摘要
A novel heterostructured bimetallic Co/CoFe nanomaterial supported on nanoflower-like N-doped graphitic carbon (NC) is prepared through a strategy of coordination construction-cation exchange-pyrolysis.The Co/CoFe@NC exhibits high bifunctional activities with a remarkably small potential gap of 0.70 V between oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), which can be used in liquid and flexible quasi-solid-state rechargeable Zn–air batteries.The density functional theory calculations reveal optimized adsorption energies for intermediates of ORR and OER on heterostructured Co/CoFe@NC.
