Abstract
Avoiding the stacking of active sites in catalyst structural design is a promising route for realizing active oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, using a CoFe Prussian blue analoge cube with hollow structure (C-CoFe PBA) as a derived support, a highly effective Ni2P-FeP4-Co2P catalyst with a larger specific surface area is reported. Benefiting from the abundant active sites and fast charge transfer capability of the phosphide nanosheets, the Ni2P-FeP4-Co2P catalyst in 1m KOH requires only overpotentials of 248 and 277mV to reach current density of 10 and 50mA cm-2 and outperforms the commercial catalyst RuO2 and most reported non-noble metal OER catalysts. In addition, the two-electrode system consisting of Ni2P-FeP4-Co2P and Pt/C is able to achieve a current density of 10 and 50mA cm-2 at 1.529 and 1.65V. This work provides more ideas and directions for synthesizing transition metal catalysts for efficient OER performance.
