Abstract
Core/shell nanoparticles (NPs) of Au@Co2P, each comprising a Au core with a Co2P shell, were prepared, and shown to efficiently catalyze the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In particular, Au@Co2P has a small overpotential of 321 mV at 10 mA cm-2 in 1 M KOH aqueous solution at room temperature, which is about 95 mV less than pure Co2P. More importantly, the Tafel slope of Au@Co2P, at 57 mV dec-1, is 44 mV dec-1 lower than that of Co2P. Hence, Au@Co2P outperforms Co2P drastically in practical production when a high current density is required.

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
Both global warming and limited fossil resources make the transition from fossil to solar fuels an urgent matter. In this regard, the splitting of water activated by sunlight is a sustainable and carbon-free new energy conversion scheme able to produce efficient technological devices. The availability of appropriate catalysts is essential for the proper kinetics of the two key processes involved, namely, the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). During the last decade, ruthenium nanoparticle derivatives have emerged as true potential substitutes for the state-of-the-art platinum and iridium oxide species for the HER and OER, respectively. Thus, after a summary of the most common methods for catalyst benchmarking, this review covers the most significant developments of ruthenium-based nanoparticles used as catalysts for the water-splitting process. Furthermore, the key factors that govern the catalytic performance of these nanocatalysts are discussed in view of future research directions.

Abstract
Despite of the fact that the underlying processes are of electrochemical nature, electrocatalysis and battery research are commonly perceived as two disjointed research fields. Herein, recent advancements towards closing this apparent community gap by discussing the concepts of the constrained ab initio thermodynamics approach and the volcano relationship, which were originally introduced for studying heterogeneously catalyzed reactions by first-principles methods at the beginning of the 21st century, are summarized. The translation of the computational hydrogen electrode (CHE) approach or activity-based volcano plots to a computational lithium electrode (CLiE) or activity-stability volcano plots, respectively, for the investigation of electrode surfaces in batteries may refine theoretical modeling with the aim that enhancements of the underlying concepts are transferred between the research communities. The presented strategy of developing novel approaches by interdisciplinary research activities may trigger further progress of improved theoretical concepts in the near future.

Abstract
Tailoring the interfaces between active metal centers and supporting materials is an efficient strategy to obtain a superior catalyst for a certain reaction. Herein, an active interface between Ru and CeO2 was identified and constructed by adjusting the morphology of CeO2 support, such as rods (R), cubes (C), and octahedra (O), to optimize both the activity and the stability of Ru/CeO2 catalyst for propane combustion. We found that the morphology of CeO2 support does not significantly affect the chemical states of Ru species but controls the interaction between the Ru and CeO2, leading to the tuning of oxygen vacancy in the CeO2 surface around the Ru-CeO2 interface. The Ru/CeO2 catalyst possesses more oxygen vacancy when CeO2-R with predominantly exposed CeO2{110} surface facets is used, providing a higher ability to adsorb and activate oxygen and propane. As a result, the Ru/CeO2-R catalyst exhibits higher catalytic activity and stability for propane combustion compared with the Ru/CeO2-C and Ru/CeO2-O catalysts. This work highlights a new strategy for the design of efficient metal/CeO2 catalysts by engineering morphology and associated surface facet of CeO2 support for the elimination of light alkane pollutants and other volatile organic compounds.

Abstract
Geometric or electronic confinement of guests inside nanoporous hosts promises to deliver unusual catalytic or opto-electronic functionality from existing materials but is challenging to obtain particularly using metastable hosts, such as metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). Reagents (e.g. precursor) may be too large for impregnation and synthesis conditions may also destroy the hosts. Here we use thermodynamic Pourbaix diagrams (favorable redox and pH conditions) to describe a general method for metal-compound guest synthesis by rationally selecting reaction agents and conditions. Specifically we demonstrate a MOF-confined RuO2 catalyst (RuO2@MOF-808-P) with exceptionally high catalytic CO oxidation below 150 °C as compared to the conventionally made SiO2-supported RuO2 (RuO2/SiO2). This can be caused by weaker interactions between CO/O and the MOF-encapsulated RuO2 surface thus avoiding adsorption-induced catalytic surface passivation. We further describe applications of the Pourbaix-enabled guest synthesis (PEGS) strategy with tutorial examples for the general synthesis of arbitrary guests (e.g. metals, oxides, hydroxides, sulfides). Loading guests inside the pre-existing pores of nanoporous hosts remains challenging. Here, the authors introduce a rational route for incorporation of guest compounds into an arbitrary nanoporous host, enabling the investigation of multiple host-guest systems with surprising functionalities.

