主 题:overall water splitting MXene Co-CoO heterojunction electrocatalysis
摘 要:Development of cost-effective and highly-efficient bifunctional hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)and oxygen evolution reaction(OER)catalysts is crucial for overall water splitting in practical ***,we proposed a novel non-noble metal bifunctional,HER/OER electrocatalyst by synergistically coupling a dual-active Co-based heterojunction(Co-CoO)with high conductive and stable two-dimensional Ti_(3)C_(2)-MXene(defined as Co-CoO/Ti^(3)CrMXene).A series of characterizations and theoretical calculations verify that the synergistic effect of metallic Co with HER activity and Coo with OER performance leads to superb bifunctional catalytic performance,and Ti_(3)C_(2)-MXene can enhance electrical conductivity and prevent the aggregation of the Co-based catalysts,thereby improving both the activity arid ***-Co0/Ti_(3)C_(2)-MXene presents low onset potential(11onse1)of 8 mV and,Tafel slope of 47 mV·dec^(-1) for HER(close to that of Pt/C)and 17onset of 196 mV and Tafel slope of 47 mV·dec^(-1) for OER(superior to:that of Ru02).Assembled as an electrolyzer,Co-CoO/Ti_(3)C_(2)-MXene shows a low voltage of 1.55 V at 10 mA·cm^(-2),high Faradaic efficiency and remarkable *** can be driven by a solar cell of-1.55 V for consecutive production of hydrogen and oxygen gases.
