The acidic water-splitting technology based on the polymer exchange membrane can produce hydrogen efficiently, continuously, and cleanly, which is expected to alleviate energy crisis. However, even noble metal-based electrocatalysts such as IrOx species would dissolve rapidly during oxygen evolution. Herein, we successfully assemble high-density carbon nanotubes (CNTs) encapsulated with IrCo nanoparticles (NPs) cloth (IrCo@CNT/CC) using a facile MOF-templated dicyandiamide-assisted pyrolysis strategy. Benefiting from favorable synergistic effect between Co Ir protection of CNT, obtained IrCo@CNT/CC only requires low cell voltage 1.500 V reach 10 mA cm–2 for water splitting an extremely loading 0.027 mg exhibits robust stability under continuous electrolysis 90 h in 0.5 M H2SO4, ranking it among one best bifunctional splitting. Detailed experiments reveal that CNT-encapsulated NPs remain after evolution reaction (HER) but transform into Co-doped IrO2 (OER). Further DFT simulation calculations confirm doping optimize their electronic structures lower barriers HER OER, respectively.

Introducing oxygen vacancies into Co-based oxides with different surface structures can significantly affect their coordination environments and electronic structures, possibly contributing to the variation of electrocatalytic evolution reaction (OER) activity. Herein, were introduced Co3O4 cubes truncated octahedrons uncover effects facets (001) (111) on intrinsic OER activity oxygen-defective Co3O4. The (001)-faceted exhibited a lower onset overpotential 298 mV than that multifaceted (335 mV) because sufficient lattice participation in process. Theoretical calculations revealed vacancy surfaces upshift O 2p band center trigger oxidation mechanism while matched well absorbate mechanism. This work offers new insight for designing electrocatalysts by selectively introducing defects well-defined crystal facets.
