An efficient and stable overall water splitting electrocatalyst is extremely crucial in hydrogen fuel generation. Herein, a nitrogen-doped CoP nanorod array over 3D porous Co foam (CoP-N/Co foam) is proposed as a bifunctional high-performance catalyst for the water splitting reaction. It can afford...
