Electrocatalytic oxygen evolution activity databased of nickel and cobalt-based phosphides

This database contains the experimental results of a series of Ni and Co-based phosphides to electrocatalyze OER reaction in alkaline solution. These metal phosphides are synthesized using solvothermal phosphidization method or electrodeposition method. The linear sweep voltammetry is acquired at scan rate lower than 5 mV s-1 in the OER region. The reference electrode is saturated calomel electrode. The counter electrode is a graphite rod. The 1 M KOH is used as the electrolyte, and the experiments are carried out using three-electrode system under room temperature. The experimental results for the cyclic voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy of some of the Ni and Co-based phosphides are also included. These experiments are also carried out in 1 M KOH at room temperature.
