Abstract
Amorphous oxides have attracted special attention as advanced electrocatalysts owing to their unique local structural flexibility and attractive electrocatalytic properties. With abundant randomly oriented bonds and surface-exposed defects (e.g., oxygen vacancies) as active catalytic sites, the adsorption/desorption of reactants can be optimized, leading to superior catalytic activities. Amorphous oxide materials have found wide electrocatalytic applications ranging from hydrogen evolution and oxygen evolution to oxygen reduction, CO2 electroreduction and nitrogen electroreduction. The amorphous oxide electrocatalysts even outperform their crystalline counterparts in terms of electrocatalytic activity and stability. Despite of the merits and achievements for amorphous oxide electrocatalysts, there are still issues and challenges existing for amorphous oxide electrocatalysts. There are rarely reviews specifically focusing on amorphous oxide electrocatalysts and therefore it is imperative to have a comprehensive overview of the research progress and to better understand the achievements and issues with amorphous oxide electrocatalysts. In this minireview, several general preparation methods for amorphous oxides are first introduced. Then, the achievements in amorphous oxides for several important electrocatalytic reactions are summarized. Finally, the challenges and perspectives for the development of amorphous oxide electrocatalysts are outlined.

Abstract
Development of highly efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts is a critical challenge in the cost-effective generation of clean fuels. Here, a metal-free tyramine functionalized graphene oxide (T-GO) electrocatalyst is proposed to use in alkaline electrolytes for enhanced OER. Moreover, the T-GO and GO nanomaterials are well characterized by SEM, XRD, FTIR, XPS and Raman spectroscopy. T-GO exhibits an electrocatalytic OER with a current density of 2 mA cm-2 at a low onset potential of ∼1.39 V and a small Tafel slope of about 69 mV dec-1 and GO exhibits an onset potential of 1.51 V and Tafel slope of about 92 mV dec-1. Additionally, the current stability and RRDE based diffusion controlled response of the T-GO electrocatalyst are outstanding compared to GO. This study establishes metal free T-GO as an efficient electrocatalyst for the OER and used for cathodic production of hydrogen as a counter reaction in the field of water splitting.

Abstract
Due to the increasing energy consumption, designing efficient electrocatalysts for electrochemical water splitting is highly demanded. In this study, we provide a facile approach for the design and fabrication of efficient and stable electrocatalysts through wet chemical methods. The carbon material, obtained by the dehydration of sucrose sugar, provides high surface area for the deposition of NiO nanostructures and the resulting NiO/C catalysts show higher activity towards the OER in alkaline media. During the OER, a composite of NiO with 200 mg C can produce current densities of 10 and 20 mA cm-2 at a bias of 1.45 V and 1.47 V vs. RHE, respectively. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy experiments showed the lowest charge transfer resistance and the highest double layer capacitance in the case of the NiO/C composite with 200 mg C. The presence of C for the deposition of NiO nanostructures increases the active centers and consequently a robust electrocatalytic activity is achieved. The obtained results in terms of the low overpotential and small Tafel slope of 55 mV dec-1 for non-precious catalysts are clear indications for the significant advancement in the field of electrocatalyst design for water splitting. This composite material based on NiO/C is simple and scalable for widespread use in various applications, especially in supercapacitors and lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Electron paramagnetic resonance, IR, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and density functional theory computation reveal that the electronic structure of α-diimine-coordinated {Fe(NO)2}10-reduced dinitrosyliron complexes (DNICs) may best be described as [{Fe(NO)2}10-L•], with the added electron residing mainly on the α-diimine ligand framework. The combination of electrochemistry, gas chromatography, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray studies demonstrates that the cathodic potential promotes/triggers the transformation of an α-diimine-coordinated {Fe(NO)2}10-reduced DNIC into a particulate deposit on the electrode, and electrodeposited-film electrodes, CFeO and CFeNO, are kinetically dominant electrocatalysts responsible for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) from water with quantitative Faradaic efficiency. In comparison with the CFeO electrode reaching a current density of 10 mA/cm2 with an overpotential of 333 mV for HER, the nitrogen-doped iron oxide electrode, CFeNO, requires 147 mV of overpotential to achieve a current density of 10 mA/cm2 in a 1 M NaOH aqueous solution. The CFeNO electrode exhibits higher kinetic efficiency (Tafel slope of 59 mV/dec) than the CFeO electrode (Tafel slope of 122 mV/dec) in alkaline conditions. As opposed to high Rct (74.3 Ω) displayed by the CFeO electrode, the smaller charge-transfer resistance ( Rct) of the CFeNO electrode (34.0 Ω) demonstrated that the better HER catalytic activity may be ascribed to the incorporation of nitrogen into iron oxide architecture, which increases the surface roughness and electroconductivity of the CFeNO electrode (56.9% iron content and nitrogen electron-donating effect) and improves HER catalysis by polarizing the incoming water molecule (acting as a proton tray). This result implicates that a (NH4)2SO4-assisted nitrogen-doping strategy is a direct and effective method to realize synergistic regulation of the reaction dynamics, catalytically active sites and electronic conductivity, endowing this nitrogen-doped material CFeNO electrode as a promising HER electrocatalyst under alkaline conditions.

