Plasma-Engraved Co3 O4 Nanosheets with Oxygen Vacancies and High Surface Area for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction.
TL;DR: An efficient Co3 O4 -based OER electrocatalyst is designed by a plasma-engraving strategy, which not only produced higher surface area, but also generated oxygen vacancies on Co 3 O4 surface with more Co(2+) formed to improve the electronic conductivity and create more active defects for OER.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facile Synthesis of Black Phosphorus: an Efficient Electrocatalyst for the Oxygen Evolving Reaction
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that BP can be prepared by a facile method and may be applied as an electrocatalyst and shows advanced electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER).
Journal ArticleDOI
N-doped nanoporous Co3O4 nanosheets with oxygen vacancies as oxygen evolving electrocatalysts
TL;DR: For the first time, the simultaneous nitrogen doping and etching of Co3O4 nanosheets are realized to produce N-doped nanoporous Co3 O4 nanOSheets with oxygen vacancies by N2 plasma, resulting in excellent electrocatalytic activity for the OER.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transforming Co3O4 nanosheets into porous N-doped CoxOy nanosheets with oxygen vacancies for the oxygen evolution reaction
TL;DR: In this article, the porous CoxOy nanosheets with N-doping and oxygen vacancies were obtained by etching Co3O4 with NH3 plasma, and the obtained sample has a lower Tafel slope of 68.5mV dec−1 than the pristine CO4 nanoSheets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Edge-selectively phosphorus-doped few-layer graphene as an efficient metal-free electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction
TL;DR: G-P catalyst reached a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at a small overpotential of 330 mV for the OER with a Tafel slope as low as 62 mV dec-1, which is superior to most of the carbon-based electrocatalysts reported to date.
