Exciting lattice oxygen of nickel-iron bi-metal alkoxide for efficient electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction

High efficiency,cost-effective and durable electrocatalysts are of pivotal importance in energy conversion and storage systems.The electro-oxidation of water to oxygen plays a crucial role in such energy conver-sion technologies.Herein,we report a robust method for the synthesis of a bimetallic alkoxide for effi-cient oxygen evolution reaction(OER)for alkaline electrolysis,which yields current density of 10 mA cm-2 at an overpotential of 215 mV in 0.1 M KOH electrolyte.The catalyst demonstrates an excel-lent durability for more than 540 h operation with negligible degradation in activity.Raman spectra revealed that the catalyst underwent structure reconstruction during OER,evolving into oxyhydroxide,which was the active site proceeding OER in alkaline electrolyte.In-situ synchrotron X-ray absorption experiment combined with density functional theory calculation suggests a lattice oxygen involved elec-trocatalytic reaction mechanism for the in-situ generated nickel-iron bimetal-oxyhydroxide catalyst.This mechanism together with the synergy between nickel and iron are responsible for the enhanced cat-alytic activity and durability.These findings provide promising strategies for the rational design of non-noble metal OER catalysts.
