Controlled synthesis of three-dimensional branched Mo–NiCoP@NiCoP/NiXCoYH2PO2 core/shell nanorod heterostructures for high-performance water and urea electrolysis

Electronic interaction of ruthenium species on bimetallic phosphide for superior electrocatalytic hydrogen generation

“…53,54 Notably, the existence of Co 0 peak can be observed at 778.1 eV for both NiCoP/NF and Ru-NiCoP/NF samples. 55 The XPS spectra of Ni 2p are shown in Fig. 3b.…”

A bi-functional air electrode developed from a dual-MOF strategy for high-performance zinc–air batteries

“…Transition metal phosphides, NiP nanoparticles, in particular, have arisen as favourable electrocatalysts with excellent OER activity in alkaline solutions. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Actually, they are recognized as OER pre-catalysts, which undergo an in situ transformation to the corresponding oxides and oxyhydroxides via anodic oxidation. [14][15][16] The partially charged Ni d+ and P dÀ atoms in NiP tend to generate OER active NiOOH species and phosphate-based phases, respectively.…”