Abstract
A significant and long-standing problem in electrochemistry has demanded the need for gas diffusion electrodes that are "flood-proof" and "leak-proof" when operated with a liquid electrolyte. The absence of a solution to this problem has, effectively, made it unviable to use gas diffusion electrodes in many electrochemical manufacturing processes, especially as " gas-depolarized" counter electrodes with significantly decreased energy consumption. In this work, Gortex membranes (also known as expanded PTFE or ePTFE) have been studied as novel, leak-proof substrates for gas diffusion electrodes [PTFE = poly(tetrafluoroethylene)]. We report the fabrication, characterization, and operation of gas diffusion electrodes comprising finely pored Gortex overcoated with 10% Pt on Vulcan XC72, PTFE binder, and a fine Ni mesh as a current carrier. Capillary flow porometry indicated that the electrodes only flooded/leaked when the excess of pressure on their liquid-side over their gas-side was 5.7 atm. This is more than an order of magnitude greater than any previous gas diffusion electrode. The Gortex electrodes were tested as hydrogen- and oxygen-depolarized anodes and cathodes in an alkaline fuel cell in which the liquid electrolyte was pressurized to 0.5-1.5 atm above the gas pressures. Despite the record high electrolyte pressure, the electrodes, which had Pt loadings of only 0.075 mg Pt/cm2, exhibited notable activity over 2 d of continuous, leak-free operation. Under the applied liquid pressure, the fuel cell also overcame all of the key technical challenges that have hindered the adoption of alkaline fuel cells to date. The high activity and unprecedented resistance to leaking/flooding exhibited by these electrodes, even when subjected to large liquid electrolyte overpressures under gas depolarization conditions, provide an important advance with far-reaching implications for electrochemical manufacturing.

Abstract
Metal oxides of the spinel family have shown great potential towards the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), but the fundamental OER mechanism of spinel oxides is still far from being completely understood, especially for the role of the metal ions. Owing to various coordinated sites of divalent/trivalent metals ions and surface conditions (morphology and defects), it is a great challenge to have a fair assessment of the electrocatalytic performance of spinel systems. Herein, we demonstrated a series of MFe2O4 (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Zn) with a well-controlled morphology to achieve a comprehensive study of electrocatalytic activity toward OER. By utilizing several in situ analyses, we could conclude a universal rule that the activities for OER in the metal oxide systems were determined by the occurrence of a phase transformation, and this structural transformation could work well in both crystallographic sites (Td and Oh sites). Additionally, the divalent metal ion significantly dominated the formation of oxyhydroxide through an epitaxial relationship, which depended on the atomic arrangement at the interface of spinel and metal oxyhydroxide, while trivalent metal ions remained unchanged as a host lattice. The metal oxyhydroxide was formed during a redox reaction rather than being formed during OER. The occurrence of the redox reaction seems to accompany a remarkable increase in resistance and capacitance might result from the structural transformation from spinel to metal oxyhydroxide. We believe that the approaching strategies and information obtained in the present study can offer a guide to designing a promising electrocatalytic system towards the oxygen evolution reaction and other fields.

