Phosphorus doped few layer WS₂ flakes grown by chemical vapor deposition for hydrogen evolution reactions.

ABSTRACT: Water splitting is a promising pathway for hydrogen production, providing an environmentally friendly fuel source. More recently, great attention has been given to transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) because of their interesting chemical and physical properties. In particular, tungsten disulfide (WS₂) has garnered significant attention as a catalyst for this application due to its unique layered 2D structure. In this study, few-layered WS₂ and phosphorus-doped WS₂ (WS₂/P) nanoflakes are synthesized on SiO₂/Si substrates as electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) in acidic conditions. Analyses of the synthesized WS₂ and WS₂/P films reveal that the few-layered WS₂ is of high quality,
