Beneficial surface defect engineering of MoS2 electrocatalyst for efficient hydrogen evolution reaction
Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is considered the most efficient method for hydrogen production using an effective electrocatalyst. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), with its unique 2D layered structure, is the most promising electrocatalyst. This is attributed to its flexibility, which facilitates the exploration of various MoS2 phases and properties, closely mirroring those of platinum, particularly its Gibbs energy (ΔGH* ̃ 0.08 eV), which makes MoS2 an excellent electrocatalyst. However, its low electrical conductivity and inert basal planes limit its effectiveness for HER. This study utilized a facile hot-gun approach to successfully introduce sulfur vacancies, simultaneously incorporating oxygen from the air, which partially occupied these vacancies. This process resulted in the formation of an intermediate MoOxSy interlayer, yielding a highly effective electrocatalyst. Exposure to the hot gun for a short duration led to several changes, notably expanding the interlayer spacing and altering the atomic S:O ratio from approximately 75 % to 57 %, primarily affecting the MoS2 structure. The optimal duration for hot-gun treatment was determined to be 30 s, enhancing electrochemical activity for HER, with an overpotential of 486 mV vs. RHE (briefly marked as VRHE) at a current density of 10 mA·cm−2 and Tafel slope of 224 mV·dec-1. The improvement in basal active sites, attributable to the formation of defects from sulfur vacancies and partial passivation by oxygen at these sites, was identified as the key factor for this enhanced performance.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry is the foremost international journal devoted to the interdisciplinary subject of electrochemistry in all its aspects, theoretical as well as applied.
Electrochemistry is a wide ranging area that is in a state of continuous evolution. Rather than compiling a long list of topics covered by the Journal, the editors would like to draw particular attention to the key issues of novelty, topicality and quality. Papers should present new and interesting electrochemical science in a way that is accessible to the reader. The presentation and discussion should be at a level that is consistent with the international status of the Journal. Reports describing the application of well-established techniques to problems that are essentially technical will not be accepted. Similarly, papers that report observations but fail to provide adequate interpretation will be rejected by the Editors. Papers dealing with technical electrochemistry should be submitted to other specialist journals unless the authors can show that their work provides substantially new insights into electrochemical processes.
