Jiaye Yang et al.

Summary: Designing low-cost and efficient non-noble-metal bifunctional electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is crucial for water splitting. In this study, a self-standing bifunctional electrode with MoS2-CoS2 heteronanosheet arrays on porous carbon microtube textile (MoS2-CoS2@PCMT) was developed for alkaline overall water splitting, showing lower overpotentials for HER and OER compared to Pt/C@PCMT and RuO2@PCMT at higher current density. The results highlight the importance of self-standing electrode structure and coupling of transition metal dichalcogenides for improving electrocatalyst performance in water splitting.

Enriched oxygen vacancy promoted heteroatoms (B, P, N, and S) doped CeO2: Challenging electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline medium

A. Rajapriya et al.

Summary: Recent research has focused on developing efficient anodic electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in response to the increasing worldwide energy consumption. Cerium oxide (CeO2) has shown promise as an electrocatalyst for OER, but stability issues have hindered practical application. By doping CeO2 with heteroatoms like nitrogen, boron, phosphorus, and sulfur, researchers have improved electronic conductivity, increased reactive sites, and enhanced electrochemical catalytic activity for water oxidation, leading to ideal OER performance. Additionally, sulfur-doped CeO2 has demonstrated excellent stability and cost-effective synthesis methods, making it an attractive option for OER electrode preparation.
