Modulating the crystalline phase and structure of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) for superior electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance is a significant but challenging topic. Herein, a facile CO 2 -assisted strategy is reported to fabricate a crystalline/amorphous NiFe-based MOF heterostructure ( c / a -NiFe-MOF) that exhibited excellent OER performance with a low overpotential of only 236 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm -2 and a small Tafel slope of 30 mV dec -1 . This work provides new insights for CO 2 -assisted preparation of novel MOF heterostructures with diverse crystalline phases and sheds light on the rational design of highly efficient OER electrocatalysts.
