Molybdenum phosphide (MoP) has received increasing attention due to its high catalytic activity in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, it remains difficult to construct well-defined MoP nanostructures with large density of active sites and high intrinsic activity. Here, a facile and general method is reported to synthesize an MoP/carbon nanotube (CNT) hybrid featuring small-sized and well-crystallized MoP nanoparticles uniformly coated on the sidewalls of multiwalled CNT. The MoP/CNT hybrid exhibits impressive HER activities in pH-universal electrolytes, and requires the overpotentials as low as 83, 102, and 86 mV to achieve a cathodic current density of 10 mA cm(-2) in acidic 0.5 m H2SO4, neutral 1 m phosphate buffer solution, and alkaline 1 m KOH electrolytes, respectively. It is found that the crystallinity of MoP has significant influence on HER activity. This study provides a new design strategy to construct MoP nanostructures for optimizing its catalytic performance.
