Cobalt phosphide nanoparticles supported within network of N-doped carbon nanotubes as a multifunctional and scalable electrocatalyst for water splitting

Carbon-Based Composites as Electrocatalysts for Oxygen Evolution Reaction in Alkaline Media

“…The activity toward oxygen evolution reaction can even be boosted by designing multi-component nitrides, such as porous Co 3 FeN x /N-doped carbon nanoleaf arrays supported by carbon cloth (named Co 3 FeN x /NC LACC) [144]. Hierarchical structure and heterointerfaces between Co Most recently, growing interest in terms of carbon-supported OER catalysts is related to transition-metal phosphides (TMPs), mostly due to their relatively low price and earthabundance reserves [81,[131][132][133]139,[141][142][143]147,148,200,201,[203][204][205][206][207][208][209][210]. The metal phosphides are thermodynamically less stable than corresponding metal hydroxides/oxides under oxidation potentials.…”

Highly active sites of NiVB nanoparticles dispersed onto graphene nanosheets towards efficient and pH-universal overall water splitting

“…Transition metal based oxides, chalcogenides, nitrides, phosphides, sulfides and their hybrids have been vastly studied as electrocatalysts [14,[16][17][18][19][20]. Particularly, Ni based materials and their composites have received great attention owing to their high earth-abundance and acceptable redox capacity, such as NiCoP/C [21], NiCo 2 O 4 [5], Ni-Fe-P [22], Fe 2 O 4 -NiOOH [23], NiCo 2 S 4 @NiFelayered double hydroxide (LDH) [24], Ni 2 P [25], CoNi 2 Se 4 [26], Co-Ni-B [27], NiCo-MOF-74/NF [28], NiV-LDH [11], NiFeV-LDH [29], and NiSe 2 [30].…”

Engineering nanointerface of molybdenum-based heterostructures to boost the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction

“…To this end, a wide variety of transition-metal materials have been explored as efficient nonprecious electrocatalysts for HER, such as transition metal chalcogenides, carbides, nitrides, and phosphides [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Especially, transition metal carbides (TMCs) have attracted extensive attention as efficient HER catalysts owing to its cost effective, wide pH stability, and Pt-like d-band electronic configuration [19,20].…”
