The development of readily available, highly efficient and stable electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is extremely significant to facilitate water splitting for the generation of clean hydrogen energy. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) exhibit promising electrocatalytic performan...
