摘要
Crystalline structure and surface features of metal oxide catalyst have important influence on catalysis, however, no research work has focused on the relationship between the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalytic activity and plane effect of Co3O4 nanocrystals. In this work, Co3O4 nanorods and nanocubes with different dominant exposed nanocrystalline planes ({110} and {100}) were synthesized to investigate the plane effects of Co3O4 nanocrystalline on the OER activity. Results show that the surface Co3 + species of the Co3O4 crystal should be the active sites for OER catalysis.
