A simple two step electrodeposition method was applied to effectively integrate the amorphous Ni₃S₂ material and the defect-rich NiFe bimetallic oxyhydroxide on the surface of the nickel foam, thereby constructing a NiFe/Ni₃S₂/NF three-dimensional hierarchical heterogeneous electrode. Benefiting from the structural and catalytic advantages of amorphous Ni₃S₂ and defect-rich NiFe materials, as well as the strong electronic interaction at the heterogeneous interface, the NiFe/Ni₃S₂/NF catalytic electrode exhibited excellent oxygen evolution performance: only an overpotential of 273 mV was needed to attain a current density of 100 mA·cm^-2, which is far superior to most of the reported Ni/Fe-based composite materials. It can stably output a high current density of 1 000 mA·cm^-2 at the overpotential of 372 mV for more than 27 h in 1 mol·L^-1 KOH solution.
