Tracking high-valent surface iron species in the oxygen evolution reaction on cobalt iron (oxy)hydroxides

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is the bottleneck reaction of water splitting, which can be used to generate green hydrogen from renewable electricity. Cobalt iron oxyhydroxides (CoFeOxHy) are among the most active OER catalysts in alkaline medium. How ...

Stability profiles of transition metal oxides in the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline medium

Xile Hu, Aliki Moysiadou

The electrochemical water splitting reaction can convert renewable electricity into clean hydrogen fuel. The efficiency of water splitting is limited to a large extent by the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Numerous transition metal oxides have b ...
