Abstract
Perovskites are promising catalysts for oxygen evolution reactions (OER); among them, SrCoO3 is one of the best for these reactions. We study the O* intermediates and the role of surface oxygen vacancies of SrCoO3 during OER. A self-healing mechanism is proposed in which O* are incorporated into the surface to recover the redox capabilities of the material.
