Strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) is a crucial concept in heterogeneous catalysis, which has been utilized to design efficient catalysts for electrocatalytic overall water splitting. Herein, a novel strong phosphide-metaphosphate interaction (SPmPI) is discovered in the RuP/CoNiPO catalyst for the first time. The SPmPI leads to efficient electron transfer from RuP to CoNiPO support, endowing the catalyst with a unique coordination environment of Ru-P and Ru-O, which is demonstrated to greatly facilitate the rate-determining water dissociation step. As a result, the RuP/CoNiPO catalyst with proper Ru-P and Ru-O coordination numbers requires an ultralow overpotential of 27 mV to deliver a current density of 10 mA cm for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline media. Moreover, the catalyst inherits the remarkable catalytic activity from the CoNiPO support for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and therefore is also effective for overall water splitting (requiring 1.56 V to achieve 10 mA cm current density). This work not only reports a highly efficient catalyst for electrocatalytic overall water splitting, but also provides a novel concept of SPmPI for designing supported catalyst in heterogeneous catalysis.
