摘要
The development of efficient inexpensive catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is one of the keys to the realization of energy conversion devices. Herein, we have synthesized a series of spinel-type metal oxides (Co1-xZnxFe2O4) by varying the amount of Zn substitution (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) using a simple one-step co-precipitation method. A combination of structural characterization and electrochemical analysis shows that the Co0.6Zn0.4Fe2O4 exhibits not only the most excellent ORR activity (half-wave potential: 0.815 V and Tafel slope: 76 mV dec-1) compared to the other samples with different Zn substitution but also the better stability than that of commercial Pt/C catalyst. The improved reason of ORR performance for the Co0.6Zn0.4Fe2O4 nanoparticles may be attributed to the Zn introduction and abundant oxygen vacancies. These discoveries will offer insights for exploring the synthesis of spinel-type oxides for their potential applications in oxygen-related energy conversion technologies.
