Alkaline water splitting, especially the anion-exchange-membrane based water electrolysis, is an attractive way for low-cost and scalable H2 production. Green electricity-driven alkaline water electrolysis is requested to develop highly-efficient electrocatalysts...
Electrolysis of water to produce high-purity hydrogen is a very promising method. The development of green, high-efficiency, long-lasting and low-cost dual function electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen...
An amorphous Ni–P alloy shell electrodeposited on a CuO nanowire array to synergistically boost the catalytic activity toward alkaline water splitting is reported, and this core@shell CuO@Ni–P nanowire array is durable with a cell voltage of only 1.71 V reaching a current density of 30 mA cm−2 using a two-electrode configuration in an alkaline water electrolyzer.
Rationally designing high-performance non-noble metal electrocatalyst is of essence to improve energy conversion efficiency in water splitting. Herein, an unique 3D hierarchical sheet-on-sheet heterojunction between Fe(OH)3 and β-Ni(OH)2 on pretreated...
