Abstract

Abstract:

In this study, we fabricated a NiO_x film by electrodeposition of an ethanediamine nickel complex precursor (pH=11) on a fluorine-doped tin oxide substrate. The resulting film is robust and exhib-its high catalytic activity for electrochemical water oxidation. Water oxidation is initiated with an overpotential of 375 mV (1 mA/cm²) and a steady current density of 8.5 mA/cm² is maintained for at least 10 h at 1.3 V versus the normal hydrogen electrode. Kinetic analysis reveals that there is a 2e^-/3H⁺ pre-equilibrium process before the chemical rate-determining step. The low-cost preparation, robustness, and longevity make this catalyst competitive for applications in solar energy conversion and storage.
