Abstract
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) plays a crucial role as a counter half-reaction for both electrochemical hydrogen production through water splitting and the generation of valuable carbon compounds via CO2 reduction. To overcome the sluggish kinetics of the OER, significant efforts have been devoted to developing cost-effective, sustainable, and efficient electrocatalysts, with transition-metal-based catalysts emerging as promising candidates. Herein, we successfully synthesized a core-shell type nanostructure of Fe-doped CoMoOx/CoMoOx (CMFO), which exhibits excellent electrocatalytic properties for OER. The presence of an amorphous layer of Fe-doped CoMoOx with abundant oxygen vacancies, along with the stability of a key OER intermediate, *O, contributes to the enhanced activity of CMFO catalyst compared to pristine CoMoOx (CMO). The optimized catalyst of CMFO-550 achieved much lower overpotential and Tafel slope and also exhibited better remarkable long-term stability for over 90 h compared to CMO-550. These findings highlight the potential of CMFO-550 as a cost-effective and highly efficient electrocatalyst for the OER. The successful development of this core-shell nanostructure opens up a new opportunity for the design and synthesis of advanced electrocatalysts for the OER, with implications for various applications in energy conversion and storage.

Abstract
In this study, various two-dimensional (2D) materials were used as supporting materials for the bimetallic Co and Mo sulfide/oxide (CMSO) heterostructure. The water electrolysis activity of CMSO supported on reduced graphene oxide (rGO), graphite carbon nitride (gC3N4), and siloxene (SiSh) was better than that of pristine CMSO. In particular, rGO-supported CMSO (CMSO@rGO) exhibited a large surface area and a low interface charge-transfer resistance, leading to a low overpotential and a Tafel slope of 259 mV (10 mA/cm2) and 85 mV/dec, respectively, with excellent long-term stability over 40 h of continuous operation in the oxygen evolution reaction.

Abstract
Flower-like cobalt-molybdenum mixed-oxide microspheres (CoMo-FMs) with hierarchical architecture were successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal process and subsequent calcination step. The characterization results show that CoMo-FMs were assembled from ultrathin mesoporous nanosheets with thicknesses of around 4.0 nm, providing the composite with a large pore volume and a massive surface area. The synthesized CoMo-FMs were employed as catalysts for the aerobic oxidative desulfurization (AODS) of fuel, and the reaction results show that the optimal catalyst (CoMo-FM-2) demonstrated an outstanding catalytic performance. Over CoMo-FM-2, various thiophenic sulfides could be effective removed at 80-110 °C under an atmospheric pressure, and a complete conversion of sulfides could be achieved in at least six consecutive cycles without a detectable change in chemical compositions. Further, the catalytic mechanism was explored by conducting systemic radical trapping and transformation experiments, and the excellent catalytic performance for CoMo-FMs should be mainly due to the synergistic effect of Mo and Co elements.

Abstract
Developing bifunctional electrocatalysts with efficient and stable catalytic performance at high current density to improve the productivity of water splitting is important for relieving the environmental pollution and energy crisis. Herein, the Ni4Mo and Co3Mo alloy nanoparticles were anchored on MoO2 nanosheets (H-NMO/CMO/CF-450) by annealing the NiMoO4/CoMoO4/CF (CF: self-made cobalt foam) under Ar/H2 atmosphere. Benefitting from the nanosheets structure, synergistic effect of the alloys, existence of oxygen vacancy and the cobalt foam with smaller pore sizes as conductive substrate, the self-supported H-NMO/CMO/CF-450 catalyst demonstrates outstanding electrocatalytic performance, which delivers small overpotential of 87 (270) mV at 100 (1000) mA·cm-2 for HER and 281 (336) mV at 100 (500) mA·cm-2 for OER in 1 M KOH. Meanwhile, the H-NMO/CMO/CF-450 catalyst is used as working electrodes for overall water splitting, which just require 1.46 V @ 10 mA·cm-2 and 1.71 V @ 100 mA·cm-2, respectively. More importantly, the H-NMO/CMO/CF-450 catalyst can stabilize for 300 h at 100 mA·cm-2 in both HER and OER. This research provides an idea for the preparation of stable and efficient catalysts at high current density.

