Heterogeneous interfaces produced by inter-domain interactions on a nanoscale performs a crucial role in boosting the properties of an electrocatalyst toward oxygen evolution reaction(OER)process.Herein,a series of dual-phase electrodes with intimately connected heterointerfaces are prepared by in situ decomposing solid solution oxide of NixCoyFe100-x-yO,which grew on Ni foam massively via an ultrafast combustion approach.Particularly,with high-reaction kinetics caused by the reduction treatment at 450 ℃,the less electronegative Fe and Co are more oxyphilic than Ni,which facilitated their co-exsolution and formation of CoFe2O4/NiO oxide with enriched oxygen vacancies.Benefiting from the nanopor-ous framework,heterojunction structure,and oxygen defects,the self-supporting electrodes present rapid char-ge/mass transmission and provide abundant active sites for OER.The optimized sample(R-SNCF4.5)shows low overpotentials of 226 and 324 mV at 10 and 100 mA·cm-2,a small Tafel slope(46.7 mV·dec-1),and excellent stability.The assembled R-SNCF4.5//Pt/C/NF electrolyzer demonstrates continuous electrolysis over 50 h at a current density of 10 mA·cm-2,under 1.51 V.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations verify that the strong electronic modulation plays a critical part in the CoFe2O4/NiO hybrid by lowering the energy barriers for the rate-determining steps,and Fe sites are the most active OER sites.
