Problems solved by technology

In the prior art, in the field of photocatalysis, an external magnetic field has been used to change the α-Fe 2 o 3 / rGO photocatalyst electron spin state, thus effectively improving the ability of its photocatalyst to degrade organic matter (Li J, Pei Q and et al, ACS Nano, 2018, 12, 3351-3359), but the method is to use the magnetic field to enhance Photocatalytic properties, no electrocatalytic properties involved
In addition, there are also Co 3 o 4 / ECNFs as a cathode catalyst accelerates the four-electron transfer step in the oxygen reduction process with the help of a magnetic field (Zeng Z, ChemSusChem, 2018, 11, 580-588), but the magnetic field used in this method is provided by the Helmholtz coil, which can only Provide a small magnetic field, and only confirm the influence of the magnetic field on the electron transfer process, and it is aimed at the oxygen reduction process in the field of fuel cells, but does not involve the oxygen evolution and hydrogen evolution performance in the field of electrolysis of water