Abstract
Hematite is a potential photoelectrode for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. Nevertheless, its water oxidation efficiency is highly limited by its significant photogenerated carrier recombination, poor conductivity and slow water oxidation kinetics. Herein, under low-vacuum (LV) conditions, we fabricated a CoMoO4 layer on oxygen-vacancy-modified hematite (CoMo-Fe2O3 (LV)) for the first time for efficient solar water splitting. The existence of oxygen vacancies can significantly facilitate the electrical conductivity, while the large onset potential along with oxygen vacancies can be lowered by the CoMoO4 with accelerated water oxidation kinetics. Therefore, a high photocurrent density of 3.53 mA cm-2 at 1.23 VRHE was obtained for the CoMo-Fe2O3 (LV) photoanode. Moreover, it can be further coupled with the FeNiOOH co-catalyst to reach a benchmark photocurrent of 4.18 mA cm-2 at 1.23 VRHE, which is increased around 4-fold compared with bare hematite (0.90 mA cm-2). The combination of CoMoO4, FeNiOOH, and oxygen vacancies may be used as a reasonable strategy for developing high-efficiency hematite-based photoelectrodes for solar water oxidation.

Abstract
The development of high-performance, low-cost and rapid-production bifunctional electrocatalysts towards overall water splitting still poses huge challenges. Herein, the authors utilize a facile hydrothermal method to synthesize a novel structure of Co-doped ammonium lanthanum molybdate on Ni foams (Co-ALMO@NF) as self-supported electrocatalysts. Owing to large active surfaces, lattice defect and conductive channel for rapid charge transport, Co-ALMO@NF exhibits good electrocatalytic performances which requires only 349/341 mV to achieve a high current density of 600 mA cm-2 for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER), respectively. Besides, a low cell voltage of 1.52 V is required to reach the current density of 10 mA cm-2 in alkaline medium along with an excellent long-term stability for two-electrode configurations. Density functional theory calculations are performed to reveal the reaction mechanism on Co-ALMO@NF, which shows that the Mo site is the most favorable ones for HER, while the introduction of Co is beneficial to reduce the adsorption intensity on the surface of Co-ALMO@NF, thus accelerating OER process. This work highlighted the importance of the structural design for self-supporting electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Molybdenum diselenide and cobalt diselenide have been commonly implemented in electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, there have been few research on the creation of their three-phase heterojunctions and the associated HER process. Herein, we constructed a three-phase heterostructure sample consisting of orthorhombic CoSe2 , cubic CoSe2 and MoSe2 and we investigated its HER performance. The sample shows microsphere morphology composed of nanosheets with interfacial interactions between the components. It possesses an overpotential of -136 mV at -10 mA cm-2 in acid medium, which is superior to that of single component and most two-phase heterostructures. Especially, the overpotential at -200 mA cm-2 is smaller than that of Pt/C. The excellent performance can be attributed to the d-orbital upshift of the Co active sites due to charge redistribution between the three-phase heterojunction and the optimization of the hydrogen free energy. This work provides inspiration for exploring the application of other multi-component heterojunctions in electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution.

Abstract
In this study, magnetic CoMoO4/CoFe2O4 (CMO/CFO) nanospheres with a core-shell structure were synthesized via two-step hydrothermal methods. The obtained particles were employed as catalysts to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and degrade methylene blue (MB). The physico-chemical characterizations of the synthesized CMO/CFO showed that the CMO shell contributed to the enhancement of redox conversion and the increase in the concentration of oxygen vacancies (OVs). By examining reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the CMO/CFO/PMS system, the MB degradation was dominated by a non-radical pathway, and 1O2 was identified as the most abundant ROS. Besides, the CMO/CFO exhibited faster reaction kinetics than the pristine CFO. Moreover, the magnetic properties guaranteed the recycling and reuse of CMO/CFO, and the removal rate of MB was maintained at ∼94% after continuous use five times. Both the tolerance to SO42-and the wide pH range where the material is applicable make it a promising catalyst for dyeing wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation induced by tricobalt tetroxide spinel (Co3O4) has been confirmed as a typical Haber-Weiss reaction, while free radicals were once considered as the dominated reactive species in the previous studies. However, the catalytic mechanism of the spongy Co3O4 driven PMS activation was surprisingly found as a radical/nonradical mixed process rather than a pure radical process in the present work. The important role of sulfate radical (SO4-) was confirmed through the quenching experiments. Despite the inhibition of furfuryl alcohol (FFA) and 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ) on degradation was generally accepted as the evidence to support the existence of 1O2 and O2-, additional experiments using methyl phenyl sulfoxide (PMSO) as the indicator indeed verified high-valent-cobalt-oxo rather than 1O2 and O2- dominated the very early reaction stage. Notably, instead of homogeneous Co3+, heterogeneous Co(IV) = O on catalyst surface was believed to be responsible for the oxidation of organics. Spongy Co3O4 not only possessed stronger catalytic ability than commercial Co3O4 (k[spongy Co3O4] = 0.74 min-1, k[Co3O4] = 0.08 min-1), but also owned preferable stability. The performance of catalytic system was barely affected by the solution pH under the near neutral condition. Besides, little suppression of the widely existing anions on the degradation indicated the potential application of spongy Co3O4/PMS system. This study provides a reliable oxidation technology for the removal of organic pollutants, and sheds new light on the cobalt oxide triggered PMS activation process.

