In this study, by regulating the distinctive geometric sites in spinel, Fe occupies the octahedral sites (Fe3+ (Oh)) and confines Co to the tetrahedral site (Co2+ (Td)), resulting in a strikingly high activity (ηj = 10 mA cm −2 = 229 mV and ηj = 100 mA cm −2 = 281 mV). Further enrichment of Fe ions would occupy the tetrahedral sites to decline the amount of Co2+ (Td) and deteriorate the OER activity. It is also found that similar tafel slope and peak frequency in Bode plot of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy indicate that Co2+ (Td) ions are primarily in charge of water oxidation catalytic center. By means of electrochemical techniques and in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy, it is proposed that Fe3+ (Oh) ions mainly confine cobalt ions to the tetrahedral site to restrain the multipath transfer of cobalt ions during the dynamic structural transformation between spinel and oxyhydroxide, continuously activating the catalytic behavior of Co2+ (Td) ions. This material-related insight provides an indication for the design of highly efficient OER electrocatalysts. © 2017 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim |
