摘要
d 带中心工程是操纵电催化剂电子结构以提高水分离性能的一种有效方法。然而,在单一催化剂上同时精确定制具有优化 d 波段中心的电子结构,以实现高效的氢和氧进化反应(HER 和 OER),仍然具有挑战性。在此,我们以硫化镍(NiS)为研究对象,采用双原子修饰技术精确调节 NiS 的 d 带中心,从而显著提高了其双功能活性,使其具有出色的 HER 和 OER 性能。具体而言,V 和 Fe 共修饰的 NiS 在 1 M KOH 中分别实现了 68 和 190 mV 的超低过电位,输出 10 mA cm 的 HER 和 OER。理论计算显示,Ni 3d 和 V 3d/Fe 3d 轨道之间的强电子相互作用有效地调整了 NiS 的 d 带中心,优化了 HER 和 OER 中间吸附,从而同时提高了 HER 和 OER。
Precisely tailoring the d-band center of nickel sulfide for boosting overall water splitting
d‐band center engineering is an effective approach to manipulate the electronic structure of an electrocatalyst for boosting water splitting performance. However, it is still challenging to precisely tailor the electronic structure with an optimized d‐band center for efficient hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions (HER and OER) on one single catalyst simultaneously. Focusing on nickel sulfide (NiS), herein we applied dual-atom modification to precisely regulate the d‐band center of NiS, which dramatically enhances its bifunctional activity with outstanding HER and OER performance. Specifically, the V and Fe co-modified NiS achieves ultra-low overpotentials of 68 and 190 mV to output 10 mA cm in 1 M KOH for HER and OER, respectively. Theoretical calculations reveal that the strong electronic interactions between Ni 3d and V 3d/Fe 3d orbitals effectively tailor the d‐band center of NiS, resulting in optimized HER and OER intermediate adsorption, thus boosting the HER and OER simultaneously.
