Abstract

Transition metal phosphides have been widely studied because of their low cost and good conductivity, attempting to replace precious metal-based materials as new electrochemical catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction. However, the existing high-performance phosphide catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction have bottlenecks such as difficulty to accurately determine the components and the catalytic mechanism. Therefore, in this study, we designed and synthesized FeP/CoP heterogeneous materials with a unique porous morphology as OER catalysts. The as-prepared heterogeneous materials have excellent OER catalytic activity and stability. The overpotential at 10 mA cm−2 is only 266 mV, and the Tafel slope is 60.86 mV dec−1. We believe that the good catalytic performance of the as-prepared material is mainly due to the unique morphology and redistribution of interfacial charges. The results of this study provide new ideas for designing efficient metal phosphide-based OER catalysts.
