Electrolytic hydrogen generation needs efficient and durable electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction. In this Letter, for the first time, we report on the development of P-doped Ag nanoparticles embedded in N-doped carbon nanoflake (denoted as P-Ag(@NC) for effective hydrogen evolution electrocatalysis. When tested in 0.5 M H2SO4, such P-Ag@NC demands overpotential of only 78 mV to drive a catalytic current density of 10 mA cm(-2), which is 198 mV less than that of Ag@NC counterpart. Remarkably, this catalyst also shows strong long-term electrochemical durability with the preservation of its catalytic activity for at least 85 h. Density functional theory calculations suggest that P doping brings the optimization of hydrogen adsorption free energy to a more thermo-neutral value.
