Surface microstructures and oxygen evolution properties of cobalt oxide deposited on Ir (111) and Pt (111) single crystal substrates
Abstract: We investigated the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity changes of cobalt oxide (CoO x) thin films on Ir (111) and Pt (111) substrates by repeated OER measurements in 0.1 M KOH. Atomic force microscopy and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis of the as‐prepared CoO x/Ir (111) and CoO x/Pt (111) showed similar surface morphologies of the CoO x thin films and almost the same OER overpotentials, which were estimated to be around 430 mV. However, after three OER measurements, the overpotential of CoO x/Ir (111) decreased by 70 mV, whereas that of CoO x/Pt (111) increased slightly. Structural analysis showed that CoO x/Ir (111) revealed the island‐like nanostructures of CoO x dispersed on Ir (111) surface, accompanied by the generation of CoOOH. In contrast, for CoO x/Pt (111), the Pt (111) substrate remains covered by the CoO x thin film. The results suggest that the interaface at CoO x (CoOOH) nano‐islands and Ir (111) substrate are responsible for reducing the OER overpotential.
