Abstract
Platinum (Pt) single-atom catalysts (SACs) are a promising alternative to commercial Pt/carbon (C) catalysts because of their tunable catalytic activity with maximum atomic efficiency for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Herein, we report a nitrogen (N)-doped three-dimensional (3D) crumpled graphene-supported Pt SAC (NCG/Pt) that efficiently catalyzes HER under acidic media. The NCG/Pt demonstrates an overpotential of 0.11 V at a current density of 10 mA cm−2 with a mass activity of 2852.9 A g−1Pt, highlighting its superior 3.6 times greater hydrogen (H) production capacity compared to Pt/C. Systematically controlled electrochemical characterization together with synchrotron-based X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and N2 adsorption–desorption isotherm experiment successfully established the structure–activity relationship, and the enhanced catalytic performance was mainly attributed to the synergistic effect between the Pt-pyridinic N4 moiety and the crumpled graphene (CG) support. Our work presents a rational approach to designing a highly effective, robust, and efficient electrocatalyst for acidic HER.
