Abstract
The design of bifunctional catalysts for water splitting by modifying the electronic structure of the catalyst. That bifunctional catalyst that is synthesized is a quaternary FeNi—PSe nanoporous film (FeNi—PSe NF). A self-supported FeNi—PSE NF is synthesized and used as an anode and a cathode in a two-electrode electrolytic cell. The cell is subjected to a water source, and the FeNi—PSe NFs split the water molecules to produce hydrogen fuel. The slightly oxidized FeNi—PSe surface serves as an active site for oxygen evolution reactions, making hydrogen evolution reactions and oxygen evolution reactions well-balanced, thereby improving electrolysis efficiency.
