged, low-cost, and resilient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts is the most challenging task in electrochemical hydrolysis. Herein, Ce and Ni co-doped MnO2 (NiCe/MnO2) nanosheets (NSs) with oxygen vacancy (VO) and abundant active sites have been prepared in one step employing a defect strategy. The co-doping of Ce/Ni on the one hand reduced the catalyst particle size and increased the specific surface area, which promoted the exposure of more active sites. On the other hand, heteroatom doping altered the species the crystalline surface, stimulating the formation of Vo and thus activating the catalyst performance simultaneously. The OER performance of NiCe/MnO2 NSs was significantly enhanced over the pure 8-MnO2, with an overpotential of 170 mV (10 mA cm-2), which was verified by density functional theory. This work shows a straightforward and practical method for making non-precious metal electrocatalysts with high electrochemical hydrolysis performance.(c) 2022 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC.
