Abstract
Designing cost-effective electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is of paramount importance. Leveraging the benefit of heterostructural materials, a mixed-phase cobalt phosphide (CoP-Co2P) has been synthesized through a simple phosphorization method (DOI: 10.1002/elt2.58). This heterostructure catalyst, with its metallic state, high electron density near the Fermi level, and excellent conductivity, displays outstanding activity and exceptional durability for HER in both alkaline and neutral environments. Moreover, it shows remarkable HER catalytic efficiency in alkaline seawater, highlighting its potential for practical applications in hydrogen production.
设计具有成本效益的氢进化反应(HER)电催化剂至关重要。利用异质结构材料的优势,我们通过简单的磷化方法合成了一种混合相磷化钴(CoP-Co2P)(DOI: 10.1002/elt2.58)。这种异质结构催化剂具有金属态、费米级附近的高电子密度和优异的导电性,在碱性和中性环境中都能显示出卓越的活性和出色的 HER 耐久性。此外,它还在碱性海水中显示出卓越的 HER 催化效率,凸显了其在制氢领域的实际应用潜力。
