How oxidation state and lattice distortion influence the oxygen evolution activity in acid of iridium double perovskites

In view of iridium's scarceness and high cost, Ir-containing catalysts for water electrolyzers should have low loadings and maximal utilization. Here, we studied low-Ir-content, highly active, double perovskites (Sr2MIrO6, M = Ni, Co, Sc and Fe) for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acid c...