Developing anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts with high catalytic activities is of great importance for effective water splitting. Compared with the water-oxidation electrocatalysts that are commonly utilized in alkaline conditions, the ones operating efficiently under neutral or near neutral conditions are more environmentally friendly with less corrosion issues. This review starts with a brief introduction of OER, the importance of OER in mild-pH media, as well as the fundamentals and performance parameters of OER electrocatalysts. Then, recent progress of the rational design of electrocatalysts for OER in mild-pH conditions is discussed. The chemical structures or components, synthetic approaches, and catalytic performances of the OER catalysts will be reviewed. Some interesting insights into the catalytic mechanism are also included and discussed. It concludes with a brief outlook on the possible remaining challenges and future trends of neutral or near-neutral OER electrocatalysts. It hopefully provides the readers with a distinct perspective of the history, present, and future of OER electrocatalysts at mild conditions.

Abstract
We report the hydroxide (OHad) and oxide (Oad) experimental electroadsorption free energies, their dependences on pH, and their correlations to the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysis on RuO2(110) surface. The Sabatier principle predicts that catalyst is most active when the intermediate stabilization is moderate, not too strong such that the bound intermediate disrupts the subsequent catalytic cycle, nor too weak such that the surface is ineffective. For decades, researchers have used this concept to rationalize the activity trend of many OER electrocatalysts including RuO2, which is among the state-of-the-art OER catalysts. In this article, we report an experimental assessment of the Sabatier principle by comparing the oxygen electroadsorption energy to the OER electrocatalysis for the first time on RuO2. We find that the OHad and Oad electroadsorption energies on RuO2(110) depend on pH and obey the scaling relation. However, we did not observe a direct correlation between the OHad and Oad electroadsorption energies and the OER activity in the comparative analysis that includes both RuO2(110) and IrO2(110). Our result raises a question of whether the Sabatier principle can describe highly active electrocatalysts, where the kinetic aspects may influence the electrocatalysis more strongly than the electroadsorption energy, which captures only the thermodynamics of the intermediates and not yet kinetics.

Abstract
An efficient metal-free catalyst is presented for oxygen evolution and reduction based on oxidized laser-induced graphene (LIG-O). The oxidation of LIG by O2 plasma to form LIG-O boosts its performance in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), exhibiting a low onset potential of 260 mV with a low Tafel slope of 49 mV dec-1 , as well as an increased activity for the oxygen reduction reaction. Additionally, LIG-O shows unexpectedly high activity in catalyzing Li2 O2 decomposition in Li-O2 batteries. The overpotential upon charging is decreased from 1.01 V in LIG to 0.63 V in LIG-O. The oxygen-containing groups make essential contributions, not only by providing the active sites, but also by facilitating the adsorption of OER intermediates and lowering the activation energy.

Abstract
We used temperature-programmed reaction spectroscopy (TPRS) to investigate the adsorption and oxidation of methanol on stoichiometric and O-rich RuO2(110) surfaces. We find that the complete oxidation of CH3OH is strongly preferred on stoichiometric RuO2(110) during TPRS for initial CH3OH coverages below ∼0.33 ML (monolayer), and that partial oxidation to mainly CH2O becomes increasingly favored with increasing CH3OH coverage from 0.33 to 1.0 ML. We present evidence that an adsorbed CH2O2 species serves as the key intermediate to complete oxidation and that CH2O2 formation is intrinsically facile but becomes limited by the availability of bridging O-atoms on stoichiometric RuO2(110) at initial CH3OH coverages above 0.33 ML. We show that methanol molecules adsorbed in excess of 0.33 ML dehydrogenate to mainly CH2O and desorb during TPRS, with adsorbed CH3O groups mediating the evolution of both CH2O and CH3OH. We find that O-rich RuO2(110) surfaces are also highly active toward methanol oxidation and that selectivity toward the complete oxidation of methanol increases markedly with increasing coverage of on-top O-atoms (Oot) on RuO2(110). Our results demonstrate that CH3OH species adsorbed within Oot-rich domains react efficiently during TPRS, in parallel with reaction of CH3OH adsorbed initially on cus-Ru sites. The data suggests that the facile hydrogenation of Oot atoms and the resulting desorption of H2O at low-temperature (<∼400 K) provides an efficient pathway for restoring reactive O-atoms and thereby promoting complete oxidation of methanol on the O-rich RuO2(110) surface.

