The simultaneous integration of electronic regulation and architectural engineering in one electrocatalyst provides a powerful leverage to enhance the electrocatalytic performance for water splitting. A novel nanoarray structure with abundant heterointerfaces and well-designed caps is fabricated, which greatly increases the exposure of active sites and promotes mass/electron transport. Moreover, the grafted caps improve the hydrophilicity/aerophobicity, facilitating water affinity and gas bubble release. The obtained Sn4P3/Co2P SCNAs exhibit exceptional electrocatalytic performances for the HER and OER, as well as excellent stability and reversibility in practical water electrolysis, showing great potential for practical applications.
The simultaneous integration of electronic regulation and architectural engineering in one electrocatalyst represents a powerful leverage to concurrently boost the electrocatalytic performance towards overall water splitting. We herein rationally fabricate Sn4P(3)/Co2P stalk - cap -typed nanoarrays (Sn4P(3)/Co2P SCNAs) with abundant heterointerfaces and elaborately implanted caps . The nanoarrayed structure can substantially enlarge the exposure of active sites and promote the mass/electron transport, thus accelerating the reaction kinetics. Moreover, the purposely grafted caps are beneficial to increase the hydrophilicity/aerophobicity, which facilitate the water affinity and release of generated gas bubbles. Accordingly, the obtained Sn4P3/Co2P SCNAs deliver exceptional electrocatalytic performances towards the HER and OER, as reflected by the over potentials of 45.4 and 280.4 mV at 10 mA cm(-2), respectively. More impressively, the two-electrode electrolyzer assembled by freestanding Sn4P(3)/Co2P SCNAs requires a cell voltage of 1.56 V at 10 mA cm(-2) and exhibits superior stability and full reversibility, holding great potential in practical water electrolysis.
