“…Spinel cobalt oxide (Co 2+ Co 3+ 2 O 4 ), with edge‐sharing CoO 6 octahedra (Co 3+ centered) interconnected by corner‐sharing CoO 4 tetrahedra (Co 2+ centered), can accommodate vacancies and lattice defects that potentially act as active sites to promote electrochemical reactions. [4] Experimental works coupled with density functional theory (DFT) calculations have shown that Co 3 O 4 ,[ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ] Cu‐doped Co oxides,[ 11 , 12 , 13 ] and bimetallic NiCo 2 O 4 [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ] are highly active and stable catalysts towards OER and/or ORR in alkaline media, emphasizing their potential use in the electrolyzers and fuel cells. Additionally, some published studies demonstrate that these materials can be active in other electrolytes, and show their potential application in the aprotic Li−O 2 batteries.…”