Abstract
Metal oxides of earth-abundant elements are promising electrocatalysts to overcome the sluggish oxygen evolution and oxygen reduction reaction (OER/ORR) in many electrochemical energy-conversion devices. However, it is difficult to control their catalytic activity precisely. Here, a general three-stage synthesis strategy is described to produce a family of hybrid materials comprising amorphous bimetallic oxide nanoparticles anchored on N-doped reduced graphene oxide with simultaneous control of nanoparticle elemental composition, size, and crystallinity. Amorphous Fe0.5 Co0.5 Ox is obtained from Prussian blue analog nanocrystals, showing excellent OER activity with a Tafel slope of 30.1 mV dec-1 and an overpotential of 257 mV for 10 mA cm-2 and superior ORR activity with a large limiting current density of -5.25 mA cm-2 at 0.6 V. A fabricated Zn-air battery delivers a specific capacity of 756 mA h gZn-1 (corresponding to an energy density of 904 W h kgZn-1 ), a peak power density of 86 mW cm-2 and can be cycled over 120 h at 10 mA cm-2 . Other two amorphous bimetallic, Ni0.4 Fe0.6 Ox and Ni0.33 Co0.67 Ox , are also produced to demonstrate the general applicability of this method for synthesizing binary metal oxides with controllable structures as electrocatalysts for energy conversion.

Abstract
The oxygen evolution reaction involves complex interplay among electrolyte, solid catalyst, and gas-phase and liquid-phase reactants and products. Monitoring catalysis interfaces between catalyst and electrolyte can provide valuable insights into catalytic ability. But it is a challenging task due to the additive solid supports in traditional measurement. Here we design a nanodevice platform and combine on-chip electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurement, temporary I-V measurement of an individual nanosheet, and molecular dynamic calculations to provide a direct way for nanoscale catalytic diagnosis. By removing O2 in electrolyte, a dramatic decrease in Tafel slope of over 20% and early onset potential of 1.344 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode are achieved. Our studies reveal that O2 reduces hydroxyl ion density at catalyst interface, resulting in poor kinetics and negative catalytic performance. The obtained in-depth understanding could provide valuable clues for catalysis system design. Our method could also be useful to analyze other catalytic processes. Electrocatalysis offers important opportunities for clean fuel production, but uncovering the chemistry at the electrode surface remains a challenge. Here, the authors exploit a single-nanosheet electrode to perform in-situ measurements of water oxidation electrocatalysis and reveal a crucial interaction with oxygen.

Abstract
Water splitting into hydrogen and oxygen in order to store light or electric energy requires efficient electrocatalysts for practical application. Cost-effectiveness, abundance, and efficiency are the major challenges of the electrocatalysts. Herein, this paper reports the use of low-cost 304-type stainless steel mesh as suitable electrocatalysts for splitting of water. The commercial and self-support stainless steel mesh is subjected to exfoliation and heteroatom doping processes. The modified stainless steel electrocatalyst displays higher oxygen evolution reaction property than the commercial IrO2 , and comparable hydrogen evolution reaction property with that of Pt. More importantly, an all-stainless-steel-based alkaline electrolyzer (denoted as NESSP//NESS) is designed for the first time, which possesses outstanding stability along with lower overall voltage than the conventional Pt//IrO2 electrolyzer at increasing current densities. The remarkable electrocatalytic properties of the stainless steel electrode can be attributed to the unique exfoliated-surface morphology, heteroatom doping, and synergistic effect from the uniform distribution of the interconnected elemental compositions. This work creates prospects to the utilization of low-cost, highly active, and ultradurable electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy conversion.

Abstract
We demonstrate an electrodeposition method to rapidly grow novel three-dimensional nanodendrite forests of amorphous α-phase mixed nickel-cobalt hydroxides on stainless steel foil toward high performance electrocatalysis of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The proposed hydrogen bubble-templated, diffusion-limited deposition process leads to the unprecedented dendritic growth of vertically aligned amorphous metal hydroxides, induced by the controlled electrolysis of the tuned water content in the primarily alcohol-based deposition solution. The hierarchical nature of these binder-free, amorphous metal hydroxide deposits leads to their superhydrophilic nature and underwater superaerophobic behavior. The combination of all of these qualities leads to exemplary catalytic performance. When directly grown on planar stainless steel substrates, these nanoforests show high OER activity with overpotentials as low as ∼255 mV to produce a current density of 10 mA cm-2 over 10 000 accelerated stability test cycles. This work demonstrates a novel fabrication technique that can simultaneously achieve a dendritic hierarchical structure, vertical alignment, superaerophobicity, amorphous crystal structure, and intimate contact with the substrate that leads to high catalytic activity with excellent durability.

