Abstract:Coral‐type cobalt nanostructures are electrodeposited on a dopamine‐modified nickel plate under ordinary conditions. The deposited electrodes are studied for both oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) as bifunctional electrodes for overall water splitting. These electrodes show overpotentials of 300 and 290 mV for OER and HER respectively, at a benchmark current density of 10 mA cm−2. In case of OER, the absence of dopamine gives higher overpotential and exfoliation of Co coatin… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
