Abstract

Due to outstanding performance in energy conversion and storage, transition metal sulfides as well as hollow microstructure have become possible alternatives to noble metal electrocatalyst and become a hot issue. Therefore, we successfully synthesized Fe3S4@NiS hollow nanospheres (HSs) by a one-step solvothermal process, applied in oxygen evolution reactions (OER) to provide sustainable energy. Owing to particular microstructure and proper elemental composition ratio, Fe3S4@NiS HSs (partially been oxidized) show an outstanding OER performance with the overpotential and Tafel slope of only 338 mV at 10 mA cm−2 and 73 mV dec−1 in 0.1 M KOH solution, respectively.
