ABSTRACT
Water electrolysis for H2 production is restricted by the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Using the thermodynamically more favorable hydrazine oxidation reaction (HzOR) to replace OER has attracted ever-growing attention. Herein, we report a twisted NiCoP nanowire array immobilized with Ru single atoms (Ru1 -NiCoP) as superior bifunctional electrocatalyst toward both HzOR and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), realizing an ultralow working potential of -60â
mV and overpotential of 32â
mV for a current density of 10â
mA cm-2 , respectively. Inspiringly, two-electrode electrolyzer based on overall hydrazine splitting (OHzS) demonstrates outstanding activity with a record-high current density of 522â
mA cm-2 at cell voltage of 0.3â
V. DFT calculations elucidate the cooperative Ni(Co)-Ru-P sites in Ru1 -NiCoP optimize H* adsorption, and enhance adsorption of *N2 H2 to significantly lower the energy barrier for hydrazine dehydrogenation. Moreover, a self-powered H2 production system utilizing OHzS device driven by direct hydrazine fuel cell (DHzFC) achieve a satisfactory rate of 24.0â
mol h-1 m-2 .
