The sustainable and scalable production of hydrogen through hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen through oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water splitting demands efficient and robust electrocatalysts. Currently, state‐of‐the‐art electrocatalysts of Pt and IrO2/RuO2 exhibit the benchmark catalytic activity toward HER and OER, respectively. However, expanding their practical application is hindered by their exorbitant price and scarcity. Therefore, the development of alternative effective electrocatalysts for water splitting is crucial. In the last few decades, substantial effort has been devoted to the development of alternative HER/OER and water splitting catalysts based on various transition metals (including Fe, Co, Ni, Mo, and atomic Pt) which show promising catalytic activities and durability. In this review, after a brief introduction and basic mechanism of HER/OER, the authors systematically discuss the recent progress in design, synthesis, and application of single atom and cluster‐based HER/OER and water splitting catalysts. Moreover, the crucial factors that can tune the activity of catalysts toward HER/OER and water splitting such as morphology, crystal defects, hybridization of metals with nonmetals, heteroatom doping, alloying, and formation of metals inside graphitic layered materials are discussed. Finally, the existing challenges and future perspectives for improving the performance of electrocatalysts for water splitting are addressed. 相似文献

Over 17% Efficiency Stand‐Alone Solar Water Splitting Enabled by Perovskite‐Silicon Tandem Absorbers

Realizing solar‐to‐hydrogen (STH) efficiencies close to 20% using low‐cost semiconductors remains a major step toward accomplishing the practical viability of photoelectrochemical (PEC) hydrogen generation technologies. Dual‐absorber tandem cells combining inexpensive semiconductors are a promising strategy to achieve high STH efficiencies at a reasonable cost. Here, a perovskite photovoltaic biased silicon (Si) photoelectrode is demonstrated for highly efficient stand‐alone solar water splitting. A p+nn+ ‐Si/Ti/Pt photocathode is shown to present a remarkable photon‐to‐current efficiency of 14.1% under biased condition and stability over three days under continuous illumination. Upon pairing with a semitransparent mixed perovskite solar cell of an appropriate bandgap with state‐of‐the‐art performance, an unprecedented 17.6% STH efficiency is achieved for self‐driven solar water splitting. Modeling and analysis of the dual‐absorber PEC system reveal that further work into replacing the noble‐metal catalyst materials with earth‐abundant elements and improvement of perovskite fill factor will pave the way for the realization of a low‐cost high‐efficiency PEC system. 相似文献

The development of highly efficient and durable electrocatalysts is crucial for overall water splitting. Herein, the in situ scaffolding formation of 3D Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) on a variety of 2D or 1D metal hydroxides/oxides to fabricate hierarchical nanostructures is first demonstrated. Typically, cobalt hydroxide or oxide nanoarrays are used as the precursor and structural oriented template for the subsequent growth of 3D PBA nanocubes. The mechanism study reveals that the interfacial scaffolding process can be reversibly controlled via the in situ ion exchange process with adjusting coordination ions. Thus, the facile, versatile strategy can extend to successfully fabricate a variety of hierarchical PBA‐based nanostructures including on cobalt fluoride hydroxide, copper hydroxide, monometal or bimetal nickel–cobalt hydroxides, cobalt oxide, and manganese oxide nanosheets with structural tailor‐ability and chemical diversity. More interestingly, the metal nitride derivatives obtained via controlled calcination process exhibit good electrocatalytic activity for water splitting with low overpotentials, and remarkable durability for 1200 h, thanks to the superior intrinsic activity of bimetal nature and the scrupulous hierarchical structure. This versatile strategy provides a paradigm for rational design of PBA‐based functional nanomaterials, which is highly promising in energy conversion, storage, and electrocatalytic fields. 相似文献

The practical industralization of water splitting needs high‐efficient and cost‐effective catalytic electrodes. A versatile and scalable solution‐processing method to prepare such a catalytic electrode with high flexibility and conductivity is introduced. This preparation method is applicable for a wide variety of metal species and takes graphene sheets as metal carriers and film‐forming agents, resulting in 100% utilization of raw materials. The obtained graphene–bimetal film has excellent comprehensive performance with high areal activity and superior turnover frequency at a low mass loading of 0.05 mg cm?2, as well as a record‐high mass activity for oxygen or hydrogen evolution. The assembled two‐electrode configuration can be used in a practical full water splitting system, requiring a cell voltage of 1.58 or 1.50 V at 30 or 70 °C to afford a current density of 10 mA cm?2; it also exhibits a long‐term durability over 200 h, superior to most of the reported systems for the same purpose. This work provides a new platform for large‐scale and high‐yield production of electrocatalysts and also uncovers the design principles of catalytic electrodes with high mass activity toward industralization. 相似文献

