Investigation of anion doping effect to boost overall water splitting

NP monolayer supported transition-metal single atoms for electrochemical water splitting: a theoretical study

“…1,2 Electrocatalytic water splitting is increasingly being regarded as the most efficient approach to produce hydrogen and oxygen. 3,4 The overall water electrolysis includes two half reactions, i.e. , the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) at the cathode and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at the anode.…”

A Mini Review on Doped Nickel-Based Electrocatalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

“…A different work by Zhou et al also revealed the importance of anion doping in enhancing the activity of water splitting catalyst [51]. The researchers investigated into the anion doping effect in pyrite-structured nickel disulfide (NiS 2 ) or nickel diselenide (NiSe 2 ) that prepared via a solvothermal and subsequent calcination and chemical vapor deposition strategy.…”

Synergistic effect between 1D Co3S4/MoS2 heterostructures to boost the performance for alkaline overall water splitting

“…In recent years, transition metal sulfide (TMS)-based materials with low cost, high electrocatalytic activity and strong chemical stability have been extensively considered as potential substitutes for precious metal catalysts. 5 Indeed, many studies show that molybdenum sulfide (MoS 2 ), with a suitable H adsorption energy, possesses favorable activity for HER in acidic solution. 6 Moreover, the 3d transition metal chalcogenides (TMC) such as CoS x also show high OER performance in basic conditions.…”
