Özet
Escalating global demands for sustainable and clean energy urges the conception of pivotal strategies to revolutionize the electrochemical oxygen evolution (OER) mechanisms by engineered efficiency routes. This study investigates the key differences and the resulting effects of doped and undoped perovskites oxides, strontium doped lanthanum and cerium oxides (SrCeLa2O3) (A = La, B = Ce) and lanthanum and cerium oxides (CeLa2O3) comparatively to nonperovskites materials. The underlying low impactful nonperovskites such as strontium-doped lanthanum oxides (SrLa2O3) and lanthanum oxides (La2O3) are opted in comparison to check the efficiency parameters and ongoing overpotential dominated OER problems. The electrochemical evaluation trends in relation to overpotential, Tafel plots, double layer capacitance (Cdl), tolerance factor, metal oxygen covalency (MOC), and vacant oxygen reserves are revealed with excellent outputs. Among all the operating variants, CeLa2O3 performed remarkably different comparatively to nonperovskites achieving a current density of 50 mAcm−2 at an overpotential of 380 mV for OER. This study also reveals the average electrocatalytic behavior of non-perovskites (SrLa2O3 and La2O3) mainly due to absence of B-site cation (Ce) and lack of oxygen vacancies for a continuous redox flow likely observed for CeLa2O3 and SrCeLa2O3. These findings deepen the understanding of perovskites tunability and their varying OER performances in comparison to nonperovskites and position CeLa2O3 and SrCeLa2O3 as tenable catalysts for sustainable energy production.