Organolead halide perovskite materials have demonstrated great potential in the solar cells field owing to their excellent optoelectronic properties. However, the instability issue of the perovskites impedes the translation of their attractive features for the solar fuel production such as photoelectrochemical H2 production from water splitting. Herein, CH3NH3PbI3 a photocathode with a sandwich‐like structure is fabricated with a general and scalable approach toward addressing this issue. The photocathode exhibits an onset potential at 0.95 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and a photocurrent density of ?18 mA cm?2 at 0 V versus RHE with an impressive ideal ratiometric power‐saved efficiency of 7.63%. More impressively, the photocathode retains good stability under 12 h continuous illumination in water at wide pH range. This performance is much superior to that of the best perovskite‐based photoelectrode ever reported. 相似文献

A homologous Ni–Co based nanowire system, consisting of both nickel cobalt oxide and nickel cobalt sulfide nanowires, is developed for efficient, complementary water splitting. The spinel‐type nickel cobalt oxide (NiCo2O4) nanowires are hydrothermally synthesized and can serve as an excellent oxygen evolution reaction catalyst. Subsequent sulfurization of the NiCo2O4 nanowires leads to the formation of pyrite‐type nickel cobalt sulfide (Ni0.33Co0.67S2) nanowires. Due to the 1D nanowire morphology and enhanced charge transport capability, the Ni0.33Co0.67S2 nanowires function as an efficient, stable, and robust nonnoble metal electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), substantially exceeding CoS2 or NiS2 nanostructures synthesized under similar methods. The Ni0.33Co0.67S2 nanowires exhibit low onset potential of ?65, ?39, and ?50 mV versus reversible hydrogen electrode, Tafel slopes of 44, 68, and 118 mV dec?1 at acidic, neutral, and basic conditions, respectively, and excellent stability, comparable to the best reported non‐noble metal‐based HER catalysts. Furthermore, the homologous Ni0.33Co0.67S2 nanowires and NiCo2O4 nanowires are assembled into an all‐nanowire based water splitting electrolyzer with a current density of 5 mA cm?2 at a voltage as 1.65 V, thus suggesting a unique homologous, earth abundant material system for water splitting. 相似文献

Currently, it is still a significant challenge to simultaneously boost various reactions by one electrocatalyst with high activity, excellent durability, as well as low cost. Herein, hybrid trifunctional electrocatalysts are explored via a facile one‐pot strategy toward an efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The catalysts are rationally designed to be composed by FeCo nanoparticles encapsuled in graphitic carbon films, Co2P nanoparticles, and N,P‐codoped carbon nanofiber networks. The FeCo nanoparticles and the synergistic effect from Co2P and FeCo nanoparticles make the dominant contributions to the ORR, OER, and HER activities, respectively. Their bifunctional activity parameter (?E) for ORR and OER is low to 0.77 V, which is much smaller than those of most nonprecious metal catalysts ever reported, and comparable with state‐of‐the‐art Pt/C and RuO2 (0.78 V). Accordingly, the as‐assembled Zn–air battery exhibits a high power density of 154 mW cm?2 with a low charge–discharge voltage gap of 0.83 V (at 10 mA cm?2) and excellent stability. The as‐constructed overall water‐splitting cell achieves a current density of 10 mA cm?2 (at 1.68 V), which is comparable to the best reported trifunctional catalysts. 相似文献

By employing in situ reduction of metal precursor and metal‐assisted carbon etching process, this study achieves a series of ultrafine transition metal‐based nanoparticles (Ni–Fe, Ni–Mo) embedded in N‐doped carbon, which are found efficient catalysts for electrolytic water splitting. The as‐prepared hybrid materials demonstrate outstanding catalytic activities as non‐noble metal electrodes rendered by the synergistic effect of bimetal elements and N‐dopants, the improved electrical conductivity, and hydrophilism. Ni/Mo2C@N‐doped porous carbon (NiMo‐polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)) and NiFe@N‐doped carbon (NiFe‐PVP) produce low overpotentials of 130 and 297 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm?2 as catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction, respectively. In addition, these binder‐free electrodes show long‐term stability. Overall water splitting is also demonstrated based on the couple of NiMo‐PVP||NiFe‐PVP catalyzer. This represents a simple and effective synthesis method toward a new type of nanometal–carbon hybrid electrodes. 相似文献

