A facile N-doped NiFe(B) (Oxy)hydroxide monolithic electrode for enhanced water oxidation.

N-doped NiFe(B) (oxy)hydroxide can promote the catalytic activity for an alkaline oxygen evolution reaction (OER) significantly, but fabrication is difficult. Herein, we introduced a B-induction route to the N-NiFe(B) (oxy)hydroxide monolithic electrode under a relatively low temperature. We observed an excellent catalytic performance benefiting from an optimal electronic structure, enlarged surface area and improved hydrophilicity. Moreover, this mild protocol could be extended to fabricate an S-doped NiFe-based catalyst. This research could aid large-scale manufacture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
