متن کاملPorous Nickel–Iron Oxide as a Highly Efficient Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Evolution Reaction
A porous Ni-Fe oxide with improved crystallinity has been prepared as a highly efficient electrocatalytic water oxidation catalyst. It has a small overpotential, a low Tafel slope, and an outstanding stability. The remarkably improved electrocatalytic performance is due to the porous structure, high extent homogeneous iron incorporation, ameliorative crystallinity, and the low mass transfer res...