Abstract
The transition metal-based catalysts have excellent electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction catalytic activity in alkaline electrolytes, attracting a significant number of researchers’ attention. Herein, we used two-step hydrothermal and solvothermal methods to prepare a Ni(OH)2/MoS2/NF electrocatalyst. The electrocatalyst displayed outstanding OER activity in 1.0 M KOH electrolyte with lower overpotential (296 mV at 50 mA·cm−2) and remarkable durability. Comprehensive analysis shows that reinforcement of the catalytic function is due to the synergistic effect between Ni(OH)2 and MoS2, which can provide more highly active sites for the catalyst. This also provides a reliable strategy for the application of heterogeneous interface engineering in energy catalysis.

Abstract
Increasing the metal loading and downsizing the metal particle size are two effective ways to boost the electrochemical performance of catalysts. However, it is difficult to simultaneously increase the metal loading and reduce the particle size since isolated individual atoms are easy to aggregate into nanoparticles when increasing the metal loading. To tackle this contradiction, we report a bottom-up ligand-mediated strategy to facilely prepare ultrafine CoOx nanoclusters anchored on a Co-N-containing carbon matrix (CoOx @Co-NC). The co-exist of N and O atoms prevent Co atoms agglomerating into large particles and allowing the formation of ultrafine dispersed Co species with large Co loading (up to 20 wt.%). Since the relationship between ultrasmall size and large metal loading is well balanced, the CoOx nanoclusters have no inhibitory effect, but facilitate the catalytic performance of Co-N4 sites during OER process. Consequently, due to the synergistic effect of ultrafine CoOx nanoclusters and Co-N4 macrocycles, the as-synthesized CoOx @Co-NC exhibit promising OER activity (η10 =370 mV, Tafel plot=40 mV/dec), bettering than that of benchmark RuO2 (η10 =411 mV, Tafel plot=72 mV/dec). This ligand-mediated strategy to synthesize carbonaceous materials containing dual active centers with large metal loading is promising for developing active and stable catalysts for electrocatalytic applications.

The electrochemical immunosensor of the "signal on" strategy that activates MMoO4 (M = Co, Ni) peroxidase with Cu2+ to achieve ultrasensitive detection of CEA. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1176:338757.

Abstract
A new type of ultrasensitive electrochemical immunosensor with "signal on" strategy was designed for quantitative detection of CEA. The sensing strategy design is based on the following principles: We use HMSNs-Cu2+@HA as the signal probe, the structure of HA is destroyed under acidic conditions, and the released Cu2+ activates the substrate material MMoO4 (M = Co, Ni) Peroxidase activity initiates the reaction of catalytic H2O2 and realizes the "signal on" condition of electrical signals. This strategy has the following advantages: (1) HA coating of HMSNs-Cu2+ can prevent Cu2+ leakage, has good biocompatibility and can be connected with more antibodies. (2) The prepared sensor has the characteristics of high sensitivity and a low detection limit. When the electrode substrate was CoMoO4, the detection range of the immunosensor was 0.01 pg/mL-40 ng/mL, and the detection limit was 0.0035 pg/mL (S/N = 3). This work innovatively applies the catalytic activity of metal ion-activated nanozymes in the detection of CEA, providing a new perspective for the monitoring and analysis of cancer markers.

