“…The additional C 1 s spectrum of Co(OH)S@C was deconvoluted into CÀC/C=C, CÀO, and C=O bonds at 283.5, 285.0, and 287.5 eV, respectively (Figure S5d). 39,40 Furthermore, the two peaks at 1355 and 1595 cm À1 in the Raman spectrum of Co(OH)S@C assigned to the Dand G-bands, respectively, exhibited the presence of a low-crystalline carbonaceous material (Figure S5e). 39,41 The characteristic FTIR spectral bands around 1399 and 572/1091 cm À1 , which were in accordance with the meta-lÀOH stretching vibration mode and the metalÀS bending vibration mode, respectively, shown in Figure S5f, confirms the formation of the Co(OH)S phase in Co(OH) S@C. 32,33 Moreover, the atomic ratio of Co/OH/S in Co(OH)S@C was 1/1.6/1.2, according to the energydispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) results (Figure S6).…”
