Abstract

Designing hierarchical electrocatalysts with superior water oxidation performance is highly desirable for the production of renewable chemical fuels. Here, we report the development of a CuO@CoFe layered double hydroxide core-shell heterostructure supported on Cu foil (CuO@CoFe-LDH/CF) as a highly active catalyst electrode for water oxidation under mild alkaline conditions. In a 0.2 M carbonate buffer solution (pH 11), it only needs a small overpotential of 213 mV to achieve 10 mA cm-2, outperforming all reported electrocatalysts at comparable testing conditions. It also shows outstanding long-term durability.
