Zusammenfassung: | © 2023 Wiley-VCH GmbH. Spin-polarization is known as a promising way to promote the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER), since the intermediates and products endow spin-dependent behaviors, yet it is rarely reported for ferromagnetic catalysts toward acidic OER practically used in industry. Herein, the first spin-polarization-mediated strategy is reported to create a net ferromagnetic moment in antiferromagnetic RuO2 via dilute manganese (Mn2+ ) (S = 5/2) doping for enhancing OER activity in acidic electrolyte. Element-selective X-ray magnetic circular dichroism reveals the ferromagnetic coupling between Mn and Ru ions, fulfilling the Goodenough-Kanamori rule. The ferromagnetism behavior at room temperature can be well interpreted by first principles calculations as the interaction between the Mn2+ impurity and Ru ions. Indeed, Mn-RuO2 nanoflakes exhibit a strongly magnetic field enhanced OER activity, with the lowest overpotential of 143 mV at 10 mA cmgeo -2 and negligible activity decay in 480 h stability (vs 200 mV/195 h without magnetic field) as known for magnetic effects in the literature. The intrinsic turnover frequency is also improved to reach 5.5 s-1 at 1.45 VRHE . This work highlights an important avenue of spin-engineering strategy for designing efficient acidic oxygen evolution catalysts |
