Abstract
© 2022 American Chemical Society.Exposing facet and surface strain are critical factors affecting catalytic performance but unraveling the composition-dependent activity on specific facets under strain-controlled environment is still challenging due to the synthetic difficulties. Herein, we achieved a (001) facet-defined Co-Mn spinel oxide surface with different surface compositions using epitaxial growth on Co3O4 nanocube template. We adopted composition gradient synthesis to relieve the strain layer by layer, minimizing the surface strain effect on catalytic activity. In this system, experimental and calculational analyses of model oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity reveals a volcano-like trend with Mn/Co ratios because of an adequate charge transfer from octahedral-Mn to neighboring Co. Co0.5Mn0.5 as an optimized Mn/Co ratio exhibits both outstanding ORR activity (0.894 V vs RHE in 1 M KOH) and stability (2% activity loss against chronoamperometry). By controlling facet and strain, this study provides a well-defined platform for investigating composition-structure-activity relationships in electrocatalytic processes.