Abstract
Designing highly active and robust electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is crucial for many renewable energy storage and conversion devices. Here, self-supported monolithic hybrid electrodes that are composed of bimetallic cobalt-molybdenum nitride nanosheets vertically aligned on 3D and bicontinuous nanoporous gold (NP Au/CoMoNx ) are reported as highly efficient electrocatalysts to boost the sluggish reaction kinetics of water oxidation in alkaline media. By virtue of the constituent CoMoNx nanosheets having large accessible CoMoOx surface with remarkably enhanced electrocatalytic activity and the nanoporous Au skeleton facilitating electron transfer and mass transport, the NP Au/CoMoNx electrode exhibits superior OER electrocatalysis in 1 m KOH, with low onset overpotential (166 mV) and Tafel slope (46 mV dec-1 ). It only takes a low overpotential of 370 mV to reach ultrahigh current density of 1156 mA cm-2 , ≈140-fold higher than free CoMoNx nanosheets. The electrocatalytic performance makes it an attractive candidate as the OER catalyst in the water electrolysis.

Abstract
A porous ZnCo2O4 micro-rice like microstructure was synthesized via calcination of a Zn–Co MOF precursor at an appropriate temperature. The as-prepared ZnCo2O4 sample presented good electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction performance with a small overpotential (η10 = 389 mV) and high stability in basic electrolyte. Furthermore, in basic medium, the as-synthesized ZnCo2O4 micro-rice also showed good electrocatalytic activity for glucose oxidation. A ZnCo2O4 micro-rice modified glass carbon electrode may be used as a potential non-enzymatic glucose sensor. The excellent electrocatalytic OER and glucose oxidation performances of ZnCo2O4 might be attributed to the unique porous structure formed by the nanoparticles. The porous architecture of the micro-rice can provide a large number of electrocatalytically active sites and high electrochemical surface area (ECSA). The result may offer a new way to prepare low-cost and high performance oxygen evolution reaction and glucose oxidation electrocatalysts. A porous ZnCo2O4 micro-rice like microstructure was synthesized via calcination of a Zn–Co MOF precursor at an appropriate temperature.![]()

Abstract
Implementing the hierarchical structures of non-noble-metal-based electrocatalysts and modulating their composition can help accelerate surface reactions and fulfill the promise of renewable energy devices via water splitting. Herein, molybdenum-based compounds are constructed on activated nickel foam (act-NF) by a one-step hydrothermal growth. The product generated on the act-NF is NixCo1-xMoO4@CoMoO4, with a novel 3D hierarchical heterostructure, wherein the one-dimensional CoMoO4 nanorods are hierarchically integrated with the two-dimensional NixCo1-xMoO4 nanosheets (NCMO@CMO/act-NF). The formation of NixCo1-xMoO4@CoMoO4 attributes to the release and diffusion of Ni2+ from act-NF. Heterogeneous NixCo1-xMoO4@CoMoO4 has compositional differences, and synergistic interaction between cobalt and nickel results in the modulated electronic states. Meanwhile, the hierarchical structure facilitates the exposure of active sites. Combining these two advantages, NCMO@CMO/act-NF presents a low η10 value of 61 and 180 mV in 1.0 M KOH for the HER and OER, respectively, and it shows a low cell voltage of 1.46 V for overall water splitting with robust stability. DFT calculations reveal that Ni doping leads to the charge depletion of Co, which further optimizes the d-band center of metal sites and tunes the adsorption of adsorbates to facilitate the water splitting reaction. Thus, a promising strategy of incorporating the nanostructure design with compositional modulation is presented to develop functional materials for energy conversion.

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
As a typical chemical hydride, ammonia borane (AB) has received extensive attention because of its safety and high hydrogen storage capacity. The aim of this work was to develop a cost-efficient and highly reactive catalyst for hydrolyzing AB. Herein, we synthesized a series of CuxCo1–xMoO4 dispersed on graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) to dehydrogenate AB. Among those CuxCo1–xMoO4/g-C3N4 catalysts, Cu0.4Co0.6MoO4/g-C3N4 exhibited the highest site time yield (STY) value of 75.7 m o l H 2 m o l c a t − 1 m i n − 1 with a low activation energy of 14.46 kJ mol−1. The STY value for Cu0.4Co0.6MoO4/g-C3N4 was about 4.3 times as high as that for the unsupported Cu0.4Co0.6MoO4, indicating that the g-C3N4 support plays a crucial role in improving the catalytic activity. Considering its low cost and high catalytic activity, our Cu0.4Co0.6MoO4/g-C3N4 catalyst is a strong candidate for AB hydrolysis for hydrogen production in practical applications.

