The combination of anionic doping and multicomponent synergism is an effective approach to improve the performance of electrocatalysts in the hydrogen evolution reaction. The synthesized P-doped CoS2-MoS2 hollow spheres exhibit outstanding HER performance due to their unique hollow structure with countless sheets and P-doping optimization.
Combination of anionic doping and multicomponent synergism are effective approach to improve the performance of electrocatalysts toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) process. Herein, P-doped CoS2-MoS2 hollow spheres assembled by countless sheets on oxidized Mo foil (P-CoS2/MoS2/MoO2) was synthesized by hydrothermal and phosphorization process. The unique hollow structure with countless sheets as wall endows more accessible active sites, fast electron/mass transport and high conductivity. P-doping could redistribute the local charge density and optimize the surface charge state to improve the intrinsic activity and accelerate reaction kinetics. The optimized P-CoS2/MoS2/MoO2 exhibits an outstanding HER performance with an overpotential of 85 mV to reach 10 mA cm(-2), a small Tafel slope of 84.6 mV dec(-1), superior intrinsic HER activity and robust durability under alkaline solution. This work proposed a feasible strategy to build the hollow, heterostructured and binder-free electrode in renewable energy application.
