    摘要: It is of essential importance to design an electrocatalyst with excellent performance for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water splitting. Co3O4 has been developed as a highly efficient OER electrocatalyst, but it has almost no activity for HER. In a previous study, it has been demonstrated that the formation of oxygen vacancies (VO) in Co3O4 can significantly enhance the OER activity. However, the stability of VO needs to be considered, especially under the highly oxidizing conditions of the OER process. It is a big challenge to stabilize the VO in Co3O4 while reserving the excellent activity. Filling the oxygen vacancies with heteroatoms in the VO-rich Co3O4 may be a smart strategy to stabilize the VO by compensating the coordination numbers and obtain an even surprising activity due to the modification of electronic properties by heteroatoms. Herein, we successfully transformed VO-rich Co3O4 into an HER-OER electrocatalyst by filling the in situ formed VO in Co3O4 with phosphorus (P-Co3O4) by treating Co3O4 with Ar plasma in the presence of a P precursor. The relatively lower coordination numbers in VO-Co3O4 than those in pristine Co3O4 were evidenced by X-ray adsorption spectroscopy, indicating that the oxygen vacancies were created after Ar plasma etching. On the other hand, the relatively higher coordination numbers in P-Co3O4 than those in VO-Co3O4 and nearly same coordination number as that in pristine Co3O4 strongly suggest the efficient filling of P in the vacancies by treatment with Ar plasma in the presence of a P precursor. The Co–O bonds in Co3O4 consist of octahedral Co3+(Oh)–O and tetrahedral Co2+(Td)–O (Oh, octahedral coordination by six oxygen atoms and Td, tetrahedral coordination by four oxygen atoms). More Co3+(Oh)–O are broken when oxygen vacancies are formed in VO-Co3O4, and more electrons enter the octahedral Co 3d orbital than those entering the tetrahedral Co 3d orbital. Then, with the filling of P in the vacancy site, electrons are transferred out of the Co 3d states, and more Co2+(Td) than Co3+(Oh) are left in P-Co3O4. These results suggest that the favored catalytic ability of P-Co3O4 is dominated by the Co2+(Td) site. P-Co3O4 shows superior electrocatalytic activities for HER and OER (among the best non-precious metal catalysts). Owing to its superior efficiency, P-Co3O4 can directly catalyze overall water splitting with excellent performance. The theoretical calculations illustrated that the improved electrical conductivity and intermediate binding by P-filling contributed significantly to the enhanced HER and OER activity of Co3O4