Abstract
To realize the effective conversion of renewable energy through water decomposition, efficient electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are essential. In this article, PBA@POM was successfully prepared with a Prussian blue analogue (PBA) as the initial structure. A facile hydrothermal process is reported for obtaining PBA@POM by etching the cubic PBA with a strong Brønsted acid, H3 PMo12 O40 (HPMo). The hollow cube structure not only exposes more active sites but also promotes electron transport, which results in excellent electrocatalytic activity for the OER. Compared with the PBA, which initially simply adhered to POM, the optimum PBA@POM hybrids display remarkably enhanced OER catalytic activity, with an almost constant overpotential of 440 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 and a small Tafel slope (23.45 mV dec-1 ). The facilely prepared PBA@POM with good electrochemical activity and stability promises great potential for the OER.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries are considered the most promising power source for electrical energy storage systems because of the abundance of sodium and their significant cost advantages. However, high-performance electrode materials are required for their successful application. Herein, we report a monoclinic-type CoMoO4 material which is synthesized by a simple solution method. An optimized calcination temperature with a high crystallinity and a rodlike morphology of the material are selected after analyzing the as-synthesized powder by temperature-dependent time-resolved X-ray diffraction. The CoMoO4 rods exhibit initial discharge and charge capacities of 537 and 410 mA h g-1, respectively, when used as an anode for sodium-ion batteries. The sodium diffusion coefficient in the bimetallic CoMoO4 anode is measured using the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique and calculated in the range of 1.565 × 10-15 to 4.447 × 10-18 cm2 s-1 during the initial cycle. Further, the reaction mechanism is investigated using ex situ X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and the obtained results suggest an amorphous-like structure and reduction/oxidation of Co and Mo during the sodium insertion/extraction process. Ex situ transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectroscopy images of the CoMoO4 anode in fully discharged and recharged state reveal the rodlike morphology with homogenous element distribution.

Abstract
Manipulation of interfacial charge separation and transfer is one of the primary breakthroughs to improve the water oxidation activity and stability of BiVO4 photoanode. In the present work, a CoMoO4-coupled BiVO4 (BiVO4/CoMoO4) film was designed and prepared as the photoanode for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation. Compared with the bare BiVO4 film, obviously improved PEC water oxidation performance was observed on the BiVO4/CoMoO4 film. Specifically, a higher water oxidation photocurrent density of 3.04 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V versus RHE was achieved on the BiVO4/CoMoO4 photoanode, which is of about 220% improvement over bare BiVO4 photoanode (1.34 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V vs RHE). In addition, the BiVO4/CoMoO4 film photoanode was of better stability and faster hole-to-oxygen kinetics for water oxidation, without significant activity attenuation for 6 h of reaction at 0.65 V versus RHE. The enhanced water oxidation performance on the BiVO4/CoMoO4 film photoanode can be ascribed to the synergistic effect of the following factors: (i) thermodynamically, the photogenerated holes of BiVO4 are directionally transferred to CoMoO4 through their physical coupling interface and valance band potential matching; and (ii) kinetically, the transferred holes induce the formation of Co3+-active sites on CoMoO4 that could synergistically oxidize H2O to molecular O2 with stable activity.

