AbstractSingle-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted tremendous research interests in various energy-related fields because of their high activity, selectivity and 100% atom utilization. However, it is still a challenge to enhance the intrinsic and specific activity of SACs. Herein, we present an approach to fabricate a high surface distribution density of iridium (Ir) SAC on nickel-iron sulfide nanosheet arrays substrate (Ir1/NFS), which delivers a high water oxidation activity. The Ir1/NFS catalyst offers a low overpotential of ~170 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm−2 and a high turnover frequency of 9.85 s−1 at an overpotential of 300 mV in 1.0 M KOH solution. At the same time, the Ir1/NFS catalyst exhibits a high stability performance, reaching a lifespan up to 350 hours at a current density of 100 mA cm−2. First-principles calculations reveal that the electronic structures of Ir atoms are significantly regulated by the sulfide substrate, endowing an energetically favorable reaction pathway. This work represents a promising strategy to fabricate high surface distribution density single-atom catalysts with high activity and durability for electrochemical water splitting.

The recently described solid solution (Co,Ni,Mn)3Sb4O6F6has proved stable and efficient as a catalyst for electrocatalytic water oxidation. The end component Co3Sb4O6F6was found to be most efficient, maintaining a current density ofj= 10 mA cm−2at an overpotential of 443 mV with good capability. At this current density, O2and H2were produced in the ratio 1 : 2 without loss of faradaic current against a Pt-cathode. A morphological change in the crystallite surface was observed after 0.5 h, however, even after 64.5 h, the overall shape and size of the small crystallites were unaffected and the electrolyte contained only 0.02 at% Co. It was also possible to conclude fromin situEXAFS measurements that the coordination around Co did not change. The oxofluorides express both hydrophilic and hydrophobic surface sites, incorporate a flexible metalloid element and offer the possibility of a mechanism that differs from other inorganic catalytic pathways previously described.

The increasing energy crisis promotes the study on novel electrode materials with high performance for supercapacitive storage and energy conversion. Transition metal phosphates have been reported as a potential candidate due to the unique coordination and corresponding electronic structure. Herein, we adopted a facile method for preparing NaCoPO4@C derived from a metal organic framework (MOF) as a bifunctional electrode. ZIF-67 was synthesized before a refluxing process with Na2HPO4 to form a precursor, which is transformed into the final product via calcination in different atmospheres. Specifically, the resultant NaCoPO4@C exhibits a high specific capacitance of 1178.7[Formula: see text]F[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] at a current density of 1[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] for a supercapacitor. An asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) assembled with active carbon displays a high capacitance of 163.7[Formula: see text]F[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] at 1[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text]. In addition, as an oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyst, the NaCoPO4@C electrode requires only 299[Formula: see text]mV to drive a current density of 10[Formula: see text]mA[Formula: see text]cm[Formula: see text]. These results suggest that the rational design of MOF-derived NaCoPO4@C provides a variety of practical applications in electrochemical energy conversion and storage.

In this article, polyaniline nanofibers/reduced graphene oxide (PANI-NFs/rGO) nanocomposites were prepared by a one-pot hydrothermal method. Under the condition of high temperature and high pressure, graphene oxide (GO) was reduced to rGO and aniline was in-situ polymerized to form PANI-NFs using ammonium persulfate as oxidant. The morphologies and structures of PANI-NFs/rGO nanocomposites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and Raman analysis. The results show that PANI-NFs uniformly grow on the surfaces of rGO sheets, which can act as spacers to prevent the aggregation of rGO. Combining with FTIR and Raman analysis, it can be concluded that PANI-NFs/rGO nanocomposites are successfully prepared. The electrochemical performances of PANI-NFs/rGO nanocomposites were tested by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge–discharge. The PANI-NFs/rGO nanocomposites exhibit superior electrochemical performances compared to the PANI-NFs. With 10 wt% of GO loaded, the PANI-NFs/rGO nanocomposite exhibits highest specific capacitance of 942 F g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1. The PANI-NFs/rGO nanocomposites also demonstrate good rate capacity and high cycling stability under the high discharging current density (10 A g−1), the specific capacitance can still reach to 680 F g−1. After 1000 charge–discharge cycling at a current density of 5 A g−1, 78% of specific capacitance can be retained. The enhanced capacitive performances can be attributed to the facile electron conduction pathway brought by the even distribution of highly conductive rGO nanosheets.
