| Zusammenfassung: | © 2024 Wiley‐VCH GmbH. The utilization of seawater for hydrogen production via water splitting is increasingly recognized as a promising avenue for the future. The key dilemma for seawater electrolysis is the incompatibility of superior hydrogen- and oxygen-evolving activities at ampere-scale current densities for both cathodic and anodic catalysts, thus leading to large electric power consumption of overall seawater splitting. Here, in situ construction of Fe4N/Co3N/MoO2 heterostructure arrays anchoring on metallic nickel nitride surface with multilevel collaborative catalytic interfaces and abundant multifunctional metal sites is reported, which serves as a robust bifunctional catalyst for alkaline freshwater/seawater splitting at ampere-level current density. Operando Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies combined with density functional theory calculations corroborate that Mo and Co/Fe sites situated on the Fe4N/Co3N/MoO2 multilevel interfaces optimize the reaction pathway and coordination environment to enhance water adsorption/dissociation, hydrogen adsorption, and oxygen-containing intermediate adsorption, thus cooperatively expediting hydrogen/oxygen evolution reactions in base. Inspiringly, this electrocatalyst can substantially ameliorate overall freshwater/seawater splitting at 1000 mA cm-2 with low cell voltages of 1.65/1.69 V, along with superb long-term stability at 500-1500 mA cm-2 for over 200 h, outperforming nearly all the ever-reported non-noble electrocatalysts for freshwater/seawater electrolysis. This work offers a viable approach to design high-performance bifunctional catalysts for seawater splitting |
