چکیده

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is used to identify a slow electron transport process in hydrogen evolution catalysed by amorphous molybdenum sulphides on glassy carbon. A new chemical synthesis leads to an amorphous molybdenum sulfide catalyst with a higher electronic conductivity.

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...

A Flexible Platform Containing Graphene Mesoporous Structure and Carbon Nanotube for Hydrogen Evolution

It is of great significance to design a platform with large surface area and high electrical conductivity for poorly conductive catalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), such as molybdenum sulfide (MoS x ), a promising and cost-effective nonprecious material. Here, the design and preparation of a free-standing and tunable graphene mesoporous structure/single-walled carbon nanotube (GMS/SW...

A high-porosity carbon molybdenum sulphide composite with enhanced electrochemical hydrogen evolution and stability.

This work describes a highly active and stable acid activated carbon fibre and amorphous MoS(x) composite hydrogen evolution catalyst. The increased electrochemical-surface area is demonstrated to cause increased catalyst electrodeposition and activity. These composite electrodes also show an improved stability towards the mechanical degradation of the MoS(x) catalyst.

Bi-axial grown amorphous MoSx bridged with oxygen on r-GO as a superior stable and efficient nonprecious catalyst for hydrogen evolution

Amorphous molybdenum sulfide (MoSx) is covalently anchored to reduced graphene oxide (r-GO) via a simple one-pot reaction, thereby inducing the reduction of GO and simultaneous doping of heteroatoms on the GO. The oxygen atoms form a bridged between MoSx and GO and play a crucial role in the fine dispersion of the MoSx particles, control of planar MoSx growth, and increase of exposed active sul...

Atomic Structure and Dynamics of Single Platinum Atom Interactions with Monolayer MoS2.

We have studied atomic level interactions between single Pt atoms and the surface of monolayer MoS2 using aberration-corrected annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy at an accelerating voltage of 60 kV. Strong contrast from single Pt atoms on the atomically resolved monolayer MoS2 lattice enables their exact position to be determined with respect to the MoS2 lattice, revea...
