“…Among such TMPs, Co phosphides (Co 2 P, CoP, CoP 2 , and CoP 3 ) have attracted much research interest owing to their fine electrocatalytic performance and stability [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. Moreover, heteroatom doping can tune the electronic structures and energy-level modulation so as to tune the HER electrocatalytic capability and to reduce the hydrogen adsorption free energy in catalysts [ 18 , 19 , 20 ]. Thus far, Fe-, Mn-, Cu-, and N-doped Co 2 P and CoP have been studied extensively [ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ], with the results indicating that the doped CoP and Co 2 P exhibit enhanced electrochemical performance compared with undoped electrocatalysts.…”
