CuO Nanosheets Prepared by Dielectric Barrier Discharge Microplasma as Catalysts for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction
A method for constructing transition metal catalysts
for the oxygen
evolution reaction (OER) is proposed. Facile preparation is realized
in the case of no added metal source via dielectric barrier discharge
(DBD) microplasma under 10 min, and the thickness of the nanosheet
is only 6.5 nm. The prepared ultrathin CuO nanosheets on copper foam
(CuO UTNS/CF) display a catalytic activity of 262 mV overpotential
(η) at 10 mA cm–2 for the OER in alkaline
media. The as-prepared electrocatalyst guarantees appealing long-term
durability (>90 h) and a high turnover frequency (TOF) of 0.488
mol
O2 s–1 at 426 mV. Compared to CuO/CF
prepared traditionally, the overpotential of CuO UTNS/CF can be directly
reduced to 38 mV. Moreover, hydroxyl radicals (•OH) were identified as the intermediate products and a possible synthesis
mechanism was preliminarily put forward. As a facile technology for
the OER catalyst, we believe that DBD microplasma will provide a broad
perspective for researchers
