Abstract Ultrathin two‐dimensional catalysts are attracting attention in the field of electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution. This work describe a composite material design which CoP nanoparticles doped with Ru single‐atom sites supported on carbon dots (CDs) single‐layer nanosheets formed by splicing CDs (Ru 1 CoP/CDs). Small CD fragments bore abundant functional groups, analogous to pieces jigsaw puzzle, and could provide high density binding immobilize CoP. The single‐particle‐thick acted as supports, improved conductivity electrocatalyst stability catalyst during operation. CoP/CDs from doping atomic dispersed showed very efficiency for evolution reaction (HER) over wide pH range. prepared under optimized conditions displayed outstanding activity: overpotential HER at current 10 mA cm −2 was low 51 49 mV alkaline acidic conditions, respectively. Density theory calculations that substituted single atoms lowered proton‐coupled electron transfer energy barrier promoted H−H bond formation, thereby enhancing catalytic performance HER. findings open new avenue developing carbon‐based hybridization materials integrated water splitting.

Abstract Designing non‐precious electrocatalysts to synergistically achieve a facilitated mass/electron transfer and exposure of abundant active sites is highly desired but remains significant challenge.

The combined experimental theoretical calculations reveal that interfaces not only provide richly exposed also optimize hydrogen/water absorption free energy via electronic coupling, while interconnected macroporous structure enables superior mass all accessible sites. As result, as‐developed Co/CoP@HOMC composites exhibit outstanding catalytic activity with overpotentials 120 260 mV at 10 mA cm −2 for hydrogen evolution reaction oxygen in 1.0 m KOH, respectively. Moreover, an alkaline electrolyzer constructed by requires ultralow cell voltage 1.54 V , outperforming Pt@C||IrO 2 @C couple (1.64 V).
