Homogeneous Co3O4 film electrode with enhanced oxygen evolution electrocatalysis via surface reduction
thin film electrodes with enhanced oxygen evolution electrocatalysis were obtained
via
a controlled-synthesis route. Firstly CoO

colloids were synthesized
via
ethylene glycol solvothermal method and cast on conductive glass substrates. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysis of these as-prepared Co

thin films were then significantly enhanced
via
a simple surface reduction by NaBH

solution. The OER catalytic performance of the NaBH

-reduced thin films was strongly dependent on the NaBH

concentration. The use of NaBH

-reduced thin film electrodes for OER in alkaline solution supported higher current density and consequently negative shifts of the onset potential compared to that of the pristine. The optimal B
