Water electrolysis via alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is a promising approach for large-scale production of high-purity at low cost, utilizing renewable and clean energy. However, the sluggish kinetics derived from high energy barrier water dissociation impedes seriously its practical application. Herein, series hybrid Pt nanoclusters/Ru nanowires (Pt/Ru NWs) catalysts are demonstrated to accelerate HER. And optimized Pt/Ru NWs (10 ​% wt Pt) exhibits exceptional performance with an ultralow overpotential (24 ​mV 10 ​mA ​cm−2), small Tafel slope (26.3 dec−1), long-term stability, outperforming benchmark commercial Pt/C-JM-20 catalyst. This amazing also occurred in anion-exchange membrane devices, where it delivered cell voltage about 1.9 ​V 1 ​A ​cm−2 outstanding stability (more than 100 ​h). The calculations have revealed such superior exhibited by stems formed heterointerfaces, which significantly reduce decisive rate step cooperative-action between cluster Ru substance. work provides valuable perspectives designing advanced materials toward HER beyond.
