a three-dimensional (3D) core–shell nanohybrid based
on few-layer amorphous Co–Fe–Bi nanosheets
directly grown on crystalline NiCo2O4 nanowires
supported on the Ni foam (Co–Fe–Bi/NiCo2O4/NF) are facilely fabricated as highly efficient
and durable electrocatalysts for water oxidation. This self-standing
3D core–shell nanohybrid design with unique materials chemistry
and excellent interface engineering enhances the mass transport and
stimulates the production of active sites during the oxygen evolution
reaction. Serving as the anode catalysts, the resulting self-standing
Co–Fe–Bi/NiCo2O4/NF
nanohybrid electrocatalysts show a better electrocatalytic activity
with an overpotential of 227 mV at 10 mA/cm2, a Tafel slope
of 45 mV dec–1, excellent durability over 40 h,
and the ability to deliver a current density of 200 mA/cm2 at an overpotential of ∼410 mV in an alkaline medium. Thus,
the excellent electrocatalytic performance of the Co–Fe–Bi/NiCo2O4/NF nanohybrid demonstrates
the importance of design and development of core–shell nanohybrids
for large-scale practical applications in a multitude of energy conversion
devices.
