Co,N-codoped graphene as efficient electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction: Insight into the active centre

Journal Article Wang, Shumin ; Zhang, Lei ; Qin, Yong ; ... - Journal of Power Sources

Co and N co-doped carbon (CNC) material is one of the most promising precious-metal-free catalyst forhydrogen evolution reaction (HER), however, widespread application of CNC will require continuousinnovation and optimization of fabrication to maximize electrocatalytic performance, which is always achallenge. Herein, two types of three-dimensional (3D) graphene materials synthesized by one-step ofsimultaneous doping (Co,N/3DG-1) and two-step of sequential doping (Co,N/3DG-2) respectively, areevaluated and correlated their electrocatalytic activity for HER with experimental parameters. The resultsindicate that Co,N/3DG-2 exhibits significantly better electrocatalytic activity than Co,N/3DG-1. Thestructure analysis reveals that Co,N/3DG-2 has more moderate Co-N coordinated number than Co,N/3DG-1. Density functional theor y calculationsmore »« less

Aluminum and Nitrogen Codoped Graphene: Highly Active and Durable Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Journal Article Qin, Yong ; Wu, Hong-Hui ; Zhang, Lei A. ; ... - ACS Catalysis

The development of a highly active and exceedingly durable electrocatalyst at low cost for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is extremely desirable but remains to be a grand challenge. Over the past decade, the transitional-metal (e.g., Fe, Co, Ni) and N codoped graphene materials have attracted most attention as the state-of-the-art nonprecious-metal-based effective electrocatalyst for ORR but still entail unsatisfactory issues such as moderate activity and life. Herein, the main-group-metal Al and N codoped graphene (ANG) is successfully fabricated via thermal annealing treatment of N-doped graphene with aluminum tri-(8-hydroxyquinoline). As a highly effective electrocatalyst for ORR, the as-prepared ANG exhibitsmore »« less

MO-Co@N-Doped Carbon (M = Zn or Co): Vital Roles of Inactive Zn and Highly Efficient Activity toward Oxygen Reduction/Evolution Reactions for Rechargeable Zn-Air Battery

Journal Article Chen, Biaohua ; He, Xiaobo ; Yin, Fengxiang ; ... - Advanced Functional Materials

A highly efficient bifunctional oxygen catalyst is required for practical applications of fuel cells and metal-air batteries, as oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are their core electrode reactions. Here, the MO-Co@ N-doped carbon (NC, M = Zn or Co) is developed as a highly active ORR/OER bifunctional catalyst via pyrolysis of a bimetal metal-organic framework containing Zn and Co, i.e., precursor (CoZn). The vital roles of inactive Zn in developing highly active bifunctional oxygen catalysts are unraveled. When the precursors include Zn, the surface contents of pyridinic N for ORR and the surface contents of Co-N-xmore »« less

An Operando Investigation of (Ni–Fe–Co–Ce)O _x System as Highly Efficient Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Journal Article Favaro, Marco ; Drisdell, Walter S. ; Marcus, Matthew A. ; ... - ACS Catalysis

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a critical component of industrial processes such as electrowinning of metals and the chlor-alkali process. It also plays a central role in the development of a renewable energy field for generation a solar fuels by providing both the protons and electrons needed to generate fuels such as H ₂ or reduced hydrocarbons from CO ₂. To improve these processes, it is necessary to expand the fundamental understanding of catalytically active species at low overpotential, which will further the development of electrocatalysts with high activity and durability. In this context, performing experimental investigations of themore »« less

Self-optimizing, highly surface-active layered metal dichalcogenide catalysts for hydrogen evolution [Surface-active metal dichalcogenide electrocatalysts with self-improving performance for hydrogen evolution]

Journal Article Liu, Yuanyue ; Wu, Jingjie ; Hackenberg, Ken P. ; ... - Nature Energy

Low-cost, layered transition-metal dichalcogenides (MX ₂) based on molybdenum and tungsten have attracted substantial interest as alternative catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). These materials have high intrinsic per-site HER activity; however, a significant challenge is the limited density of active sites, which are concentrated at the layer edges. Here we unravel electronic factors underlying catalytic activity on MX ₂ surfaces, and leverage the understanding to report group-5 MX ₂ (H-TaS ₂ and H-NbS ₂) electrocatalysts whose performance instead mainly derives from highly active basal-plane sites, as suggested by our first-principles calculations and performance comparisons with edge-active counterparts.
