Abstract Developing high-performance electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is crucial sustainable production, yet still challenging. Here, we report boron-modulated osmium (B-Os) aerogels with rich defects and ultra-fine diameter as a pH-universal HER electrocatalyst. The catalyst shows the small overpotentials of 12, 19, 33 mV at current density 10 mA cm −2 in acidic, alkaline, neutral electrolytes, respectively, well excellent stability, surpassing commercial Pt/C. Operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy that interventional interstitial B atoms can optimize electron structure B-Os stabilize Os active sites an electron-deficient state under realistic working conditions, simultaneously reveals catalytic mechanisms electrolytes. functional theory calculations also indicate introducing tailor electronic Os, resulting reduced water dissociation energy improved adsorption/desorption behavior hydrogen, which synergistically accelerate HER.

The development of high-performance electrocatalysts is a highly efficient strategy to optimize the sluggish kinetic property oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, we synthesize kind nickel foam (NF)-supported electrocatalyst composed one-dimensional Co3O4 nanowire as core and two-dimensional NiFe-LDH nanosheet shell (denoted NiFe-60/Co3O4@NF). Fluorine introduced into precursor Co(OH)F Co3O4, which results in improved thermal stability significantly increased regularly distributed vacancies, while electrochemically deposited nanosheets possess crystalline/amorphous hybrid structure. As result, hetero-interface mainly constituting Ni species from contributes interaction between Co Fe facilitates electron transfer. Simultaneously, vacancies coordinatively unsaturated amorphous area also determined, finally completing backtracking. Benefiting these factors, only low overpotentials 221 257 mV are required deliver current densities 100 500 mA cm–2, respectively, with quite small Tafel slope 34.6 dec–1 during OER for well-designed NiFe-60/Co3O4@NF electrocatalyst.

Heterojunction nanostructures usually exhibit enhanced properties in compariosn with their building blocks and are promising catalyst candidates due to combined surface unique interface. Here, for the first time we realized oriented growth of ultrasmall metal nanoparticles (NPs) on metal–organic framework nanosheets (MOF NSs) by precisely regulating reduction kinetics ions solvents. In particular, a rapid leads random distribution NPs MOF NSs, while slow results edge NSs. Impressively, strong synergy between Pt NSs significantly enhances hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance, optimal displays HER activities superior those composite commercial Pt/C under both acidic alkaline conditions. Moreover, versatility such has been extended other NPs, as Pd, Ag, Au. We believe this work will promote research interest material design many potential applications.

Graphene-, or graphene-like carbon-supported atomically dispersed metal (G-ADMCs) been demonstrated show excellent activity various electrocatalytic making them promising candidates. Different from G-ADMCs for catalysis, which only require high one direction, rechargeable should provide discharging charging. This review provides guidance design fabrication next-generation reactions. The key challenges that prevent conversion, origin G-ADMCs, current principles highly analyzed highlighted each conversion-type battery. Finally, a summary outlook development G-ADMC materials with energy density efficiency are given.
