Boosting the water dissociation kinetics via charge redistribution of ruthenium decorated on S, N-codoped carbon

A simple yet robust route to the synthesis of Ru decorated S, N co-doped carbon (denoted Ru-SNC) is reported. The Ru-SNC-2 exhibits a superior catalytic performance due to the boosted water dissociation kinetics with an η @10 of only 14 mV.
