Rational Design of Graphene‐Supported Single Atom Catalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction
Open accessAbstract
The proper choice of nonprecious transition metals as single atom catalysts (SACs) remains unclear for designing highly efficient electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Herein, reported is an activity correlation with catalysts, electronic structure, in order to clarify the origin of reactivity for a series of transition metals supported on nitrogen‐doped graphene as SACs for HER by a combination of density functional theory calculations and electrochemical measurements. Only few of the transition metals (e.g., Co, Cr, Fe, Rh, and V) as SACs show good catalytic activity toward HER as their Gibbs free energies are varied between the range of –0.20 to 0.30 eV but among which Co‐SAC exhibits the highest electrochemical activity at 0.13 eV. Electronic structure studies show that the energy states of active valence d z2 orbitals and their resulting antibonding state determine the catalytic activity for HER. The fact that the antibonding state orbital is neither completely empty nor fully filled in the case of Co‐SAC is the main reason for its ideal hydrogen adsorption energy. Moreover, the electrochemical measurement shows that Co‐SAC exhibits a superior hydrogen evolution activity over Ni‐SAC and W‐SAC, confirming the theoretical calculation. This systematic study gives a fundamental understanding about the design of highly efficient SACs for HER.

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.
