A high-performance electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reactions based on electrochemical post-treatment of ultrathin carbon layer coated cobalt nanoparticles

Abstract

Electrochemical post-treatment of ultrathin carbon layer coated cobalt nanoparticles generates a novel electrocatalyst, affording a small overpotential of 333 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm−2 and a small Tafel slope of ∼58 mV per decade.