Abstract
We investigated the molecular adsorption of methane, ethane, propane and n-butane on stoichiometric and oxygen-rich RuO2(110) surfaces using temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT-D3) calculations. We find that each alkane adsorbs strongly on the coordinatively-unsaturated Ru (Rucus) atoms of s-RuO2(110), with desorption from this state producing a well-defined TPD peak at low alkane coverage. As the coverage increases, we find that alkanes first form a compressed layer on the Rucus atoms and subsequently adsorb on the bridging O atoms of the surface until the monolayer saturates. DFT-D3 calculations predict that methane preferentially adsorbs on top of a Rucus atom and that the C2 to C4 alkanes preferentially adopt bidentate configurations in which each molecule aligns parallel to the Rucus atom row and datively bonds to neighboring Rucus atoms. DFT-D3 predicts binding energies that agree quantitatively with our experimental estimates for alkane σ-complexes on RuO2(110). We find that oxygen atoms adsorbed on top of Rucus atoms (Oot atoms) stabilize the adsorbed alkane complexes that bind in a given configuration, while also blocking the sites needed for σ-complex formation. This site blocking causes the coverage of the most stable, bidentate alkane complexes to decrease sharply with increasing Oot coverage. Concurrently, we find that a new peak develops in the C2 to C4 alkane TPD spectra with increasing Oot coverage, and that the desorption yield in this TPD feature passes through a maximum at Oot coverages between ∼50% and 60%. We present evidence that the new TPD peak arises from C2 to C4 alkanes that adsorb in upright, monodentate configurations on stranded Rucus sites located within the Oot layer.

Abstract
By cyclic voltammetry at high scan rates, the electrochemical properties of RuO2 in acidic and alkaline solutions were investigated in detail. Thirteen current peaks can be distinguished in sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide. With respect to the pH sensitivity of RuO2 electrodes, we considered charge calculations, peak currents, and apparent diffusion coefficients. The nature of the Ru(II) oxidation was clarified by Ru(I)−Ru(III) species.

Abstract
The voltammetric response of platinum metal oxides is discussed with respect to novel pH sensors combining both miniaturization and stability. For practical applications in solutions of any kind, for example, in tap water and in domestic sewage, various interferences must be considered, such as chloride and reducing agents. This work clarifies the voltammetric behavior of RuO2 electrodes in solutions of different pH values and ionic strengths.

Abstract
The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media was investigated on nanostructured Fe2O3, NiO, and Ni1-xFexO (Fe-doped, rocksalt NiO, x = 0.05-0.19) electrocatalysts deposited via microplasma on indium tin oxide. A detailed investigation of film morphology, structure, and chemical surface state using SEM, XRD, and XPS, respectively, was carried out to understand catalytic activity, which was assessed using cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry. Iron was seen to be fully incorporated into the parent rocksalt NiO lattice during microplasma deposition, and overpotentials (η) decreased from 360 mV for NiO to 310 mV for Ni1-xFexO at 10 mA cm-2. Interestingly, overpotential did not change significantly for Fe compositions from 5-19%. The Ni1-xFexO films displayed relatively low Tafel slopes of 20-30 mV dec-1 at 0.01-1 mA cm-2, demonstrating their high activity for (OER). Turn-over-frequency (TOF, i.e., O2 molecules per Ni atom per s) at η = 350 mV revealed a continuous improvement in activity of the NiO surface with increasing Fe content, where values of 0.07 and 0.48 s-1 were measured for undoped NiO and Ni0.81Fe0.19O films, respectively. Chronopotentiometry measurements followed by SEM and XPS verified that the as-deposited Ni1-xFexO catalysts were mechanically and chemically stable for OER under alkaline conditions. This work highlights that microplasma-based deposition is a general approach to realize conformal coatings of nanostructured, doped oxides with high activity for OER.
