Single-Atom Vacancy Defect to Trigger High-Efficiency Hydrogen Evolution of MoS2
Abstract
Defect engineering is widely applied in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) to achieve electrical, optical, magnetic, and catalytic regulation. Vacancies, regarded as a type of extremely delicate defect, are acknowledged to be effective and flexible in general catalytic modulation. However, the influence of vacancy states in addition to concentration on catalysis still remains vague. Thus, via high throughput calculations, the optimized sulfur vacancy (S-vacancy) state in terms of both concentration and distribution is initially figured out among a series of MoS 2 models for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In order to realize it, a facile and mild H 2 O 2 chemical etching strategy is implemented to introduce homogeneously distributed single S-vacancies onto the MoS 2 nanosheet surface. By systematic tuning of the etching duration, etching temperature, and etching solution concentration, comprehensive modulation of the S-vacancy state is achieved. The optimal HER performance reaches a Tafel slope of 48 mV dec –1 and an overpotential of 131 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm –2, indicating the superiority of single S-vacancies over agglomerate S-vacancies. This is ascribed to the more effective surface electronic structure engineering as well as the boosted electrical transport properties. By bridging the gap, to some extent, between precise design from theory and practical modulation in experiments, the proposed strategy extends defect engineering to a more sophisticated level to further unlock the potential of catalytic performance enhancement.

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.
