Abstract:Several distinctive approaches have been continuously explored in order to promote the electrocatalytic efficacy of transition metal chalcogenides. Herein, we envisioned to trigger the electrocatalytic HER activity of a chalcogenide, i.e., NiSe 2 , through zinc doping and subsequent creation of selenium vacancies (V Se ) on the Zn-doped NiSe 2 . Zn-doping on an electrocatalyst could judiciously tune its electronic structure, and subsequent creation of V Se would afford active sites for hydrogen adsorption, thu… Show more
