Revealing the Effect of Crystallinity and Oxygen Vacancies of Fe-Co Phosphate on Oxygen Evolution for High-Current Water Splitting.
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science(2023)
摘要
Strategically tuning the composition and structure of transition metal phosphates (TMPs) holds immense promise in the development of efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts. However, the effect of crystalline phase transformation for TMPs on the catalytic OER activity remains relatively uncharted. In this study, we have deftly orchestrated the reaction process of anion-etched precursor to induce the amorphization process of FeCo-POx from crystalline to amorphous states. The as-obtained amorphous FeCo-POx (A-FeCo-POx) exhibited an optimized OER performance with a low overpotential of 270 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2, which could be attributed to the flexibility of its amorphous structure and the synergistic effect of oxygen vacancies. Moreover, when incorporated into an overall water splitting (OWS) device configured as A-FeCo-POx(+)||Pt/C(-), it displayed long-term solid stability, sustaining operation for 300 h at a current density of 200 mA cm-2. This work not only provides valuable insights into understanding the transformation from crystalline to amorphous states, but also establishes the groundwork for the practical utilization of amorphous nanomaterials in the field of water splitting.
