Abstract

Energizing Cobalt on a 3D Electrode: An optically transparent mesoporous ITO film was derivatized with the novel proton reducing cobalt catalyst [Co]. The hybrid electrode showed high current densities, and spectroelectrochemical studies and extensive surface characterization demonstrate that the immobilized molecular catalyst remained intact on the electrode when applying a low potential.
