“…[18] It was proposed that doping of Mn 2 + could stabilize the lower oxidation state of Ni and promotet he formation of active b-NiOOH along with activation of the basal plane of NiFe-LDH. Furthermore, the OER activity of LDHs can also be enhanced by hybridization with carbonaceous materials such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), [19] reduced graphene oxide (rGO), [20] macro/mesoporousc arbon) [21] or non-carbonaceousm aterials, such as metal oxides (NiO, [22] Co 3 O 4, [23] and NiCo 2 O 4 ), [24] metal phos-phides( Ni 5 P 4 /NiP 2, [25] Cu 3 P, [26] and NiCoP), [27] metal sulfides (NiCo 2 S 4 ), [28] and metal selenides (NiSe x ) [29] owing to synergistic effects and improved conductivity arising from interfacial electron transfer.…”
