Abstract:The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is a key reaction in water splitting and there is an intensive search for suitable HER catalysts that will promote this reaction and also show good stability, while not using precious metals. We have studied the surface modification of rutile TiO2 with metal chalcogenide nanoclusters for the promotion of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) using density functional theory corrected for on-site Coulomb interactions (DFT+U).
Recently, metal chalcogenides have… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
