The development of durable, beneficial, and highly active non-precious metal-based electrocatalysts for hydrogen generation is a vital concern. This study proposes an effective strategy for the construction of Fe doped CoP nanosheet arrays wrapped by graphene (F0.25CP-G) on nickel foam as an efficient electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In this design, the final catalyst possesses a combination of the high conductivity of graphene, great surface porosity, and the intrinsic electrocatalytic activity of the F0.25CP-G which results in high-performance electrocatalytic activity toward the HER and OER. Therefore, the as-synthesized F0.25CP-G catalyst can achieve overpotentials of 66 mV and 230 mV for the HER and OER, respectively, in KOH at 10 mA cm-2. Furthermore, a practical electrolyzer (F0.25CP-G||F0.25CP-G) exhibits a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at 1.60 V along with good durability for 24 h.