Abstract
We report the electrosynthesis of a water oxidation catalyst based on Ag oxides (AgCat). The deposited AgCat is composed of mixed valence crystalline Ag oxides with the presence of particle aggregates whose size is ∼1 μm. This catalyst, coupled with TiO2 and hematite, and under photoelectrochemical conditions, substantially increases photocurrents in a wide range of applied potentials compared with bare and Co-Pi-modified photocatalysts. AgCat can sustain current densities comparable with other water oxidation catalysts. Dark bulk electrolysis demonstrated that AgCat is stable and can sustain high turnover number in operative conditions. Oxygen evolution from water occurs in mild conditions: pH = 2-13, room temperature and pressure, and moderate overpotentials (600 mV) compatible with the coupling with semiconducting oxides as sensitizers. Using hematite in sustained electrolysis O2 production is significant, both in the dark and under irradiation, after an initial slow induction time in which modification of surface species occurs.

Abstract
The electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen and oxygen is a simple and attractive approach to store renewable energies in the form of chemical fuels. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a complex four-electron process that constitutes the most energy-inefficient step in water electrolysis. Here we describe a novel electrochemical method for the deposition of a family of thin-film transition metal (oxy)hydroxides as OER catalysts. The thin films have nanodomains of crystallinity with lattice spacing similar to those of double-layered hydroxides. The loadings of these thin-film catalysts were accurately determined with a resolution of below 1 μg cm(-2) using an electrochemical quartz microcrystal balance. The loading-activity relations for various catalysts were established using voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy. The thin-film catalysts have up to four types of loading-activity dependence due to film nucleation and growth as well as the resistance of the films. A zone of intrinsic activity has been identified for all of the catalysts where the mass-averaged activity remains constant while the loading is increased. According to their intrinsic activities, the metal oxides can be classified into three categories: NiOx, MnOx, and FeOx belong to category I, which is the least active; CoOx and CoNiOx belong to category II, which has medium activity; and FeNiOx, CoFeOx, and CoFeNiOx belong to category III, which is the most active. The high turnover frequencies of CoFeOx and CoFeNiOx at low overpotentials and the simple deposition method allow the fabrication of high-performance anode electrodes coated with these catalysts. In 1 M KOH and with the most active electrode, overpotentials as low as 240 and 270 mV are required to reach 10 and 100 mA cm(-2), respectively.

Abstract
Effective and stable electrocatalysts (ECs) are of great importance for the modification of semiconductor (SC) photoanodes, to achieve efficient photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. Herein we demonstrate that the low-crystallinity mesoporous spinel CoGa2O4 oxygen evolution catalyst (OEC), exhibiting excellent bulk electrocatalytic stability and activity for oxygen-evolving reaction (OER), obviously improved water oxidization on a-Fe2O3 photoanode. Low crystallinity not only balances the stability and activity for ECs themselves but facilitates formation of adjustable Schottky junctions between ECs and SCs. Those would contribute to surface state passivation and photogenerated hole extraction, leading to lower onset potential and larger photocurrent. Thus, our finding suggests that low crystallinity could serve as a beneficial feature of ECs to achieve efficient PEC water splitting, owing to its preponderant tendency for the improvement of interface reaction kinetics.

Abstract
Electrocatalyst (EC)-modified semiconductor (SC) photoelectrodes are key elements of solar water-splitting systems. The SC|EC interface affects the composite photoelectrode behavior but is poorly understood. We uncover the role of EC activity and SC|EC interface properties using a range of metal (Ni, Fe, Ni-Fe, Co, Ir) oxide or (oxy)hydroxide ECs deposited on model single-crystal n-TiO2 photoanodes. The impedance and photoelectrochemical response of the system was nearly independent of EC oxygen evolution activity if the catalyst was deposited electrochemically as an ion-permeable (oxy)hydroxide or hydrous oxide. When dense oxides (e.g., ion-impermeable) ECs were used, the response depended strongly on the EC. These data demonstrate that the EC and SC interface structures are more important than the EC activity in determining the composite photoanode response, confirming recent SC|EC interface simulations for ion-permeable ECs. These results thus inform the design of high-performance water-oxidizing photoanodes with direct SC|EC interfaces.
