In this study, mixed transition metal oxide nanoparticles encapsulated in nitrogendoped carbon （denoted as AB2O4@NC） were developed using a one-pot protocol, wherein a metal-organic complex was adopted as the precursor. As a proof of concept, MnCo2O4@NC was used as an electrocatalyst for water oxidation, and demonstrated an outstanding electrocatalytic activity with low overpotential to achieve a current density of 10 mA·cm^-1 0/10 = 287 mV）, small Tafel slope （55 mV·dec^-1）, and high stability （96% retention after 20 h）. The excellent electrochemical performance benefited from the synergistic effects of the MnCo2O4 nanoparticles and nitrogen-doped carbon, as well as the assembled mesoporous nanowire structure. Finally, a highly stable all-solid-state supercapacitor based on MnCo2O4@NC was demonstrated （1.5% decay after 10,000 cycles）.展开更多

In this study, we report the development of iron-doped nickel disulfide nanoarray on Ti mesh （Fe0.1-NiS2 NA/Ti） via the sulfidation of its nickel-iron-layered double hydroxide precursor （NiFe-LDH NAFFi）. As a three-dimensional OER anode, Fe0.1NiS2 NA/Ti exhibits remarkable activity and stability in 1.0 M KOH, with the requirement of a low overpotential of 231 mV to achieve 100 mA·cm^-2. In addition, it exhibits excellent activity and durability in 30 wt.% KOH. Notably, this electrode is also efficient for the cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction under alkaline conditions.展开更多
