Journal ArticleDOI

A perovskite oxide optimized for oxygen evolution catalysis from molecular orbital principles.

TL;DR: The high activity of BSCF was predicted from a design principle established by systematic examination of more than 10 transition metal oxides, which showed that the intrinsic OER activity exhibits a volcano-shaped dependence on the occupancy of the 3d electron with an eg symmetry of surface transition metal cations in an oxide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and Activities of Rutile IrO2 and RuO2 Nanoparticles for Oxygen Evolution in Acid and Alkaline Solutions

TL;DR: This study shows that these r-RuO2 and r-IrO2 NPs can serve as a benchmark in the development of active OER catalysts for electrolyzers, metal-air batteries, and photoelectrochemical water splitting applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Double perovskites as a family of highly active catalysts for oxygen evolution in alkaline solution.

TL;DR: The versatility of the perovskite structure is exploited to search for oxide catalysts that are both active and stable and can be explained by having the O p-band centre neither too close nor too far from the Fermi level, which is computed from ab initio studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of Oxygen Evolution during Water Oxidation on the Surface of Perovskite Oxide Catalysts

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that BSCF82 can quickly undergo amorphization of its surface at OER potentials, which is accompanied by reduced surface concentrations of Ba2+ and Sr2+ ions as well as increased pseudocapacitive and OER currents.
