Abstract Constructing multiple heterogeneous structures allows for improving the electrocatalytic activity of NiO by incorporating active sites. Unfortunately, poor conductivity makes efficient charge transfer within difficult, thereby inhibiting improvement its intrinsic activity. Herein, F‐doped NiO/Ni@C catalyst (F‐NiO/Ni@C) is fabricated via a new organic‐inorganic hybrid approach, showing both advanced hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and urea oxidation (UOR) The targeted F‐doping...

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) show great promise for electrocatalysis owing to their tunable ligand structures. However, the poor stability of MOFs impedes practical applications. Unlike general pathway engineering ligands, we report herein an innovative strategy leveraging metal nodes improve both catalytic activity and stability. Our electrolysis cell with a NiRh-MOF||NiRh-MOF configuration exhibited 10 mA cm-2 at ultralow voltage 0.06 V in alkaline seawater (with 0.3 M N2H4),...

By substituting the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with anodic urea oxidation (UOR), it not only reduces energy consumption for green hydrogen generation but also allows purification of urea-rich wastewater. Spin engineering d orbital and oxygen-containing adsorbates has been recognized as an effective pathway enhancing performance electrocatalysts. In this work, we report fabrication a bifunctional electrocatalyst composed amorphous RuO2-coated NiO ultrathin nanosheets (a-RuO2/NiO)...
