Abstract
Materials exhibiting aggregation-induced emission (AIE) behaviour enable strong emission in solid state and can respond to various external stimuli, which may facilitate the development of materials for optical sensing, bioimaging or optoelectronic devices. Herein, we use an AIE luminogen 2’,5’-diphenyl-[1,1’:4’,1”-terphenyl]-4,4”-dicarboxylic acid as the ligand to prepare an AIEgen-based MOF (metal-organic framework) named FJI-H31. FJI-H31 exhibits bright luminescence under ambient conditions (under air and at room temperature), but almost no emission is observed under vacuum. Our investigation shows that the emission intensity displays a smooth and reversible enhancement with increased gas pressure, which may be attributed to the restriction of intramolecular motion brought by structural deformation under pressure stimulus. Unlike most pressure-responsive MOFs, the luminescence reverts to its original state once gas pressure recovers. By virtue of its unique optical properties, a luminescent MOF with sensing ability of gas-pressure is realized. Compounds displaying aggregation-induced emission behavior may have application in the preparation of smart materials. Here, the authors report a luminogen-containing metal-organic framework for which luminescence intensity changes are observed in response to gas pressure.

Abstract
Exploring the highly active and stable nonprecious metal electrocatalysts is particularly important for the advancement of water electrolysis, whereas it remains a challenge to efficiently improve the intrinsic electrocatalytic activity. Herein, we reasonably constructed a self-supporting nanosheet array material with sulfur incorporated into WP2. Because of the tunability of electronic configuration and the formation of partial metal phase sulfides, the optimized catalyst exhibits a low overpotential of 115 mV at 10 mA cm-2, along with superb durability over 24 h in acidic media. Furthermore, theoretical calculations reveal that sulfur substitution effectively manipulates the local electronic configuration of WP2, which reduces the interaction between the catalyst surface and hydrogen atoms, thus improving the intrinsic activity of the hydrogen evolution reaction. This work provides valuable insight into the rational fabrication of highly efficient flexible electrode materials based on resourceful electrocatalysts for electrochemical water splitting.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheets with attractive chemical and structural properties have been considered as prominent oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts, while the insufficient exposed active sites and low electrical conductivity of MOFs limit their electrocatalytic activity and further industrial applications. Herein, a unique strategy to remarkably boost electrocatalytic OER activity of one Ni-based MOF is developed by the simultaneous incorporation of Fe3+ ions and BF4- anions within its layer structure. The optimized electrocatalyst NiFe-MOF-BF4--0.3 NSs shows superior OER activity with a required ultralow overpotential of 237 mV at 10 mA cm-2, a small Tafel slope of 41 mV dec-1, and outstanding stability in an alkaline medium. The experimental and density functional theory (DFT) calculation results verify that the interactions between metal (M) ions and BF4- anions (defined as M···F, M = Ni or Fe) in this catalyst can adjust the adsorption abilities of oxygen intermediates and lower the free energy barrier of the potential-determining step by tailoring its electronic structure, thereby remarkably boosting its OER activity. This protocol provides new insights into surface and structure engineering of 2D MOFs, leading to greatly enhanced electrocatalytic OER performance.

Abstract
Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) has a dominant function in energy conversion and storage because it supplies a most effective way for converting electricity into sustainable high-purity hydrogen. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have shown promising performance in the process of electrochemical water oxidation (a half-reaction for water splitting). Nevertheless, HER properties have not been well released due to the structural characteristics of related materials. Herein, a simple and scalable tactics is developed to synthesize chromium-doped CoFe LDH (CoFeCr LDH). Thanks to oxygen vacancy, optimized electronic structure and interconnected array hierarchical structure, our developed ternary CoFeCr-based layered double hydroxide catalysts can provide 10 mA cm-2 current density at -0.201 V vs. RHE with superior long-term stability in alkaline electrolyte. We anticipate that the simple but feasible polymetallic electronic modulation strategy can strengthen the electrocatalytic property of the layered double hydroxides established in the present study, based on a carbon neutral and hydrogen economy.

Abstract
Developing low-cost electrocatalysts for efficient and robust oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is the key for scalable water electrolysis, for instance, NiFe-based materials. Decorating NiFe catalysts with other transition metals offers a new path to boost their catalytic activities but often suffers from the low controllability of the electronic structures of the NiFe catalytic centers. Here, we report an interfacial atom-substitution strategy to synthesize an electrocatalytic oxygen-evolving NiFeV nanofiber to boost the activity of NiFe centers. The electronic structure analyses suggest that the NiFeV nanofiber exhibits abundant high-valence Fe via a charge transfer from Fe to V. The NiFeV nanofiber supported on a carbon cloth shows a low overpotential of 181 mV at 10 mA cm-2 , along with long-term stability (>20 h) at 100 mA cm-2 . The reported substitutional growth strategy offers an effective and new pathway for the design of efficient and durable non-noble metal-based OER catalysts.

