Abstract

Perovskite-type transition metal oxides have emerged as promising electrocatalysts for various electrocatalytic reactions owing to their low cost, compositional tunability and high stability. However, insufficient electrocatalytic activities of pristine perovskite oxides hinder their pathway towards real-world applications. The incorporation of heteroatoms into perovskite oxide structures has been regarded as an efficient way to improve the electrocatalytic performance. This minireview summarizes the recent advances in the heteroatom doping of perovskite oxides as efficient electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). These heteroatom doping strategies are classified based on various types of doping sites. The mechanisms of improved electrocatalytic activities are discussed in detail within different doping sites and various kinds of dopants. Finally, the remaining challenges and perspectives are outlined for future developments of perovskite oxide-based catalysts.
