Abstract

AbstractThe electrocatalytic performance of a spinel for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) can be significantly promoted by reversing its crystalline structure from the normal to the inverse. As the spinel structure reversed, the activation and cleavage of O−O bonds are accelerated owing to a dissimilarity effect of the distinct metal atoms co‐occupying octahedral sites. The CoIIFeIIICoIIIO4 spinel with the Fe and Co co‐occupying inverse structure exhibits an excellent ORR activity, which even exceeds that of the state‐of‐the‐art commercial Pt/C by 42 mV in alkaline medium.