Abstract
Design and construction of low-cost electrocatalysts with high catalytic activity and long-term stability is a challenging task in the field of catalysis. Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) are promising candidates as precursor materials in the development of highly efficient electrocatalysts for energy conversion and storage applications. This review starts with a summary of basic concepts and key evaluation parameters involved in the electrochemical water-splitting reaction. Then, different synthesis approaches reported for the cobalt-based Zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) and its derivatives are critically reviewed. Additionally, several strategies employed to enhance the electrocatalytic activity and stability of ZIF-67-based electrocatalysts are discussed in detail. The present review provides a succinct insight into the ZIF-67 and its derivatives (oxides, hydroxides, sulfides, selenides, phosphide, nitrides, telluride, heteroatom/metal-doped carbon, noble metal-supported ZIF-67 derivatives) reported for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and overall water splitting applications. Finally, this review concludes with the associated challenges and the perspectives on developing the best economic, durable electrocatalytic materials.

Abstract
Electrochemical water splitting plays a crucial role in transferring electricity to hydrogen fuel and appropriate electrocatalysts are crucial to satisfy the strict industrial demand. However, the successfully developed non-noble metal catalysts have a small tested range and the current density is usually less than 100 mA cm-2, which is still far away from the practical application standards. Aiming to provide guidance for the fabrication of more advanced electrocatalysts with a large current density, we herein systematically summarize the recent progress achieved in the field of cost-efficient and large-current-density electrocatalyst design. Beginning by illustrating the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) mechanisms, we elaborate on the concurrent issues of non-noble metal catalysts that are required to be addressed. In view of large-current-density operating conditions, some distinctive features with regard to good electrical conductivity, high intrinsic activity, rich active sites, and porous architecture are also summarized. Next, some representative large-current-density electrocatalysts are classified. Finally, we discuss the challenges associated with large-current-density water electrolysis and future pathways in the hope of guiding the future development of more efficient non-noble-metal catalysts to boost large-scale hydrogen production with less electricity consumption.

Abstract
Rational exploration of efficient, inexpensive, and robust electrocatalysts is critical for the efficient water splitting. Conjugated conductive metal-organic frameworks (cMOFs) with multicomponent layered double hydroxides (LDHs) to construct bifunctional heterostructure catalysts are considered as an efficient but complicated strategy. Here, the fabrication of a cMOF/LDH hetero-nanotree array catalyst (CoNiRu-NT) coupled with monodispersed ruthenium (Ru) sites via a controllable grafted-growth strategy is reported. Rich-amino hexaiminotriphenylene linkers coordinate with the LDH nanotrunk to form cMOF nanobranches, providing numerous anchoring sites to precisely confine and stabilize RuN4 sites. Moreover, monodispersed and reduced Ru moieties facilitate H2 O adsorption and dissociation, and the heterointerface between the cMOF and the LDH further modifies the chemical and electronic structures. Optimized CoNiRu-NT displays a significant increase in electrochemical water-splitting properties in alkaline media, affording low overpotentials of 22 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and 255 mV at 20 mA cm-2 for the hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction, respectively. In an actual electrochemical system, CoNiRu-NT drives an overall water splitting at a low cell voltage of 1.47 V to reach 10 mA cm-2 . This performance is comparable to that of pure noble-metal-based materials and superior to most reported MOF-based catalysts.

Abstract
Amorphous and bifunctional electrocatalysts based on 3d transition metals tend to exhibit better performance than their crystalline counterparts and are a promising choice for efficient overall water splitting yet far from being well explored. A 3,6-net metal-organic framework (MOF) of [Ni3(bpt)2(DMF)2(H2O)2]·1.5DMF (Ni-MOF), based on linear [Ni3(COO)6] as a node and [1,1'-biphenyl]-3,4',5-tricarboxylic acid (H3bpt) as a linker, was conveniently prepared via a hydrothermal reaction. Benefitting from the wide compatibility of the octahedral coordination geometry in Ni-MOF for different 3d metal ions, the molecular level and controllable metal doping facilitates the production of the desired Ni/Fe bimetallic MOF. A high-concentration alkali solution of 1 M KOH induced the in situ transformation of the MOF as a precursor to new amorphous electrocatalysts of [Ni(OH)2(H2O)0.6]·H2O [a-Ni(OH)2] and its metal-doped derivatives of a-Ni0.77Fe0.23(OH)2 and a-Ni0.65Fe0.35(OH)2. In particular, the costly organic ligand H3bpt was fully dissolved in the alkaline solution and can be recovered for cyclic utilization by subsequent acidification. The obtained amorphous hydroxide was deduced to be loose and defective layers containing both coordinated and lattice water based on combined characterizations of TG, IR, Raman, XPS, and sorption analysis. As opposed to the crystalline counterpart of Ni(OH)2 with stacked packing layers and an absent lattice water, the abundant catalytic active sites of the amorphous electrocatalyst endow good performance in both oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The bifunctional a-Ni0.65Fe0.35(OH)2 coated on nickel foam realizes small overpotentials of 247 and 99 mV for OER and HER, respectively, under a current density of 10 mA cm-2, which can work with a cell voltage of merely 1.60 V for overall water splitting. This study provides an efficient strategy for widely screening and preparing new functional amorphous materials for electrocatalytic application.

