Morphology-Controllable Synthesis of Cobalt Telluride Branched Nanostructures on Carbon Fiber Paper as Electrocatalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Abstract: Cobalt telluride branched nanostructures on carbon fiber paper (CFP) with two different morphologies were synthesized via solution-based conversion reaction. Both the CoTe2 with nanodendrite and CoTe with nanosheet morphologies on the CoTe2 nanotube (CoTe2 NDs/CoTe2 NTs and CoTe NSs/CoTe2 NTs) supported by CFP exhibit high activities toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Particularly, the CoTe NSs/CoTe2 NTs only require an overpotential of 230.0 mV to deliver the current density of 100 mA cm(-2) in acid so… Show more

“…Figure 6(a) shows the high-resolution spectra of Co 2p region for CoTe 2 nanostructures with different NaOH concentrations. The main peaks of Co 2p 3/2 and Co 2p 1/2 are located at about 781 eV and 796 eV, respectively, as expected for the cobalt telluride nanostructures [3,19]. Figure 6(b) shows the high-resolution spectra of the Te 3d region.…”

“…The peaks located at7 77.3 and 779.8 eV correspond to the Co 2p 3/2 binding energy,w hereas 792.2 and 795.5 eV correspond to the Co 2p 1/2 binding energy.T he deconvolution of Co 2p signals ( Figure 3a)r eveals that the surface of CoTe 2 comprises Co 0 and CoO species in addition to the CoTe 2 phase. [13] Using Co 2p 3/2 binding energies as reference, the signals of our CoTe 2 sample align with the literature valuesf or CoTea nd CoTe 2 which have been reportedt ob e within ar ange of 778.5 and 781.2 eV encompassing nanostructures, films, or hybrids. [12] The Co 2p 3/2 signal at 779.8 eV is deconvoluted into CoTe 2 at 779.6 eV and CoO at 780.7 eV.P arallel to this, the Co 2p 1/2 signal at 795.5 eV also has contribution from the CoTe 2 and CoO species.…”

“…The presenceo fe lementalC oo nt he surface is confirmed by the Co 2p 3/2 and 2p 1/2 binding energies at 777.3 and 792.2 eV respectively. [13,14] The proximity in signals may be attributed to the valence state of Co. Akin to CoTewith an oxidation state of Co 2 + , [14b, c] ad ivalent oxidation state of Co has been suggested for CoTe 2 in as eparate study on aC oTe 2 / carbon nanotube hybrid. Formation of surfaceo xides like CoO is ar esult of the susceptibility of CoTe 2 towardso xidation.…”
