Abstract

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a crucial process in electrochemical water splitting, a promising technology to renewably yield hydrogen gas from water. Designing and developing earth‐abundant, efficient, and stable OER electrocatalysts to replace the most widely used but scarce RuO ₂ and IrO ₂ are thus of critical interest. Recently, ABO ₃ ‐structured perovskite oxides, especially rare‐earth nickelates, are extensively studied for their potential use as OER electrocatalysts. In particular, the epitaxial synthesis of complex oxide thin films allows flexible and precise control over the materials so that their structure–stability–property relationships can be established. Using nickelate thin films as model systems, this review illustrates how epitaxial design allows researchers to test different hypotheses and proposed descriptors, as well as formulate new design principles. Following a brief introduction to the background of OER mechanisms, proposed activity descriptors, and synthesis methods, various epitaxial design strategies are surveyed including strain tuning, composition control, surface termination/orientation selection, defect engineering, and interface design. These have led to precise control over the atomic structures and electronic properties of nickelates which in turn determine their electrochemical performance. Finally, the remaining challenges and perspectives toward a deeper understanding and use of complex oxides as OER catalysts are discussed.
