Negative Electrocatalytic Effects of p-Doping Niobium and Tantalum on MoS2 and WS2 for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction and Oxygen Reduction Reaction
Abstract
Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are at the forefront of research for their promising catalytic abilities and unique materials properties. With great interest in the study of mono- or few-layered TMDs, we seek to fundamentally explore the effects of doping on bulk TMDs, particularly MoS 2 and WS 2 for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) with p-dopants Nb and Ta. Despite promises reported in the computational studies of doped TMDs on the HER, our results show otherwise. Doped bulk TMDs display less catalytic activity in comparison to their undoped counterparts for the HER. A similar effect is observed for ORR catalysis. Characterization was done to shed light on its surface elemental composition, properties, and morphologies. It was found that doped WS 2 has a high percentage of 1T phase but this does not correlate with a lower overpotential for the HER at −10 mA cm –2, which contradicts the general consensus. We therefore show that p-dopants have a negative electrocatalytic effect on the HER. These findings are of high importance for the field of TMD electrochemistry, as they challenge the current consensus that doping always improves the electrocatalysis of TMDs.

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.
