Dual‐Functional N Dopants in Edges and Basal Plane of MoS2 Nanosheets Toward Efficient and Durable Hydrogen Evolution

Abstract

Herein, the authors explicitly reveal the dual‐functions of N dopants in molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2) catalyst through a combined experimental and first‐principles approach. The authors achieve an economical, ecofriendly, and most efficient MoS 2‐based hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyst of N‐doped MoS 2 nanosheets, exhibiting an onset overpotential of 35 mV, an overpotential of 121 mV at 100 mA cm−2 and a Tafel slope of 41 mV dec−1. The dual‐functions of N dopants are (1) activating the HER catalytic activity of MoS 2 S‐edge and (2) enhancing the conductivity of MoS 2 basal plane to promote rapid charge transfer. Comprehensive electrochemical measurements prove that both the amount of active HER sites and the conductivity of N‐doped MoS 2 increase as a result of doping N. Systematic first‐principles calculations identify the active HER sites in N‐doped MoS 2 edges and also illustrate the conducting charges spreading over N‐doped basal plane induced by strong Mo 3 d–S 2 p–N 2 p hybridizations at Fermi level. The experimental and theoretical research on the efficient HER catalysis of N‐doped MoS 2 nanosheets possesses great potential for future sustainable hydrogen production via water electrolysis and will stimulate further development on nonmetal‐doped MoS 2 systems to bring about novel high‐performance HER catalysts.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
