It is extensively accepted that electrolysis of water producing regenerable energy is a crucial substitution of traditional fuel strategy. Herein, we report a wet-chemical route to Ni-Fe layered double hydroxide (LDH) interconnected nanosheets with large surface area with the support of vertically aligned ZnO microrods arrays on the nickel foam (Ni-Fe LDH@ZnO/NF) for oxygen evolution reaction. Owing to the 2D Ni-Fe LDH nanosheets distributed in 3D space, the Ni-Fe LDH@ZnO/NF demonstrates excellent OER performances with a reasonably low overpotential of 271 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm-2, and a long-term stability up to 29 hours. This work proposes a new strategy to prepare Ni-Fe LDH/NF as efficient OER catalyst.
