Designing active and stable oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts are vitally important to various energy conversion devices. Herein, we introduce elements Ni and Mn into (Co) (Co ) O nanosheets (NSs) at fixed geometrical sites, including Mn , Ni , and Ni , to optimize the initial geometrical structure and modulate the CoCo O surface from oxygen-excess to oxygen-deficiency. The pristine (Ni,Mn)-(Co) (Co ) O NSs shows excellent OER activity with an overpotential of 281.6 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm . Moreover, without damaging their initial activity, the activated (Act)-(Ni,Mn)-(Co) (Co ) O NSs after surface reconstruction exhibit long-term stability of 100 h under 10 mA cm , 50 mA cm , or even 100 mA cm . The optimal balance between electroactivity and stability leads to remarkable OER performances, providing a pivotal guideline for designing ideal electrocatalysts and inspiring more works to focus on the dynamic change of each occupation site component.
设计活性和稳定的析氧反应(OER)催化剂对于各种能量转换装置至关重要。在此,我们将元素Ni和Mn引入到(Co)(Co)O纳米片(NSs)的固定几何位点,包括Mn、Ni和Ni,以优化初始几何结构并将CoCoO表面从富氧调节为缺氧。原始的(Ni,Mn)-(Co)(Co)O NSs在电流密度为10 mA cm时表现出优异的OER活性,过电位为281.6 mV。此外,表面重构后的活化(Act)-(Ni,Mn)-(Co)(Co)O NSs在不损害其初始活性的情况下,在10 mA cm、50 mA cm甚至100 mA cm下表现出100 h的长期稳定性。电活性和稳定性之间的最佳平衡导致了卓越的OER性能,为设计理想的电催化剂提供了关键指导,并激励更多工作关注每个占据位点组分的动态变化。
