Zhang M, Wang J, Gong Y. Atomically dispersed silver atoms incorporated in spinel cobalt oxide (Co 3O 4) for boosting oxygen evolution reaction. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 659:203-212. [PMID: 38176230 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.12.159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
Incorporating noble metal single atoms into lattice of spinel cobalt oxide (Co3O4) is an attractive way to fabricate oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts because of the high activity and economic benefit. The commonly used high valence noble metal dopants such as ruthenium, iridium and rhodium tend to supersede Co3+ at octahedral site of Co3O4 and result in great activity, the origins of admirable activity were also wildly investigated. However, bare explorations on doping noble metal single atom into tetrahedral site of Co3O4 to construct OER catalyst have been reported, corresponding catalytic activity and mechanism remain mystery. Here, a promising structure that tetrahedrally substituent Ag single atom embedded in Co3O4 nanoparticles on the surface of carbon nanotube (Ag-Co3O4/CNT) was presented, and its performance in OER was probed. The high angle annular dark field-scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) demonstrate the successful embeddedness of atomical Ag atom in Co3O4 lattice, the resultant electronic interaction is conducive to promote charge transfer for OER. Theoretical calculations further disclose that atomical Ag dopant prefers to replace tetrahedral Co2+ rather than octahedral Co3+. The substitution Ag acts as the active site through Ag-Co bridge and facilitates the desorption process, which improves the turnover frequency (TOF) and boosts the intrinsic activity of Ag-Co3O4/CNT. Benefiting from the essentials above, Ag-Co3O4/CNT displays remarkable activity (236 mV@10 mA cm-2) and robust stability for alkaline OER. This finding offers a potential direction for the design of noble metal single atom involved Co3O4 based OER electrocatalysts.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 657:169-177.

Abstract
Fabricating an efficient electrocatalyst for both oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) isthe most challenging task for overall water splitting. Herein, we utilized the confinement effect of molten sodium chloride (NaCl) to controllably prepare hollow Co/Co3O4 nanoparticles embedded into nitrogen-doped carbon (H-Co/Co3O4-NC). Experimental and theoretical investigations revealed that the interfacial interaction within Co/Co3O4 heterostructure played a pivotal role in modulating the electronic structure and facilitating the electron transfer. Meanwhile, the superiority of hollow nanostructure could promote the mesoscale mass diffusion. Remarkably, the as-prepared H-Co/Co3O4-NC catalyst achieved the low overpotentials of 316 mV and 252 mV towards OER and HER, respectively, which delivered overall water splitting with the potential of 1.76 V at a current density of 10 mA cm-2.

Abstract
Plasma etching treatment is an effective strategy to improve the electrocatalytic activity, but the improvement mechanism is still unclear. In this work, a nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube-encased iron nanoparticles (Fe@NCNT) catalyst is synthesized as the model catalyst, followed by plasma etching treatment with different parameters. The electrocatalytic activity improvement mechanism of the plasma etching treatment is revealed by combining the physicochemical characterizations and electrochemical results. As a result, highly active metal-nitrogen species introduced by nitrogen plasma etching treatment are recognized as the main contribution to the improved electrocatalytic activity, and the defects induced by plasma etching treatment also contribute to the improvement of the electrocatalytic activity. In addition, the prepared catalyst also demonstrates superior ORR activity and stability than the commercial Pt/C catalyst.

Abstract
Lithium-air batteries (LABs) have a theoretically high energy density. However, LABs have some issues, such as low energy efficiency, short life cycle, and high overpotential in charge-discharge cycles. To solve these issues electrocatalytic materials were developed for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which significantly affect battery performance. In this study, we aimed to synthesize electrocatalytic N-doped carbon-based composite materials with solution plasma (SP) using Co or Ni as electrodes from organic solvents containing cup-stacked carbon nanotubes (CSCNTs), iron (II) phthalocyanine (FePc), and N-nethyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP). The synthesized N-doped carbon-based composite materials were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). TEM observation and XPS measurements revealed that the synthesized carbon materials contained elemental N, Fe, and electrode-derived Co or Ni, leading to the successful synthesis of N-doped carbon-based composite materials. The electrocatalytic activity for ORR of the synthesized carbon-based composite materials was also evaluated using electrochemical measurements. The electrochemical measurements demonstrated that the electrocatalytic performance for ORR of N-doped carbon-based composite material including Fe and Co showed superiority to that of N-doped carbon-based composite material including Fe and Ni. The difference in the electrocatalytic performance for ORR is discussed regarding the difference in the specific surface area and the presence ratio of chemical bonding species.

