摘要

阴离子交换膜燃料电池(AEMFC)是一种极具吸引力和成本效益的能源转换技术,因为它可以使用地球上丰富且低成本的非贵金属催化剂。然而,AEMFC 中用于催化氢氧化反应的非贵金属容易发生自氧化,导致不可逆转的失效。在这里,我们展示了一种量子井状催化结构(QWCS),它是通过将镍纳米粒子原子限制在掺碳的氧化钼/氧化钼异质结(C-MoOx/MoOx)中而构建的,可以选择性地转移氢氧化反应中的外部电子,同时自身仍保持金属性。镍纳米粒子的电子获得了 QWCS 提供的 1.11 eV 的势垒,从而使镍相对于可逆氢电极(VRHE)的稳定性高达 1.2 V。QWCS 催化的 AEMFC 实现了 486 mW mgNi-1 的高功率密度,并在关机-启动循环期间经受住了氢饥饿操作,而没有 QWCS 的对应 AEMFC 在一个循环中就失效了。

Quantum confinement-induced anti-electrooxidation of metallic nickel electrocatalysts for hydrogen oxidation
The anion-exchange-membrane fuel cell (AEMFC) is an attractive and cost-effective energy-conversion technology because it can use Earth-abundant and low-cost non-precious metal catalysts. However, non-precious metals used in AEMFCs to catalyse the hydrogen oxidation reaction are prone to self-oxidation, resulting in irreversible failure. Here we show a quantum well-like catalytic structure (QWCS), constructed by atomically confining Ni nanoparticles within a carbon-doped-MoOx/MoOx heterojunction (C-MoOx/MoOx) that can selectively transfer external electrons from the hydrogen oxidation reaction while remaining itself metallic. Electrons of Ni nanoparticles gain a barrier of 1.11 eV provided by the QWCS leading to Ni stability up to 1.2 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode (VRHE) whereas electrons released from the hydrogen oxidation reaction easily cross the barrier by a gating operation of QWCS upon hydrogen adsorption. The QWCS-catalysed AEMFC achieved a high-power density of 486 mW mgNi−1 and withstood hydrogen starvation operations during shutdown–start cycles, whereas a counterpart AEMFC without QWCS failed in a single cycle. Non-precious metals used at the anode of anion-exchange-membrane fuel cells to catalyse hydrogen oxidation are prone to self-oxidation. Here Zhou and colleagues report that a quantum well-like catalytic structure containing Ni nanoparticles within a C-doped MoOx/MoOx heterojunction can mitigate such degradation by a gating operation.
