NiSe/Ni3Se2 on nickel foam as an ultra-high-rate HER electrocatalyst: common anion heterostructure with built-in electric field and efficient interfacial charge transfer.


ABSTRACT: One grand challenge in green hydrogen production is to design efficient HER electrocatalysts for high-rate alkaline water electrolysis. Nickel chalcogenide coatings on nickel foam (NF) are promising HER electrocatalysts, but their high-rate performances are yet to be improved. The current work reports a NiSe/Ni3Se2@NF for alkaline HER, which requires an overpotential of only 336 mV to achieve an ultra-high current density of 1250 mA cm-2, outperforming commercial Pt/C. The low onset potential of NiSe/Ni3Se2@NF is attributed to its morphology, and high surface area, as well as multiple active sites and electronic structure modulation because of the heterostructure. While these features are well-known within the current knowledge framewo