The most efficient electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is a Pt‐based catalyst, but its high cost and nonperfect efficiency hinder wide‐ranging industrial/technological applications. Here, an electrocatalyst of both ruthenium (Ru) single atoms (SAs) and N‐doped‐graphitic(GN)‐shell‐covered nitrided‐Ru nanoparticles (NPs) (having a Ru‐Nx shell) embedded on melamine‐derived GN matrix { 1 : [Ru(SA)+Ru(NP)@RuNx@GN]/GN}, which exhibits superior HER activity in both acidic and basic media, is presented. In 0.5 m H2SO4/1 m KOH solutions, 1 shows diminutive “negative overpotentials” (?η = |η| = 10/7 mV at 10 mA cm?2, lowest ever) and high exchange current densities (4.70/1.96 mA cm?2). The remarkable HER performance is attributed to the near‐zero free energies for hydrogen adsorption/desorption on Ru(SAs) and the increased conductivity of melamine‐derived GN sheets by the presence of nitrided‐Ru(NPs). The nitridation process forming nitrided‐Ru(NPs), which are imperfectly covered by a GN shell, allows superb long‐term operation durability. The catalyst splits water into molecular oxygen and hydrogen at 1.50/1.40 V (in 0.1 m HClO4/1 m KOH), demonstrating its potential as a ready‐to‐use, highly effective energy device for industrial applications. 相似文献

One of the crucial parameters dictating the efficiency of photoelectrochemical water‐splitting is the semiconductor band edge alignment with respect to hydrogen and oxygen redox potentials. Despite the importance of metal oxides in their use as photoelectrodes, studies to control the band edge alignment in aqueous solution have been limited predominantly to compound semiconductors with modulation ranges limited to a few hundred mV. The ability to modulate the flat band potential of oxide photoanodes by as much as 1.3 V, using the insertion of subsurface electrostatic dipoles near a Nb‐doped SrTiO3/aqueous electrolyte interface is reported. The tunable range achieved far exceeds previous reports in any semiconductor/aqueous electrolyte system and suggests a general design strategy for highly efficient oxide photoelectrodes. 相似文献

Control over the topography of semiconducting materials can lead to enhanced performances in photoelectrochemical related applications. One means of implementing this is through direct patterning of metal‐based substrates, though this is inadequately developed. Conventional techniques for patterned fabrication commonly involve technologically demanding and tedious processes. 3D printing, a form of additive fabrication, enables creation of a 3D object by deposition of successive layers of material via computer control. In this work, the feasibility of fabricating metal‐based 3D printed photoelectrodes is explored. Electrodes comprised of conical arrays are fabricated and the performance for photoelectrochemical water splitting is further enhanced by the direct growth of TiO2 nanotubes on this platform. 3D metal printing provides a flexible and versatile approach for the design and fabrication of novel electrode structures. 相似文献

Large‐scale industrial application of solar‐driven water splitting has called for the development of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts that deliver high catalytic activity and stability. Here it is shown that an efficient OER catalytic substrate can be developed by roll‐to‐roll fabrication of electrodeposited Ni‐Fe foils, followed by anodization. An amorphous oxyhydroxide layer directly formed on Ni‐Fe foils exhibits high catalytic activity toward water oxidation in 1 m KOH solution, which requires an overpotential of 0.251 V to reach current density of 10 mA cm–2. The developed catalytic electrode shows the best OER activity among catalysts with film structure. The catalyst also shows prolonged stability at vigorous gas evolution condition for 36 h. To demonstrate the monolithic photoassisted water splitting device, an amorphous silicon solar cell is fabricated on Ni‐Fe catalytic substrate, resulting in lowering OER overpotential under light illumination. This monolithic device is the first demonstration that the OER catalytic substrates and the solar cells are integrated and can be easily applied for industrial scale solar‐driven water electrolysis. 相似文献

