Bismuth iron molybdenum oxide solid solution: a novel and durable electrocatalyst for overall water splitting
Sakila Khatun, Poulomi Roy
Abstract
The drive for finding active bifunctional electrocatalysts for efficient overall water splitting continues in order to extract energy in the form of hydrogen as a clean fuel. Bismuth iron molybdenum oxide solid solution, composed of orthorhombic Bi2MoO6 as the major component and monoclinic Bi3(FeO4)(MoO4)2 as the minor component, has been identified as a potential electrocatalyst for the first time.
