A Ti-supported IrO2 or RuO2 coated electrode with significantly improved electrocatalytic activity for the OER was fabricated using a highly porous electrodeposited silica film as the interlayer. The highly porous morphology ensures its high activity. The “inter-locking” structure between the active oxide layer and SiO2 film prolongs its life.
