The scaling relationship among reaction intermediates with strongly correlated adsorption energy in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) severely restricts the energy-conversion efficiency of water electrolysis. For the conventional adsorbate evolution mechanism, breaking the scaling relationship rem...
