Description:

(abstract)

Hydrogen fuel has long been considered a promising and practical alternative to conventional fossil fuels for shaping the future of our energy landscape. The electrocatalytic water-splitting technique, a sustainable and eco-friendly technology, provides a viable solution for efficiently and abundantly producing high-purity hydrogen on a large scale. However, practical applications of this technology require continuous improvement in the reaction kinetics for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) at the anode and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at the cathode.
The roles and mechanisms of external physical field assistance in HER and OER have garnered increasing attention. External fields such as electric fields, magnetic fields, strain, light, temperature, and ultrasound can be applied to synthesis and electrocatalysis. This paper first provides a summary of research on the synthesis of physical field-assisted electrolytic water catalysts. It then classifies studies on field-assisted HER and OER based on different mechanisms. Finally, it outlines the key challenges and prospects in this rapidly evolving research field.
