Balancing activity, stability and conductivity of nanoporous core-shell iridium/iridium oxide oxygen evolution catalysts
Abstract
Production of affordable, clean hydrogen relies on efficient oxygen evolution, but improving catalytic performance for the reaction in acidic media is challenging. Here the authors show how tuning the nanoporous morphology of iridium/iridium oxide leads to an improvement in activity/stability, compared with conventional iridium-based oxides.
