Allotrope-dependent activity-stability relationships of molybdenum sulfide hydrogen evolution electrocatalysts

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is widely regarded as a competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyst to replace platinum in proton exchange membrane water electrolysers (PEMWEs). Despite the extensive knowledge of its HER activity, stability insights under HER operation are scarce. This is paramount to ensure long-term operation of Pt-free PEMWEs, and gain full understanding on the …

Single atom engineered materials for sensors

The pursuit of high-performance sensors necessitates the exploration of new materials to realize this potential. Single atom engineering (SAE) is used to plant individual atoms into the appropriate surrounding of (nano)materials in order to confer distinct materials properties. Hence, the nano architectonics principle utilized for single atom engineering allows us to build highly specific, selective, …