Abstract
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and corresponding derivatives have attracted wide attention. As electrocatalysts, these derivatives (metal, metal compound, and associated composites) have a wide range of application in water-splitting devices, fuel cells, and other hydrogen-related technologies. However, with the exception of pyrolysis, limited studies have documented generated metal nanoparticles from MOFs hydrolysis reactions. Herein, NiRu dual-phase alloy nanoparticles are synthesized via in situ MOFs hydrolysis mediating solvothermal reduction reaction. The hcp-phase NiRu alloys can be rationally tuned by modulating experimental parameters of feeding metal ratio and reaction time. The volcanic link between hydrogen evolution reaction activity and the descriptor of d band center is investigated using experimentally determined valence bands. Furthermore, compared with fcc-phase NiRu alloys, it is theoretically revealed that hcp-phase NiRu alloys optimize d band structure and have a lower energy barrier. This finding broadens the range of application for MOFs hydrolysis reactions and highlights advantages of metal alloys manufactured from MOFs hydrolysis reactions.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic water oxidation is a rate-determining step in the water splitting process; however, its efficiency is significantly hampered by the limitations of cost-effective electrocatalysts. Here, an advanced Co(OH)2 electrocatalyst with ultralow iridium (Ir) doping is developed to enable outstanding oxygen evolution reaction (OER) properties; that is, in a 1 M KOH medium, an overpotential of only 262 mV is required to achieve a current density of 10 mA cm-2, and a small Tafel slope of 66.9 mV dec-1 is achieved, which is markedly superior to that of the commercial IrO2 catalyst (301 mV@10 mA cm-2; 66.9 mV dec-1). Through the combination of experimental data and a mechanism study, it is disclosed that the high intrinsic OER activity results from the synergistic electron coupling of oxidized Ir and Co(OH)2, which significantly moderate the adsorption energy of the intermediates. Moreover, we have also synthesized Ru-Co(OH)2 nanosheets and demonstrated the universal syntheses of Ir-doped CoM (M = Ni, Fe, Mn, and Zn) layered double hydroxides (LDHs).

CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol has attracted great interest while suffering from low conversion and high energy input. Herein, tiny Pd 3 Cu nanoparticles are confined into a metal-organic framework (MOF), UiO-66, to afford Pd 3 Cu@UiO-66 for CO 2 hydrogenation. Remarkably, it achieves a methanol production rate of 340 µmol g -1 h -1 at 200 °C and 1.25 MPa under light irradiation, far surpassing that in the dark. The photo-generated electron transfer from the MOF to antibonding orbitals of CO 2 * promotes CO 2 activation and HCOO* formation. In addition, the Pd 3 Cu microenvironment plays a critical role in CO 2 hydrogenation. In contrast to the MOF-supported Pd 3 Cu (Pd 3 Cu/UiO-66), the Pd 3 Cu@UiO-66 exhibits a much higher methanol production rate due to the close proximity between CO 2 and H 2 activation sites, which greatly facilitates their interaction and conversion. This work provides a new avenue to the integration of solar and thermal energy for efficient CO 2 hydrogenation under moderate conditions.

Abstract
Thermo-enhanced photocatalysis combines the advantages of thermocatalysis and photocatalysis and provides a very promising approach for the selective oxidation of organic compounds to value-added chemicals. In this work, the amino group in MIL-125-NH2 first reacts with formaldehyde to form the reducing group (-NH-CH2OH), which can in situ auto reduce the introduced Ag+ ions to Ag clusters/nanoparticles in the cavities. Then the formed MIL-125-NH-CH2OH@Ag was further coated with a covalent organic framework (COF) through imine bonds to form a series of MIL-125-NH-CH2OH@Ag@COF hybrids. Oxidative coupling of amines was selected to evaluate the photocatalytic performance of these materials under visible light at set temperatures (20-60 °C). With an optimized composition, MIL-125-NH-CH2OH@Ag-0.5@COF-2 not only improves the optical properties, but also exhibits the highest conversion (almost 100%) of benzylamine under visible light at 60 °C and good stability for at least three cycles. Free radical capture experiments and electron spin resonance detection demonstrated that holes (h+), hydroxyl (˙OH) and superoxide radicals (O2˙-) were the active species. The results prove that the MIL-125-NH-CH2OH@Ag@COF hybrid possessed higher photocatalytic performance than individual MIL-125-NH2, Ag and COF on account of the efficient separation and transfer of photoinduced electrons and holes. Moreover, the promotion of the reaction temperature on the photocatalytic oxidation of amines has been reported, revealing that the conversion of benzylamine over MIL-125-NH-CH2OH@Ag-0.5@COF-2 at 60 °C is nearly twice as high as that at 20 °C under visible light irradiation. Therefore, the thermo-enhanced photocatalytic oxidation performance of the MOF@Ag@COF hybrid demonstrates the great potential of thermal energy for further improving the photocatalytic selective oxidation performance.

