Hydrogen production through water splitting has been considered as a green, pure and high-efficient technique. As an important half-reaction involved, hydrogen evolution reaction is a complex electrochemical process involving liquid-solid-gas three-phase interface behaviour. Therefore, new concepts and strategies of material design are needed to smooth each pivotal step. Here we report a multis...

Spinach chloroplast preparations were mixed with Clostridium kluyveri hydrogenase and ferredoxin. Hydrogen evolution could be measured in the light in the absence of any added electron donors. Inhibition of the water-splitting reaction or of photosystem II reduced the amount of H(2) evolved more than 95%, indicating that H(2)O was the electron donor in this reaction. The rates of H(2) evolution...

Hydrogen Evolution Reaction In article number 2300183, Cheol-Min Park, Ki-Joon Jeon, and co-workers discover the sulfidation of Pd-based nanoclusters on monolayer MoS2 as a two-birds-with-one-stone strategy for tuning metallic 1T-MoS2 phase promoting hydrogen production heterogeneous catalyst. The cover visualizes 1T-phase enrichment in close proximity to PdxSy that function electrocatalytic ac...

A robust and efficient non-precious metal catalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction is one of the key components for carbon dioxide-free hydrogen production. Here we report that a hierarchical nanoporous copper-titanium bimetallic electrocatalyst is able to produce hydrogen from water under a mild overpotential at more than twice the rate of state-of-the-art carbon-supported platinum catalyst. A...

Fabricating a cost effective hydrogen evolution reaction catalyst without using precious metal elements is in crucial demand for environmentally-benign energy production. In this work, the thin and edge-rich molybdenum disulfide nanosheets, with carbon doped in the interlayers and decorated on graphene, were developed by a facile solvothermal process. The as-synthesized nanohybrids exhibited hi...

Hydrogen Evolution Reaction In article number 2110612, Chiara Gattinoni, Xiang-Zhong Chen, Salvador Pané, and co-workers demonstrate that the hydrogen evolution reaction can be triggered via magnetoelectric effect when an alternating magnetic field is applied to aqueous dispersion of composite multiferroic core–shell nanoparticles. These findings could provide cooperative pathways for maximizin...
