Accelerated Surface Reconstruction in Double Perovskites: Enhancing Oxygen Evolution Reaction Activity Through Fe‐Doping

open access: yesSusMat, EarlyView.
A novel double perovskite BaSrNi0.9Fe0.1WO6 (BSNFW) is developed with enhanced oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity owing to synergistic Ni‒Fe interactions occurring through bridging O species. This drives an accelerated surface reconstruction that equilibrates an oxidized and highly active surface configuration in situ, without the need for ...
