Rapid Joule-Heating Synthesis for Manufacturing High-Entropy Oxides as Efficient Electrocatalysts

Han Wu et al.

Summary: High-entropy oxide (HEO) with multiple principal elements has great potential in various fields. However, the traditional heating synthesis method is not suitable for rapid screening of properties, and the current elemental combinations are highly limited. In this study, a rapid synthesis method for HEO was developed through Joule heating, and new elemental combinations of high-entropy rocksalt oxides (HERSO), high-entropy spinel oxides (HESO), and high-entropy perovskite oxide (HEPO) were successfully synthesized. The newly synthesized HERSO showed improved OER activity due to the synergy of multiple components. This research provides a broad platform for the development of high-entropy materials and catalysts.
