Here, it is shown that strontium substitution for lanthanum in coherently strained, epitaxial LaNiO3 films (La1? x SrxNiO3) significantly enhances the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity, resulting in performance at x = 0.5 comparable to the state-of-the-art catalyst Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3? ?. By combining X-ray photoemission and X-ray absorption spectroscopies with density functional theory, it is shown that an upward energy shift of the O 2p band relative to the Fermi level occurs with increasing x in La1? xSrxNiO3. This alloying step strengthens Ni 3d朞 2p hybridization and decreases the charge transfer energy, which in turn accounts for the enhanced OER activity. � 2019 The Authors.