Abstract
Cobalt sulfide is deemed a promising anode material, owing to its high theoretical capacity (630 mAh g-1 ). Due to its low conductivity, fast energy decay, and the huge volume change during the lithiation process limits its practical application. In this work, a simple and large-scale method are developed to prepare Co1-x S nanoparticles embedding in N-doped carbon/graphene (CSCG). At a current density of 0.2 C, the reversible discharge capacity of CSCG maintains 937 mAh g-1 after 200 cycles. The discharge capacity of CSCG maintains at 596 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles at the high current density of 2.0 C. The excellent performance of CSCG is due to its unique structural features. The addition of rGO buffered volume changes while preventing Co1-x S from crushing/aggregating during the cycle, resulting in multiplier charge-discharge and long cycle life. The N-doped carbon provides a simple and easy way to achieve excellent performance in practical applications. Combined with density functional theory calculation, the presence of Co-vacancies(Co1-x ) increases more active site. Moreover, N-doping carbon is beneficial to the improve adsorption energy. This work presents a simple and effective structural engineering strategy and also provides a new idea to improve the performance of Li-ion batteries.

Abstract
Transition metal borides, carbides, pnictides, and chalcogenides (X-ides) have emerged as a class of materials for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Because of their high earth abundance, electrical conductivity, and OER performance, these electrocatalysts have the potential to enable the practical application of green energy conversion and storage. Under OER potentials, X-ide electrocatalysts demonstrate various degrees of oxidation resistance due to their differences in chemical composition, crystal structure, and morphology. Depending on their resistance to oxidation, these catalysts will fall into one of three post-OER electrocatalyst categories: fully oxidized oxide/(oxy)hydroxide material, partially oxidized core@shell structure, and unoxidized material. In the past ten years (from 2013 to 2022), over 890 peer-reviewed research papers have focused on X-ide OER electrocatalysts. Previous review papers have provided limited conclusions and have omitted the significance of "catalytically active sites/species/phases" in X-ide OER electrocatalysts. In this review, a comprehensive summary of (i) experimental parameters (e.g., substrates, electrocatalyst loading amounts, geometric overpotentials, Tafel slopes, etc.) and (ii) electrochemical stability tests and post-analyses in X-ide OER electrocatalyst publications from 2013 to 2022 is provided. Both mono and polyanion X-ides are discussed and classified with respect to their material transformation during the OER. Special analytical techniques employed to study X-ide reconstruction are also evaluated. Additionally, future challenges and questions yet to be answered are provided in each section. This review aims to provide researchers with a toolkit to approach X-ide OER electrocatalyst research and to showcase necessary avenues for future investigation.

Abstract
High entropy oxide nanoparticles (HEO NPs) with multiple component elements possess improved stability and multiple uses for functional applications, including catalysis, data memory, and energy storage. However, the synthesis of homogenous HEO NPs containing five or more immiscible elements with a single-phase structure is still a great challenge due to the strict synthetic conditions. In particular, several synthesis methods of HEO NPs require extremely high temperatures. In this study, we demonstrate a low cost, facile, and effective method to synthesize three- to eight-element HEO nanoparticles by a combination of electrospinning and low-temperature ambient annealing. HEO NPs were generated by annealing nanofibers at 330 °C for 30 minutes under air conditions. The average size of the HEO nanoparticles was ∼30 nm and homogenous element distribution was obtained from post-electrospinning thermal decomposition. The synthesized HEO NPs exhibited magnetic properties with the highest saturation magnetization at 9.588 emu g-1 and the highest coercivity at 147.175 Oe for HEO NPs with four magnetic elements while integrating more nonmagnetic elements will suppress the magnetic response. This electrospun and low-temperature annealing method provides an easy and flexible design for nanoparticle composition and economic processing pathway, which offers a cost- and energy-effective, and high throughput entropy nanoparticle synthesis on a large scale.

