Bottom‐Up Strategy Toward 3D Porous MXene/MoS2 Nanosheets/Graphene Nanoarchitectures as Highly‐Efficient Hydrogen Evolution Electrocatalysts

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a core component in the electrochemical water splitting system, the cathode catalyst is capable of boosting the kinetics of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), while the scarcity and expenditure of current noble metal‐based electrocatalysts seriously restrict the large‐scale commercial development of hydrogen manufacturing devices. Here,
