One-pot hydrothermal synthesis of nickel sulfide/oxide heterostructures for a sustainable water splitting electrocatalyst
Efficient and cost-effective electrocatalysts are essential for advancing water-splitting technologies, leading to sustainable hydrogen production. Herein, we have synthesized NiS/NiO heterostructures assembled on a nickel foam platform (NF-NiS/NiO) via a one-pot hydrothermal approach and explored for overall water splitting in an alkaline condition. A hierarchical NiS/NiO interface with interconnected ultrathin nanosheets was engineered within an extended porous network. Binder-free NF-NiS/NiO electrode exhibited overpotentials (η) of 220 mV and 112 mV to deliver 10 mA/cm² for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with Tafel slopes of 130 mV/dec and 87 mV/dec, respectively. The superior electrocatalytic activity is attributed to the synergistic effects of NiS and NiO nanocrystals, which enhance active site availability, facilitate charge transfer, and provide long-term stability over 40 h. Economical synthesis of NF–NiS/NiO hetero-nanostructures offers a stable, efficient, and scalable bifunctional electrode platform for sustainable water-splitting.
期刊介绍:
Materials Research Bulletin is an international journal reporting high-impact research on processing-structure-property relationships in functional materials and nanomaterials with interesting electronic, magnetic, optical, thermal, mechanical or catalytic properties. Papers purely on thermodynamics or theoretical calculations (e.g., density functional theory) do not fall within the scope of the journal unless they also demonstrate a clear link to physical properties. Topics covered include functional materials (e.g., dielectrics, pyroelectrics, piezoelectrics, ferroelectrics, relaxors, thermoelectrics, etc.); electrochemistry and solid-state ionics (e.g., photovoltaics, batteries, sensors, and fuel cells); nanomaterials, graphene, and nanocomposites; luminescence and photocatalysis; crystal-structure and defect-structure analysis; novel electronics; non-crystalline solids; flexible electronics; protein-material interactions; and polymeric ion-exchange membranes.