Abstract
The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is the performance-limiting step in the process of water splitting. In situ electrochemical conditioning could induce surface reconstruction of various OER electrocatalysts, forming reactive sites dynamically but at the expense of fast cation leaching. Therefore, achieving simultaneous improvement in catalytic activity and stability remains a significant challenge. Herein, we used a scalable cation deficiency-driven exsolution approach to ex situ reconstruct a homogeneous-doped cobaltate precursor into an Ir/CoO/perovskite heterojunction (SCI-350), which served as an active and stable OER electrode. The SCI-350 catalyst exhibited a low overpotential of 240 mV at 10 mA cm-2 in 1 M KOH and superior durability in practical electrolysis for over 150 h. The outstanding activity is preliminarily attributed to the exponentially enlarged electrochemical surface area for charge accumulation, increasing from 3.3 to 175.5 mF cm-2. Moreover, density functional theory calculations combined with advanced spectroscopy and 18O isotope-labeling experiments evidenced the tripled oxygen exchange kinetics, strengthened metal-oxygen hybridization, and engaged lattice oxygen oxidation for O-O coupling on SCI-350. This work presents a promising and feasible strategy for constructing highly active oxide OER electrocatalysts without sacrificing durability.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Unlike noble metals, the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) behavior on Ti is more complicated due to its spontaneously formed oxide film. This film results in sluggish ORR kinetics and tends to be reduced within ORR potential region, causing the weak and multi-reaction coupled current. Though Ti is being used in chemical and biological fields, its ORR research is still underexplored. EXPERIMENTS We innovatively employed the modified reactive tip generation-substrate collection (RTG/SC) mode of scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) with high efficiency of 97.2 % to quantitatively study the effects of film characteristics, solution environment (pH, anion, dissolved oxygen), and applied potential on the ORR activity and selectivity of Ti. Then, density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) analyses were employed to elucidate its ORR behavior. FINDINGS On highly reduced Ti, film properties dominate ORR behavior with promoted 4e- selectivity. Rapid film regeneration in alkaline/O2-saturated conditions inhibits ORR activity. Besides, ORR is sensitive to anion species in neutral solutions while showing enhanced 4e- reduction in alkaline media. All the improved 4e- selectivities originate from the hydrogen bond/electrostatic stabilization effect, while the decayed ORR activity by Cl- arises from the suppressed O2 adsorption. This work provides theoretical support and possible guidance for ORR research on oxide-covered metals.

Abstract
The fabrication and design of carbon-based hierarchical structures with tailored nano-architectures have attracted the enormous attention of the materials science community due to their exceptional chemical and physical properties. The collective control of nano-objects, in terms of their dimensionality, orientation and size, is of paramount importance to expand the implementation of carbon nanomaterials across a large variety of applications. In this context, porous anodic alumina (PAA) has become an attractive template where the pore morphologies can be straightforwardly modulated. The synthesis of diverse carbon nanomaterials can be performed using PAA templates, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon nanofibers (CNFs), and nanodiamonds, or can act as support for other carbon allotropes such as graphene and other carbon nanoforms. However, the successful growth of carbon nanomaterials within ordered PAA templates typically requires a series of stages involving the template fabrication, nanostructure growth and finally an etching or electrode metallization steps, which all encounter different challenges towards a nanodevice fabrication. The present review article describes the advantages and challenges associated with the fabrication of carbon materials in PAA based materials and aims to give a renewed momentum to this topic within the materials science community by providing an exhaustive overview of the current synthesis approaches and the most relevant applications based on PAA/Carbon nanostructures materials. Finally, the perspective and opportunities in the field are presented.

Abstract
Zinc–air batteries (ZABs) are promising candidates for the next-generation energy storage systems, however, their further development is severely hindered by kinetically sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Facile synthesis approaches of highly active bifunctional electrocatalysts for OER and ORR are required for their practical applications. Herein, we develop a facile synthesis procedure for composite electrocatalysts composed of OER-active metal oxyhydroxide and ORR-active spinel oxide containing Co, Ni and Fe from composite precursors consisting of metal hydroxide and layered double hydroxide (LDH). Both hydroxide and LDH are simultaneously produced by a precipitation method with a controlled molar ratio of Co2+, Ni2+ and Fe3+ in the reaction solution, and calcination of the precursor at a moderate temperature provides composite catalysts of metal oxyhydroxides and spinel oxides. The composite catalyst shows superb bifunctional performances with a small potential difference of 0.64 V between a potential of 1.51 V vs. RHE at 10 mA cm−2 for OER and a half-wave potential of 0.87 V vs. RHE for ORR. The rechargeable ZAB assembled with the composite catalyst as an air-electrode exhibits a power density of 195 mA cm−2 and excellent durability of 430 hours (1270 cycles) of a charge–discharge cycle test. Simple and durable: the multi-metal oxyhydroxide and spinal oxide composite catalyst containing Co, Fe and Ni are synthesized from hydroxide and layered double hydroxide composite precursors and shows excellent bifunctional ORR/OER activities.![]()

Abstract
Nanostructured high-entropy materials such as alloys, oxides, etc., are attracting extensive attention because of their widely tunable surface electronic structure/catalytic activity through mixing different elements in one system. To further tune the catalytic performance and multifunctionality, the designed fabrication of multicomponent high-entropy nanocomposites such as high-entropy alloy@high-entropy oxides (HEA@HEO) should be very promising. In this work, we design a two-step alloying-dealloying strategy to synthesize ultra-small HEA nanoclusters (∼2 nm) loaded on nanoporous HEO nanowires, and the compositions of both the HEA and HEO can be adjusted separately. To demonstrate this concept, a seven-component HEA (PtPdAuAgCuIrRu) clusters@seven-component HEO (AlNiCoFeCrMoTi)3O4 was prepared, which is highly active for both oxygen evolution and reduction reactions. Our comprehensive experimental results and first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations clearly show that better oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance is obtained by optimizing the composition of the HEO support, and the seven-component HEA nanocluster is much more active for the ORR when compared with pure Pt due to the modified surface electronic structure. Specifically, the high-entropy composite exhibits an OER activity comparable to the best reported value, and the ORR activity exceeded the performance of commercial Pt/C in alkaline solutions with a record-low bifunctional ΔE of 0.61 V in 0.1 M KOH solution. This work shows an important route to prepare complex HEA@HEO nanocomposites with tuned catalytic performance for multifunctional catalysis and energy conversion.

Abstract
This study examines the atomic confinement of commercial Pt/C electrocatalysts. While a high electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen reduction reaction is important for proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) performance, the high stability of the electrocatalyst is essential for real applications under harsh operating conditions. The demands necessitate the development of advanced electrocatalysts that are resistant to corrosion. A combination of diazonium chemistry with Cu electrodeposition permits the selective protection of the carbon surface of the commercial Pt/C to prevent corrosion while improving wettability and ionic transfer. The resulting electrocatalysts exhibit an exceptional ORR stability after accelerated stress testing (AST) with a 250% improvement in comparison with unprotected commercial Pt/C. This novel electrochemical pathway provides a much-needed boost to carbon-based catalytic supports, which still face several stability challenges in energy applications in a harsh environment.

Abstract
Hybrid nanomaterials based on manganese, cobalt, and lanthanum oxides of different morphology and phase compositions were prepared using a facile single-step ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) process and tested as electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The structural and morphological characterizations were completed by XRD and SEM-EDS. Electrochemical performance was characterized by cyclic voltammetry and linear sweep voltammetry in a rotating disk electrode assembly. All synthesized materials were found electrocatalytically active for ORR in alkaline media. Two different manganese oxide states were incorporated into a Co3O4 matrix, δ-MnO2 at 500 and 600 °C and manganese (II,III) oxide-Mn3O4 at 800 °C. The difference in crystalline structure revealed flower-like nanosheets for birnessite-MnO2 and well-defined spherical nanoparticles for material based on Mn3O4. Electrochemical responses indicate that the ORR mechanism follows a preceding step of MnO2 reduction to MnOOH. The calculated number of electrons exchanged for the hybrid materials demonstrate a four-electron oxygen reduction pathway and high electrocatalytic activity towards ORR. The comparison of molar catalytic activities points out the importance of the composition and that the synergy of Co and Mn is superior to Co3O4/La2O3 and pristine Mn oxide. The results reveal that synthesized hybrid materials are promising electrocatalysts for ORR.

Abstract
Direct conversion of methane (CH4 ) to fuels and other high value-added chemicals is an attractive technology in the chemical industry; however, practical challenges to sustainable processes remain. Herein, we report the preparation of a heterostructured Co-doped MgO-based catalyst through topological transformation of a MgCo-layered double hydroxide (LDH) calcination from 200 to 1100 °C. Remarkably, the catalyst can activate CH4 coupling to produce C2 H6 with a selectivity of 41.60 % within 3 h under full-spectrum irradiation through calcination of LDH at 800 °C. Characterization studies and catalytic results suggest that the highly dispersed active sites and large interfaces amongst the Co-doped MgO-based catalysts enable surface activation of CH4 to methyl (CH3 *), in turn promoting coupling of CH3 * to C2 H6 . This study introduces a promising pathway for photodriven CH4 coupling to give high value-added chemicals by using layered double hydroxides as a precursor.

