Simulated OH⁻ concentration distributions on HC-CoFeNi nanocones and corresponding OER polarization behavior before and after magnetic activation.

 

Major Contributions
 

1.Designed nanocone-structured CoFeNi catalysts that couple electric and magnetic fields to modulate interfacial microenvironments, concentrating OH⁻ ions and enhancing local field intensity for efficient OER kinetics. 

2.Revealed through in-situ Raman and ATR-FTIR analyses that near-field coupling accelerates metal hydroxylation, deprotonation, and Co⁴⁺ formation, driving rapid surface reconstruction and lattice oxygen activation. 

3.Demonstrated outstanding OER performance with a 400% increase in current density at 1.57 V vs RHE and prolonged stability at 500 mA cm⁻² for over 500 hours, validating field-guided catalyst activation as a strategy for durable, high-efficiency water oxidation.




主要貢獻
 

1.電磁場耦合調控界面微環境:設計了奈米錐(Nanocone)結構的 CoFeNi 催化劑,利用電場與磁場的耦合效應來調控界面微環境。此設計能有效富集(concentrate)$OH^-$ 離子並增強局部場強,進而大幅提升析氧反應(OER)的動力學效率。

2.原位光譜揭示高價重構機制:透過原位拉曼(In-situ Raman)與 ATR-FTIR 分析揭示,近場耦合效應(near-field coupling)加速了金屬的羥基化、去質子化以及 Co4+(高價鈷)的形成,進而驅動快速的表面重構與晶格氧活化(Lattice oxygen activation)。

3.卓越性能與穩定性驗證:該材料展現了卓越的 OER 性能,在 1.57 V (vs. RHE) 電位下,電流密度提升了 400%,並能在 500 mA cm-2 的大電流下穩定運行超過 500 小時。這證實了「場導引催化劑活化」是實現耐久且高效水氧化反應的可行策略。
