Abstract Anion-exchange membrane water electrolyzers (AEMWEs) for green hydrogen production have received intensive attention due to their feasibility of using earth-abundant NiFe-based catalysts. By introducing a third metal into catalysts construct asymmetrical M-NiFe units, the d -orbital and electronic structures can be adjusted, which is an important strategy achieve sufficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance in AEMWEs. Herein, ternary NiFeM (M: La, Mo) featured with distinct units varying -orbitals are reported this work. Experimental theoretical calculation results reveal that doping La leads optimized hybridization between orbital 2 p oxygen, resulting enhanced adsorption strength intermediates, reduced rate-determining step energy barrier, responsible OER performance. More critically, obtained NiFeLa catalyst only requires 1.58 V reach 1 A cm −2 anion exchange electrolyzer demonstrates excellent long-term stability up 600 h.

As an electrocatalyst for water electrolysis, nickel oxide (NiO) has received significant attention due to its cost-effectiveness and high reactivity among non-noble-metal-based catalytic materials. However, NiO still exhibits poor alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) oxygen (OER) kinetics compared conventional noble metal-based catalysts. This is because a strong interaction with protons the HER too low free energy of OH* state, resulting in slower rate-determining step (RDS) OER. To address these issues, adding dopant suggested as efficient method modify electron structure favorably each kinetics. In this context, we demonstrate that Bismuth (Bi), higher electronegativity than Nickel (Ni), induces positive charge on Ni sites. enhances activity by reducing number excessive cation interactions electrocatalyst. Moreover, Bi ratio increases, sites become more positively charged, changes electronic directly impact mechanism. Particularly, it confirmed HER, additives increase proton-adsorbed toward near-zero value and, additionally, decrease difference second considered RDS OER, calculated density functional theory. The effects both OER are demonstrated practical electrochemical evaluations half/single cells. Notably, Bi-containing catalysts Bi05:NiO Bi02:NiO exhibit remarkable kinetics, showing performance improvements 97.0% 21.9%, respectively.
