Next-generation electrocatalysts with smart integrated designs, maximizing the chemical cascade synergy for sustainable hydrogen production, are needed to address the urgent environmental threats, but scalable synthesis of precisely architectured nanohybrids rendering a few-nanometer interfacial controllability to augment the catalytic reactivity and operational stability is a major bottleneck. Herein, by inventing a surface-confined lateral growth of nanometer-thin and nanoporous two-dimensional (2D)-Pt on NiFe-LDH nanosheets, a highly reactive 2D-2D interfacially integrated nanoplatform is synthesized for an alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) which not only extracts high Pt-atomic utilization efficiency but also synergistically accelerates the water dissociation and hydrogen generation cascade on the colocalized Pt/M(OH)(x) active sites, endowing a 6.1-fold higher Pt mass activity than 20% Pt/C and also empowers a record-high HER operational stability for 50 h, due to the chemically enforced lamellar architecture. This work offers a gateway to produce active metal nanosheets tailored with a suitable active-template surface in order to invent and enforce futuristic catalysis technologies.
