摘要
Oxygen evolution reaction(OER)is central to technologies such as electrochemical water splitting,and developing efficient and low-cost non-precious metal electrocatalysts for OER is of great significance to reducing cell voltage and developing hydrogen production by electrochemical water splitting.Herein,we prepared a carbon,nitrogen co-doped porous Co_(2)P derived from the metal-organic framework(ZIF-67),which is anchored on bimetallic MXene nanosheets(named MX@MOF-Co_(2)P).It was used as the OER catalyst and exhibited great electrocatalytic performance with very small overpotentials(246 mV at 10 mA^(-2)and 407 mV at 200 mA cm^(-2))as well as ultralow Tafel slope(28.18 mV dec^(-1)).Combining charac-terizations and theoretical calculations,it was found that the remarkable performance was from follows:the obtained MX@MOF-Co_(2)P inherited the porous structure of the pristine MOF with a large number of open active sites;carbon and nitrogen doping also modulated the electronic structure of the active center;the synergistic effect between cobalt phosphide and MXenes booted the electronic transfer.This work represents a promising strategy for the development of non-precious metal catalysts derived from metal-organic frameworks to achieve efficient energy conversion.
