Active Edge Sites Engineering in Nickel Cobalt Selenide Solid Solutions for Highly Efficient Hydrogen Evolution

Xia, Chuan, Liang, Hanfeng, Zhu, Jiajie, Schwingenschlögl, Udo, Alshareef, Husam N.·2017·Advanced Energy Materials

Abstract

An effective multifaceted strategy is demonstrated to increase active edge site concentration in Ni 0.33 Co 0.67 Se 2 solid solutions prepared by in situ selenization process of nickel cobalt precursor. The simultaneous control of surface, phase, and morphology result in as‐prepared ternary solid solution with extremely high electrochemically active surface area (Cdl = 197 mF cm−2), suggesting significant exposure of active sites in this ternary compound. Coupled with metallic‐like electrical conductivity and lower free energy for atomic hydrogen adsorption in Ni 0.33 Co 0.67 Se 2, identified by temperature‐dependent conductivities and density functional theory calculations, the authors have achieved unprecedented fast hydrogen evolution kinetics, approaching that of Pt. Specifically, the Ni 0.33 Co 0.67 Se 2 solid solutions show a low overpotential of 65 mV at −10 mV cm−2, with onset potential of mere 18 mV, an impressive small Tafel slope of 35 mV dec−1, and a large exchange current density of 184 µA cm−2 in acidic electrolyte. Further, it is shown that the as‐prepared Ni 0.33 Co 0.67 Se 2 solid solution not only works very well in acidic electrolyte but also delivers exceptional hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance in alkaline media. The outstanding HER performance makes this solid solution a promising candidate for mass hydrogen production.

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.
