The sulfate-functionalized RuFeOx catalyst, with both sulfate anion and Fe cation doping, shows remarkable OER performance with low overpotential and enhanced stability. The sulfate dopants weaken the adsorption of *OO-H intermediate, while Fe dopants promote the deprotonation of water molecules for *OOH formation, contributing to the excellent OER activity and stability of S-RuFeOx.
The design of highly active, stable, and low-cost electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer remains a challenge. RuO2 shows relatively low cost but poor stability. Here, the critical role of sulfate anion doping in promoting OER activity and stability of RuO2 is reported. Coupled with the Fe cation doping, the sulfate-functionalized RuFeOx (S-RuFeOx) displays a remarkable OER performance with a low overpotential of 187 mV at 10 mA cm(-2) in acid, and much enhanced stability. The excellent OER activity of S-RuFeOx is attributed to the dual positive effects that the sulfate dopants weaken the adsorption of the *OO-H intermediate, and Fe dopants promote the deprotonation of chemisorbed water molecules to form *OOH. The enhanced stability is in part due to the sulfate dopants which stabilize the lattice oxygen. These results demonstrate that the anion and cation co-doped RuO2 is a promising candidate for highly efficient OER electrocatalysts.
