Herein, we report a facile and effective way to fabricate three-dimension(3D) ordered mesoporous Co1-xFexP(x=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75) electrocatalyst.Benefiting from 3D ordered mesoporous pore channels and composition optimization, the Co0.75Fe0.25 P exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activities with low overpotentials of 270 and 209 mV at 10 mA cm^-2 for oxygen evolution reaction(OER)and hydrogen evolution reaction(HER), respectively, in the alkaline electrolyte along with a durable electrochemical stability. In addition, as both the cathode and anode, the Co0.75Fe0.25P also exhibits superior electrolysis water splitting performance with only an applied voltage of 1.63 V to attain a current density of 10 m A cm^-2 without obvious decay for 18 h,indicating that the Co0.75Fe0.25P is an efficient electrocatalyst for overall water splitting.展开更多