Abstract
The activation of molecular oxygen is a fundamental step in almost all catalytic oxidation reactions. We have studied this topic and the role of surface vacancies for Co3 O4 (100) films with a synergistic combination of experimental and theoretical methods. We show that the as-prepared surface is B-layer terminated and that mild reduction produces oxygen single and double vacancies in this layer. Oxygen adsorption experiments clearly reveal different superoxide species below room temperature. The superoxide desorbs below ca. 120 K from a vacancy-free surface and is not active for CO oxidation while superoxide on a surface with oxygen vacancies is stable up to ca. 270 K and can oxidize CO already at the low temperature of 120 K. The vacancies are not refilled by oxygen from the superoxide, which makes them suitable for long-term operation. Our joint experimental/theoretical effort highlights the relevance of surface vacancies in catalytic oxidation reactions.

Abstract
This paper presents a simple strategy for manufacturing bifunctional electrocatalysts-graphene nanosheets (GNS) coated with an ultrafine NiCo-MOF as nanocomposites (denoted NiCo-MOF@GNS) having a N-doped defect-rich and abundant cavity structure through one-pool treatment of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The precursors included N-doped dodecahedron-like graphene nanosheets (GNS), in which the NiCo-MOF was encompassed within the inner cavities of the GNS (NiCo-MOF@GNS) at the end or middle portion of the tubular furnace with several graphene layers. Volatile imidazolate N x species were trapped by the NiCo-MOF nanosheets during the pyrolysis process, simultaneously inserting N atoms into the carbon matrix to achieve the defect-rich porous nanosheets and the abundantly porous cavity structure. With high durability, the as-prepared nanomaterials displayed simultaneously improved performance in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and photocatalysis. In particular, our material NiCo-MOF@GNS-700 exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity, including a half-wave potential of 0.83 V (E ORR, 1/2), a low operating voltage of 1.53 V (E OER, 10) at 10 mA cm-2, a potential difference (ΔE) of 1.02 V between E OER, 10 and E ORR, 1/2 in 0.1 M KOH, and a low band gap of 2.61 eV. This remarkable behavior was due to the structure of the defect-rich porous carbon nanosheets and the synergistic impact of the NPs in the NiCo-MOF, the N-doped carbon, and NiCo-N x . Furthermore, the hollow structure enhanced the conductivity and stability. This useful archetypal template allows the construction of effective and stable bifunctional electrocatalysts, with potential for practical viability for energy conversion and storage.

Abstract
Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) occupies a pivotal position in fuel cell applications, and it is a challenge to obtain highly durable ORR catalysts. Herein, porous cobalt oxide microsphere growing at the surface of on nitrogen-doped graphitized-nano-diamond (CoOx/N-GND) was prepared using hydrothermal and subsequent heat treatment process. Porous cobalt oxide of high specific surface area could expose more surface Co2+that act as active sites than bulk one does. The doping of nitrogen also promotes the catalytic activity. Besides, nano-diamond (ND) ofsp3hybrid structure was used as an electronic conduction carriers of ultrahigh stability to improve the durability of catalytic composite. Prepared CoOx/N-GND shows a satisfactory half-wave potential of 0.82 V (versus RHE), which is close to that of Pt/C (0.85 V), an excellent methanol tolerance and a lower activity loss after 5000 cycles. These merits inspire the application of CoOx/N-GND as the cathode of Zn-air battery and the battery performance was evaluated in this work. In general, this work highlights an innovate approach to design and prepare highly durable catalyst.

Abstract
The increasing popularity of wearable electronic devices has led to the rapid development of flexible energy conversion systems. Flexible rechargeable zinc-air batteries (ZABs) with high theoretical energy densities demonstrate significant potential as next-generation flexible energy devices that can be applied in wearable electronic products. The design of highly efficient and air-stable cathodes that can electrochemically catalyze both the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are highly desirable but challenging. Flexible carbon-based catalysts for ORR/OER catalysis can be broadly categorized into two types: (i) self-supporting catalysts based on the in situ modification of flexible substrates; (ii) non-self-supporting catalysts based on surface coatings of flexible substrates. Methods used to optimize the catalytic performance include doping with atoms and regulation of the electronic structure and coordination environment. This review summarizes the most recently proposed strategies for the synthesis of designer carbon-based electrocatalysts and the optimization of their electrocatalytic performances in air electrodes. And we significantly focus on the analysis of the inherent active sites and their electrocatalytic mechanisms when applied as flexible ZABs catalysts. The findings of this review can assist in the design of more valuable carbon-based air electrodes and their corresponding flexible ZABs for application in wearable electronic devices.

