Realizing the hydrogen economy by water electrolysis is an attractive approach for hydrogen production,while the efficient and stable bifunctional catalysts under high current densities are the bottleneck that limits the half-cell reactions of water splitting.Here,we propose an approach of hydrothermal and thermal annealing methods for robust MoO2/MoNi4@Ru/RuO2 heterogeneous cuboid ar-ray electrocatalyst with multiplying surface-active sites by depositing a monolayer amount of Ru.Benefiting from abundant MoO2/MoNi4@Ru/RuO2 heterointerfaces,MoO2/MoNi4@Ru/RuO2 heterogeneous cuboid array electrocatalysts effectively drive the alkaline water splitting with superior hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)and oxygen evolution reaction(OER)performances.The syn-thesized MoO2/MoNi4@Ru/RuO2 has high HER activity,which realizes the working overpotentials of 48 mV at 50 mA·cm-2,further achieving overpotentials of 230 mV for industry-level 1000 mA·cm-2 in alkaline water electrolysis.Moreover,it also showed an en-hanced OER activity than commercial RuO2 with a small overpotential of 280 mV at 200 mA·cm-2 in alkaline media.When building an electrolyzer with electrodes of(-)MoO2/MoNi4@Ru/RuO2lIMoO2/MoNi4@Ru/RuO2(+),a cell voltage of 1.63 V and 1.75 V is just re-quired to support the current density of 200 mA·cm-2 and 500 mA·cm-2 in alkaline water electrolysis,much lower than that of the electrolyzer of(-)Pt/CIIRuO2(+).This work demonstrates that MoO2/MoNi4@Ru/RuO2 heterogeneous nanosheet arrays are promising candidates for industrial water electrolysis applications,providing a possibility for the exploration of water electrolysis with a large current density.
