Study on Nanostructured Molybdenum Carbide for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Amorphous molybdenum sulfides as hydrogen evolution catalysts.

Providing energy for a population projected to reach 9 billion people within the middle of this century is one of the most pressing societal issues. Burning fossil fuels at a rate and scale that satisfy our near-term demand will irreversibly damage the living environment. Among the various sources of alternative and CO2-emission-free energies, the sun is the only source that is capable of provi...

Molybdenum disulfide/pyrolytic carbon hybrid electrodes for scalable hydrogen evolution.

The electrochemical generation of hydrogen fuel via the proton reduction in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) in aqueous media is currently dependent on the use expensive noble metal catalysts for which alternatives must be sought. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) has shown great promise as a suitable electrocatalyst in this regard. While many lab-scale experiments on the HER activity of this ma...
