Sundaram Chandrasekaran et al.

Summary: The construction of heterostructures based on non-precious metals with platinum-like performance in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is a challenge in hydrogen fuel technology. In this study, heterostructured M-N-Ni9S8/Nb2O5 (M = Co, Fe, or Cu) catalysts were successfully fabricated using spatially separated Ni9S8 nanosheets/Nb2O5 nanobelts coupled with nitrogen (N) and metal atoms. The Co-N-Ni9S8/Nb2O5 heterostructure achieved a low acidic overpotential of-171 mV at-10 mA cm(-2) and outperformed existing heterostructures due to its improved intrinsic activity, interface-rich structure, abundant active sites, and large surface area. The Cu-N-Ni9S8/Nb2O5 heterostructure required a low alkaline overpotential of-109 mV at-10 mA cm(-2), approaching the performance of Pt/C catalyst. Density functional theory (DFT) predictions showed that the local charge distribution and electronic properties at the heterointerface of Ni9S8/Nb2O5 can be modulated by co-doping of metals with N atoms, leading to optimal adsorption energy and reduced water dissociation barrier, thereby enhancing the acidic and alkaline HER activity.
