Abstrakt: Metal organic framework (MOF) is currently-one of the key catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), but its catalytic performance is severely limited by electronic configuration. In this study, cobalt oxide (CoO) on nickel foam (NF) was first prepared, which then wrapped it with FeBTC synthesized by ligating isophthalic acid (BTC) with iron ions by electrodeposition to obtain CoO@FeBTC/NF p-n heterojunction structure. The catalyst requires only 255 mV overpotential to reach a current density of 100 mA cm -2 , and can maintain 100 h long time stability at 500 mA cm -2 high current density. The catalytic properties are mainly related to the strong induced modulation of electrons in FeBTC by holes in the p-type CoO, which results in stronger bonding and faster electron transfer between FeBTC and hydroxide. At the same time, the uncoordinated BTC at the solid-liquid interface ionizes acidic radicals which form hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl radicals in solution, capturing them onto the catalyst surface for the catalytic reaction. In addition, CoO@FeBTC/NF also has strong application prospects in alkaline electrolyzers, which only needs 1.78 V to reach a current density of 1 A cm -2 , and it can maintain long-term stability for 12 h at this current. This study provides a new convenient and efficient approach for the control design of the electronic structure of MOF, leading to a more efficient electrocatalytic process.
