Cobalt oxides with abundant defects, including those with fully exposed active sites and abundant oxygen vacancies, exhibit superb catalytic activities towards oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, we report a facile in-situ electrochemical self-optimization strategy to produce carbon-fiber-supported defective CoOx (E-CoOx/CF), in which the partial self-dissolution of acidic oxides under alkaline OER operational conditions and releasing of in-situ generated oxygen molecules are taken as advantages for reconstruction of Co species with abundant defects, Co2+ and oxygen vacancies. The resultant E-CoOx/CF can achieve 10 mA cm(-2) at a low overpotential of 249 mV with a remarkable stability (> 100 h without performance decay). Moreover, this electrochemical etching method can also be extended to the preparation of highly active transition metal nickel oxides for enhanced OER. This study represents a new yet efficient strategy for rationally designing and developing advanced transition metal oxides for various electrochemical applications and beyond.
