Abstract

According to Yang Shao-Horn's principle, CoSe2 is a promising candidate as an efficient, affordable, and sustainable alternative electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction, owing to its well-suited electronic configuration of Co ions. However, the catalytic efficiency of pure CoSe2 is still f...
