Abstract:The search for an effective, stable, and economically viable electrocatalyst for water splitting to replace expensive noble catalysts remains imperative. This investigation evaluates the impact of erbium oxide (Er 2 O 3 ) on the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity of transition metal oxides (TMOs), including nickel oxide (NiO), cobalt oxide (Co 3 O 4 ), and iron oxide (Fe 2 O 3 ). Introducing Er 2 O 3 nanoclusters into TMO nanostructures produces a heterostructure interface between Er 2 O 3 and the active… 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.