The controllable synthesis of single‐crystallized iron‐cobalt carbonate hydroxide nanosheets array on 3D conductive Ni foam (FCCH/NF) as a monolithic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) bifunctional electrocatalyst for full water splitting is described. The results demonstrate that the incorporation of Fe can effectively tune the morphology, composition, electronic structure, and electrochemical active surface area of the electrocatalysts, thus greatly enhancing the intrinsic electrocatalytic activity. The optimal electrocatalyst (F0.25C1CH/NF) can deliver 10 and 1000 mA cm?2 at very small overpotentials of 77 and 256 mV for HER and 228 and 308 mV for OER in 1.0 m KOH without significant interference from gas evolution. The F0.25C1CH‐based two‐electrode alkaline water electrolyzer only requires cell voltages of 1.45 and 1.52 V to achieve current densities of 10 and 500 mA cm?2. The results demonstrate that such fascinating electrocatalytic activity can be ascribed to the increase in the catalytic active surface area, facilitated electron and mass transport properties, and the synergistic interactions because of the incorporation of Fe. 相似文献

Alongside rare‐earth metals, Ni, Fe, Co, Cu are some of the critical materials that will be in huge demand thanks to growth in clean‐energy sector. Herein scrap stainless steel wires (SSW) from worn‐out tires are employed as a support material for catalyst integration in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In addition, SSW by corrosion engineering is exercised as an in situ formed freestanding robust electrode for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). By superficial corrosion of SSW, inherent active species are unmasked in the form of Ni/FeOOH nanocrystallites displaying efficient water oxidation by reaching 500 mA cm?2 at low overpotential (η500) of 287 mV in 1 m KOH. Similarly, cathode scrap SSW with active (alloy) coatings of MoNi4 catalyzes the HER at η‐200 = 77 mV, with a low activation energy (Ea = 16.338 kJ mol?1) and high durability of 150 h. Promisingly, when used in industrial conditions, 5 m KOH, 343 K, these electrodes demonstrate abnormal activity by yielding high anodic and cathodic current density of 1000 mA cm?2 at η = 233 mV and η = 161 mV, respectively. This work may inspire researchers to explore and reutilize high‐demand metals from scrap for addressing critical material shortfalls in clean‐energy technologies. 相似文献

Construction of well‐defined metal–organic framework precursor is vital to derive highly efficient transition metal–carbon‐based electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water splitting. Herein, a novel strategy involving an in situ transformation of ultrathin cobalt layered double hydroxide into 2D cobalt zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF‐67) nanosheets grafted with 3D ZIF‐67 polyhedra supported on the surface of carbon cloth (2D/3D ZIF‐67@CC) precursor is proposed. After a low‐temperature pyrolysis, this precursor can be further converted into hybrid composites composed of ultrafine cobalt nanoparticles embedded within 2D N‐doped carbon nanosheets and 3D N‐doped hollow carbon polyhedra (Co@N‐CS/N‐HCP@CC). Experimental and density functional theory calculations results indicate that such composites have the advantages of a large number of accessible active sites, accelerated charge/mass transfer ability, the synergistic effect of components as well as an optimal water adsorption energy change. As a result, the obtained Co@N‐CS/N‐HCP@CC catalyst requires overpotentials of only 66 and 248 mV to reach a current density of 10 mA cm?2 for HER and OER in 1.0 m KOH, respectively. Remarkably, it enables an alkali‐electrolyzer with a current density of 10 mA cm?2 at a low cell voltage of 1.545 V, superior to that of the IrO2@CC||Pt/C@CC couple (1.592 V). 相似文献

An efficient way to combat the energy crisis and the greenhouse gas effect of fossil fuels is the production of hydrogen fuel from solar‐driven water splitting reaction. Here, this study presents a p‐type ZrO2 nanoplate‐decorated ZrO2 nanowire photocathode with a high photoconversion efficiency that makes it potentially viable for commercial solar H2 production. The composition of oxygen vacancy defects, low charge carrier transport property, and high specific surface area of these as‐grown hierarchical nanowires are further improved by an hydrofluoric acid (HF) treatment, which causes partial delamination and produces a thin amorphous ZrO2 layer on the surface of the as‐grown nanostructured film. The presence of different types of oxygen vacancies (neutral, singly charged, and doubly charged defects) and their compositional correlation to the Zrx+ oxidation states (4 > x > 2) are found to affect the charge transfer process, the p‐type conductivity, and the photocatalytic activity of the ZrO2 nanostructured film. The resulting photocathode provides the highest overall photocurrent (?42.3 mA cm?2 at 0 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)) among all the photocathodes reported to date, and an outstanding 3.1% half‐cell solar‐to‐hydrogen conversion efficiency with a Faradaic efficiency of 97.8%. Even more remarkable is that the majority of the photocurrent (69%) is produced in the visible light region. 相似文献
