Transition metal borides, carbides, pnictides, and chalcogenides (X-ides) have emerged as a class of materials for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Because of their high earth abundance, electrical conductivity, and OER performance, these electrocatalysts have the potential to enable the practical application of green energy conversion and storage. Under OER potentials, X-ide electrocatalysts demonstrate various degrees of oxidation resistance due to their differences in chemical composition, crystal structure, and morphology. Depending on their resistance to oxidation, these catalysts will fall into one of three post-OER electrocatalyst categories: fully oxidized oxide/(oxy)hydroxide material, partially oxidized core@shell structure, and unoxidized material. In the past ten years (from 2013 to 2022), over 890 peer-reviewed research papers have focused on X-ide OER electrocatalysts. Previous review papers have provided limited conclusions and have omitted the significance of “catalytically active sites/species/phases” in X-ide OER electrocatalysts. In this review, a comprehensive summary of (i) experimental parameters (e.g., substrates, electrocatalyst loading amounts, geometric overpotentials, Tafel slopes, etc.) and (ii) electrochemical stability tests and post-analyses in X-ide OER electrocatalyst publications from 2013 to 2022 is provided. Both mono and polyanion X-ides are discussed and classified with respect to their material transformation during the OER. Special analytical techniques employed to study X-ide reconstruction are also evaluated. Additionally, future challenges and questions yet to be answered are provided in each section. This review aims to provide researchers with a toolkit to approach X-ide OER electrocatalyst research and to showcase necessary avenues for future investigation.

“…Recently, the electrodeposition method has received a lot of attention in the preparation of self-supporting electrodes due to its simple equipment and adjustable operation process. Various TM-based materials, including alloys, heterostructure compounds, or high-entropy compounds, have been anchored directly to the surface of the replaceable working substrates, avoiding the use of additional adhesives to improve the structure stability. – For instance, NiCoP@NiS nanoarrays with a core–shell structure were developed by a simple electrodeposition method, which exhibited unique advantages of improved electron transfer and reaction kinetics for catalysis . In addition, the electrodeposition synthesis of self-supporting NiCoFe nanotube arrays was reported by Yang’s group, who achieved faster charge-mass-transfer ability due to the unique electrode structure .…”

Energy-saving water electrolysis is an ideal strategy to realize the grid-scale generation of hydrogen fuel, especially by coupling with an alternating hydrazine oxidation reaction (HzOR). However, the lack of selfsupporting electrodes with excellent bifunctional performance is the key to the problem of high operating voltages. Herein, a unique alternating electrodeposition strategy is first developed to design a (P−Co/Ni 3 P) A3 /NF (NF = nickel foam) electrode, which has a hierarchical heterostructure for more active sites and robust interface interactions, resulting in excellent bifunctional activity. The (P−Co/Ni 3 P) A3 /NF electrode exhibits small potentials of −10 and −79 mV at 10 mA cm −2 as well as low Tafel slopes of 45 and 1.8 mV dec −1 for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and HzOR, respectively. Inspiringly, an extremely small-cell voltage of 50 mV is required to realize a high current density of 300 mA cm −2 in the twoelectrode device, which is 1.77 V lower than that in the overall water splitting (1.82 V) system. Density functional theory calculations confirm that the construction of the P−Co/Ni 3 P heterostructure achieves the improvement of the calculated adsorption energy of the H 2 O molecule (ΔG Hd 2 O ), ΔG H* , as well as the dehydrogenation kinetics of reaction intermediates, thereby accelerating the overall electrocatalytic activity of HER/HzOR. Our strategy suggests a possibility for the development of other material synthesis and performance optimization for hydrogen production.

Engineering efficient catalyst interfaces offers a constructive way to boost activity and stability in the field of water electrolysis. Here, unique core–shell FeCoS@CoMoP heterostructure nanoparticles are rationally fabricated on a porous Ni foam through hydrothermal and electrodeposition methods. The as-prepared electrocatalyst exhibits efficient pH-universal hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity along with a satisfactory alkaline oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance, extremely small overpotentials, and Tafel values, achieving prominent durability and stability. A series of structural characterizations help identify the reactive centers during the catalytic procedure and the tight interfacial interaction between the shell and core materials. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the surface electrodeposition of CoMoP not only tunes the d-band center but also obviously decreases the Gibbs free energies in the HER/OER processes. It can be expected that the three-dimensional self-supported catalytic system will hold strong promise for effective water splitting, energy storage, and energy transformation devices.