Abstract
High-security deformable energy-storage devices that are mechanically robust, with considerable energy and power densities are becoming desirable for smart wearable electronics. Here, a highly flexible hydrogel-based all-solid-state hybrid supercapacitor was rationally designed and assembled, with unique NiCo2O4@NixCoyMoO4 (x : y = 3 : 1) nanostructures as the electrode, which was bio-inspired by the curling up and relaxation of hedgehogs. The hybrid supercapacitor shows no obvious decay in capacitance during bending to different states, indicating its outstanding flexibility and mechanical stability. The capacitance was still maintained at 92.0% of the initial value, even after continuous bending for 3000 cycles. The highly monodisperse NiCo2O4@NixCoyMoO4 nanostructures releasing stress during bending is responsible for the favorable stability and flexibility. Furthermore, the hybrid supercapacitor displayed outstanding electrochemical performance, with a high specific capacitance of 207 F g-1 at 1 A g-1, a high energy density of 64.7 W h kg-1 at 749.6 W kg-1, and favorable cycling stability (nearly 100% after 10 000 cycles). The flexible hybrid supercapacitor could be charged with a solar cell and served as the power source to light up LEDs. This simple and reliable hybrid supercapacitor, with extraordinary mechanical stability and electrochemical performance, is a promising power source for smart wearable electronics.

Abstract
The utilization of metal alkoxides as single-source precursors for (mixed-)oxide materials offers remarkable benefits, such as the possibility to precisely control the metal ratio in the resulting material, highly homogeneous distribution of the elements in the film, and the low temperatures required for film processing. Herein we report on the isolation and characterization of the bimetallic Co-Mo alkoxide [Co3 Mo4 O10 (OCH3 )10 (dmf)4 ] (Co3 Mo4 ; dmf=N,N-dimethylformamide), which was prepared by the anion metathesis reaction of the corresponding metal chlorides. The Co-Mo alkoxide was explored as a well-defined precursor of cobalt oxide catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline electrolyte MOH. The catalysts demonstrated excellent activity in the OER, manifested in low onset potentials and Tafel slopes and superb stability under the operating conditions both in alkaline and nearly neutral media. It was observed that the nature of the metal cation of the alkaline electrolyte MOH (M+ =Li+ , Na+ , K+ , Cs+ ) greatly affected the catalytic performance of the material. We propose that the positive effect of larger metal cations on the film activity in the OER could be explained by the higher hydration enthalpies of larger ions and enhanced mass transport within a larger interlayer space between the [CoO2 ]δ-∞ sheets of the in situ formed binary oxides. It may be deduced that this trend is universal and may be extended to other types of metal oxides forming layered structures during the OER.

Abstract
The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a complex multi-step four-electron process showing sluggish kinetics. Layered double hydroxides (LDH) were reported as promising catalysts for the OER, but their low electrical conductivity restricts their widespread applications. To overcome this problem, a composite material containing Mn-Co LDH ultrathin nanosheet and highly conductive graphene was synthesized for the first time. Benefited from the high electrocatalytic activity and the superior charge transfer ability induced by these components, the new material shows superior OER activity. Used as the OER catalyst, a high current density of 461 mA cm−2 at 2.0 V vs. RHE (reversible hydrogen electrode) was measured besides shows a low overpotential of 0.33 V at 10 mA cm−2. Moreover, the new composite also shows a superior bifunctional water splitting performance as catalyst for the OER and HER (hydrogen evolution reaction) catalysts. Our results indicate that the presented material is a promising candidate for water splitting which is cheap and efficient.

Abstract
Thin film of amorphous tungsten-doped cobalt oxide (W:CoO) was successfully grown on a conducting electrode via an electrochemical oxidation process employing a [Co(WS4 )2 ]2- deposition bath. The W:CoO catalyst displays an attractive performance for the oxygen evolution reaction in an alkaline solution. In an NaOH solution of pH 13, W:CoO operates with a moderate onset overpotential of 230 mV and requires 320 mV overpotential to generate a catalytic current density of 10 mA cm-2 . A low Tafel slope of 45 mV decade-1 was determined, indicating a rapid O2 -evolving kinetics. The as-prepared W:CoO belongs to the best cobalt oxide-based catalysts ever reported for the oxygen evolution (OER) reaction.

Abstract
It is highly desirable to design and develop earth-abundant electrocatalysts for efficient and durable oxygen evolution reaction (OER) under alkaline conditions. In this communication, we demonstrate the development of CaMoO4 nanosheet arrays on nickel foam (CaMoO4/NF) as a durable high-performance non-noble-metal electrocatalyst for the OER. CaMoO4/NF shows high catalytic activity and needs an overpotential of only 345 mV to attain a geometrical catalytic current density of 50 mA cm-2 in 1.0 M KOH. Notably, it also shows high long-term electrochemical durability for at least 25 h.
