Distance Synergy of MoS2-Confined Rhodium Atoms for Highly Efficient Hydrogen Evolution

Perturbing the electronic structure of the MoS₂ basal plane by confining heteroatoms offers the opportunity to trigger in-plane activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The key challenge consists of inducing the optimum HER activity by controlling the type and distribution of confined atoms. A distance synergy of MoS₂-confined single-atom rhodium is presented, leading to an ultra-high HER activity at the in-plane S sites adjacent to the rhodium. By optimizing the distance between the confined Rh atoms, an ultra-low overpotential of 67 mV is achieved at a current density of 10 mA cm⁻² in acidic solution. Experiments and first-principles calculations demonstrate a unique distance synergy between the confined rhodium atoms in tuning the reactivity of neighboring in-plane S atoms, which presents a volcanic trend with the inter-rhodium distance. This study provides a new strategy to tailor the activity of MoS₂ surface via modulating the distance between confined single atoms.

High‐Resolution Electrochemical Mapping of the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction on Transition‐Metal Dichalcogenide Nanosheets

High‐resolution scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM) is used to image and quantitatively analyze the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalytically active sites of 1H‐MoS₂ nanosheets, MoS₂, and WS₂ heteronanosheets. Using a 20 nm radius nanopipette and hopping mode scanning, the resolution of SECCM was beyond the optical microscopy limit and visualized a small triangular MoS₂ nanosheet with a side length of ca. 130 nm. The electrochemical cell provides local cyclic voltammograms with a nanoscale spatial resolution for visualizing HER active sites as electrochemical images. The HER activity difference of edge, terrace, and heterojunction of MoS₂ and WS₂ were revealed. The SECCM imaging directly visualized the relationship of HER activity and number of MoS₂ nanosheet layers and unveiled the heterogeneous aging state of MoS₂ nanosheets. SECCM can be used for improving local HER activities by producing sulfur vacancies using electrochemical reaction at the selected region.     

Dual MOF-Derived MoS2/CdS Photocatalysts with Rich Sulfur Vacancies for Efficient Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Cocatalyst plays an important role in efficient charge transfer and separation for photocatalysis. Herein, a MoS₂/CdS photocatalyst with MoS₂ as cocatalyst was designed by using Mo-MOF and Cd-MOF as precursors. Due to the existence of rich sulfur vacancies and 1T phase, MoS₂ shows strong charge capture and transport ability. The photo-generated electrons on conduction band (CB) can be bound by the sulfur vacancy of CdS and effectively transported to MoS₂ through the compact interface between the CdS nanoparticles and 2D large-scale MoS₂. The optimal photocatalyst 1 %MoS₂/CdS exhibited dramatically improved photocatalytic hydrogen production activity, which is 28 times that of pristine CdS and even about 2 times that of 1 %Pt/CdS with same loading amount of noble metal Pt. This work highlights the role of Mo-MOF derived MoS₂ with 1T-2H phases as a sustainable and prospective candidate of cocatalyst for improving charge separation and photocatalytic stability of MoS₂/CdS composites.     

Gold Nanoclusters Grown on MoS2 Nanosheets by Pulsed Laser Deposition: An Enhanced Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Au nanoparticles were decorated on a 2H MoS₂ surface to form an Au/MoS₂ composite by pulse laser deposition. Improved HER activity of Au/MoS₂ is evidenced by a positively shifted overpotential (−77 mV) at a current density of −10 mA cm⁻² compared with pure MoS₂ nanosheets. Experimental evidence shows that the interface between Au and MoS₂ provides more sites to combine protons to form an active H atom. The density functional theory calculations found that new Au active sites on the Au and MoS₂ interface with improved conductivity of the whole system are essential for enhancing HER activity of Au/MoS₂.

The GA‐MoS₂ composite displays a unique 3D architecture with large active surface areas, leading to high catalytic performance with low overpotential, high current density, and good stability.     

单原子改性二硫化钼电催化析氢

氢能是21世纪最理想的清洁能源之一。相比于天然气和煤炭制氢,电解水制氢具有成本低、效率高、无污染、原料丰富的特点,可以有效缓解CO₂过量排放导致的温室效应。电催化析氢需要活性高、稳定性好、廉价易得的催化剂克服反应能垒并加速动力学过程,对实现分解水制氢的规模化应用具有重要的推动作用。铂基催化剂被公认为性能最优异的析氢电催化剂之一,但由于丰度低、成本高,不适用于大规模产氢。二硫化钼(MoS₂)作为典型的二维材料之一,因其高活性位点暴露和高比表面积在析氢领域展现出一定的应用潜能,并有望取代铂基催化剂。本文基于MoS₂电催化剂在析氢领域的研究现状,对单原子掺杂改性MoS₂以提高其催化活性的研究进行了综述,以析氢过电位(Overpotential)及塔菲尔(Tafel)曲线斜率为依据,总结了贵金属单原子、非贵金属单原子及非金属单原子改性MoS₂催化剂的结构与性能以及它们之间的构效关系,在此基础上,提出MoS₂析氢催化剂目前存在的科学问题并指出了未来的努力方向。     

Tuning the Intrinsic Activity and Electrochemical Surface Area of MoS2 via Tiny Zn Doping: Toward an Efficient Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) Catalyst

Molybdenum sulfide (MoS₂) is considered as an alternative material for commercial platinum catalysts for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Improving the apparent HER activity of MoS₂ to a level comparable to that of Pt is an essential premise for the commercial use of MoS₂. In this work, a Zn-doping strategy is proposed to enhance the HER performance of MoS₂. It is shown that tiny Zn doping into MoS₂ leads to the enhancement of the electrochemical surface area, increases in proportion of HER active 1T phase in the material and formation of catalytic sites of higher intrinsic activity. These benefits result in a high-performance HER electrocatalyst with a low overpotential of 190 mV(@10 mA cm⁻²) and a low Tafel slope of 58 mV dec⁻¹. The origin for the excellent electrochemical performance of the doped MoS₂ is rationalized with both experimental and theoretical investigations.