Abstract
Nitrogen-doped carbon-supported metal nano-particles show great promise as high-performance catalysts for novel energies, organic synthesis, environmental protection, and other fields. The synergistic effect between nitrogen-doped carbon and metal nano-particles enhances the catalytic properties. Thus, how to effectively combine nitrogen-doped carbon with metal nano-particles is a crucial factor for the synthesis of novel catalysts. In this paper, we report on a facile method to prepare nitrogen-doped carbon-supported metal nano-particles by using dimethylgly-oxime as ligand. The nano-particles of Pd, Ni, Cu, and Fe were successfully prepared by the pyrolysis of the corresponding clathrate of ions and dimethylglyoxime. The ligand of dimethylglyoxime is adopted as the source for the nitrogen-doped carbon. The nano-structure of the prepared Pd, Ni, Cu, and Fe particles are confirmed by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and trans-mission electron microscopy tests. The catalytic performances of the obtained metal nano-particles for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are investigated by cyclic voltammetry, Tafel, linear sweeping voltammetry, rotating disc electrode, rotating ring disc electrode, and other technologies. Results show that the nitrogen-doped carbon-supported metal nano-particles can be highly efficient catalysts for ORR. The results of the paper exhibit a facile methodology to prepare nitrogen-doped carbon-supported metal nano-particles.

Abstract
The design of highly efficient and stable electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is still a great challenge. Herein, we prepared Co,N-codoped carbon nanocomposites (Co@NC-ZM) with entangled carbon nanotubes. The large Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area (604.7 m2 g-1), rich mesoporous feature, Co,N doping and synergetic effect between various species of Co@NC-ZM can expose more active sites and facilitate conductivity and mass transport. Benefiting from the above unique advantages, Co@NC-ZM exhibits excellent ORR performance with more positive onset potential (0.96 V) and half-wave potential (0.83 V) than those of commercial Pt/C (0.96 and 0.81 V, correspondingly). This work provides a new strategy for further exploring efficient non-precious-metal-based catalysts for ORR.

Abstract
The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is a significant cathode step in electrochemical devices, especially in water splitting, but developing efficient HER catalysts remains a great challenge. Herein, comprehensive density functional theory calculations are presented to explore the intrinsic HER behaviors of a series of ruthenium dichalcogenide crystals (RuX2 , X = S, Se, Te). In addition, a simple and easily scaled production strategy is proposed to synthesize RuX2 nanoparticles uniformly deposited on carbon nanotubes. Consistent with theoretical predictions, the RuX2 catalysts exhibit impressive HER catalytic behavior. In particular, marcasite-type RuTe2 (RuTe2 -M) achieves Pt-like activity (35.7 mV at 10 mA cm-2 ) in an acidic electrolyte, and pyrite-type RuSe2 presents outstanding HER performance in an alkaline media (29.5 mV at 10 mA cm-2 ), even superior to that of commercial Pt/C. More importantly, a RuTe2 -M-based proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer and a RuSe2 -based anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyzer are also carefully assembled, and their outstanding single-cell performance points to them being efficient cathode candidates for use in hydrogen production. This work makes a significant contribution to the exploration of a new class of transition metal dichalcogenides with remarkable activity toward water electrolysis.

Abstract
Defect control is a promising way to enhance the electrocatalysis performance of metal oxides. Oxygen vacancy enriched NiCo2O4 was successfully prepared using cold plasma. Oxygen as a plasma-forming gas introduces oxygen vacancies via electron etching. The concentration of oxygen vacancies can be controlled by different plasma-forming gas. CoO, which formed on the plasma samples, is beneficial for quick charge transfer and electrocatalytic performance. A high amount of nitrogen atoms of up to 10.1% was doped on NiCo2O4 because of the enriched oxygen vacancies and improved the stability of the oxygen defects and the conductivity of the catalyst. Electrocatalytic studies showed that the plasma-induced N-doped NiCo2O4 shows enhanced electrocatalytic performance for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). It shows a typical four-electron process that considerably improves the current density and onset potential. The HO2- % was as low as 0.59% and current density was 4.9 mA cm-2 at 0.2 V (Vs. RHE) on the plasma-treated NiCo2O4. Calculations based on density functional theory reveal the mechanism for the promotion of the catalytic ORR activity via plasma treatment. This increases the electron density near the Fermi level, reducing the work function, and changing the position of the d-band center.
