Abstract
The creation of positively charged active sites is crucial for enhancing the adsorption of negatively charged hydroxide ions, thereby improving the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER). We engineered LaPO4/Fe3(PO4)2 heterojunctions with a low flat-band potential, facilitating interfacial charge transfer and generation of positively charged holes, resulting in a highly active and stable OER catalyst at 500 mA cm-2.

Abstract
Constructing highly active and noble metal-free electrocatalysts is significant for the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, uniform carbon-coated CoP nanospheres (CoP/C) are developed by a direct impregnation coupling phosphorization approach. Importantly, CoP/C only takes a small overpotential of 230 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm-2 and displays a Tafel slope of 56.87 mV dec-1. Furthermore, the intrinsic activity of CoP/C is 21.44 times better than that of commercial RuO2 under an overpotential of 260 mV. In situ Raman spectroscopy studies revealed that a large number of generated Co-O and Co-OH species could facilitate the *OH adsorption, effectively accelerating the reaction kinetics. Meanwhile, the carbon shell with a large number of mesoporous pores acts as the chainmail of CoP, which could improve the active surface area of the catalyst and prevent the Co sites from oxidative dissolution. This work provides a facile and effective reference for the development of highly active and stable OER catalysts.
