文摘缺陷工程被认为是提高催化剂性能的有效方法,因为它能使催化剂具有丰富的活性位点和合适的结合能,从而提高催化性能.本文采用简单的电沉积和酸蚀刻方法制备了双缺陷工程RuO_(2)/D-Co_(3)O_(4)/CC(低Ru负载2.42 wt%)复合材料,用于增强酸性介质中的氧析出反应(OER).所制备的RuO_(2)/D-Co_(3)O_(4)/CC催化剂采用物理化学技术进行了深入表征,结果表明催化剂中存在明显的阴离子和阳离子缺陷.实验研究表明具有双重缺陷的优化RuO_(2)/D-Co_(3)O_(4)/CC催化剂暴露了更多的电化学活性位点,有效降低了催化反应对电解质中质子浓度的依赖性,从而触发了高性能的OER.只需要181 mV的过电位就能驱动10 mA cm^(-2)的电流密度,并能在此电流密度下保持连续电解120 h.RuO_(2)/D-Co_(3)O_(4)/CC是一种很有前途的酸性OER电催化剂.