Abstract
Accurately manipulating the electronic structure of metal active sites under working conditions is central to developing efficient and stable electrocatalysts in industrial water-alkali electrolyzers. However, the lack of an intuitive means to capture the evolution of metal sites during the reaction state inhibits the manipulation of its electronic structure. Here, atomically dispersed Ru single-sites on cobalt nanoparticles confined onto macro-microporous frameworks (M-Co NPs@Ru SAs/NC) with tunable electron coupling effect for efficient catalysis of alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are constructed. Using operando X-ray absorption and infrared spectroscopies, a dynamic CoRu bond shrinkage with strong electron coupling effect under working conditions is identified, which significantly promotes the adsorption of water molecules and then accelerates its dissociation to form the key H* over Ru sites for high HER activity. The well-designed M-Co NPs@Ru SAs/NC delivers efficient HER performance with a small overpotential of 34 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and a high turnover frequency of ≈4284 H2 h-1 at -0.05 V, 40 times higher than that of the benchmark Pt/C. This work provides a new point of view to manipulate the electronic structure of the metal active sites for highly effective electrocatalysis processes.

Abstract
Heterogeneous catalysts are progressively expanding their field of application, from high-throughput reactions for traditional industrial chemistry with production volumes reaching millions of tons per year, a sector in which they are key players, to more niche applications for the production of fine chemicals. These novel applications require a progressive utilization reduction of fossil feedstocks, in favor of renewable ones. Biomasses are the most accessible source of organic precursors, having as advantage their low cost and even distribution across the globe. Unfortunately, they are intrinsically inhomogeneous in nature and their efficient exploitation requires novel catalysts. In this process, an accurate design of the active phase performing the reaction is important; nevertheless, we are often neglecting the importance of the support in guaranteeing stable performances and improving catalytic activity. This review has the goal of gathering and highlighting the cases in which the supports (either derived or not from biomass wastes) share the worth of performing the catalysis with the active phase, for those reactions involving the synthesis of fine chemicals starting from biomasses as feedstocks.

Abstract
Natural hydrogen (H2 ) has gained considerable attentions as a renewable energy resource to mitigate the globally increasing environmental concerns. Low-temperature serpentinization (<200 °C) as a typical water-rock reaction is a major source of the natural H2 . However, the reaction mechanism and the controlling step to product H2 remained unclear, which hinders the further utilization of natural H2 . Herein, we demonstrated that the H2 production rate could be determined by the Fe(OH)2 oxidation during low-temperature serpentinization. Moreover, the co-existence of Ni2+ could largely enhance the H2 production kinetics. With the addition of only 1 % Ni2+ , the H2 production rate was remarkably enhanced by about two orders of magnitude at 90 °C. D2 O isotopic experiment and theoretical calculations revealed that the enhanced H2 production kinetics could be attributed to the catalytic role of Ni2+ to promote the reduction of H2 O.

Abstract
Heterojunction nanostructures usually exhibit enhanced properties in compariosn with their building blocks and are promising catalyst candidates due to their combined surface and unique interface. Here, for the first time we realized the oriented growth of ultrasmall metal nanoparticles (NPs) on metal-organic framework nanosheets (MOF NSs) by precisely regulating the reduction kinetics of metal ions with solvents. In particular, a rapid reduction of metal ions leads to the random distribution of metal NPs on the surface of MOF NSs, while a slow reduction of metal ions results in the oriented growth of NPs on the edge of MOF NSs. Impressively, the strong synergy between Pt NPs and MOF NSs significantly enhances the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance, and the optimal catalyst displays HER activities superior to those of a composite with a random growth of Pt NPs and commercial Pt/C under both acidic and alkaline conditions. Moreover, the versatility of such oriented growth has been extended to other metal NPs, such as Pd, Ag, and Au. We believe this work will promote research interest in material design for many potential applications.

Abstract
Non-noble transition metal oxides are abundant in nature. However, they are widely regarded as catalytically inert for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) due to their scarce active electronic states near the Fermi-level. How to largely improve the HER activity of these kinds of materials remains a great challenge. Herein, as a proof-of-concept, we design a non-solvent strategy to achieve phosphate substitution and the subsequent crystal phase stabilization of metastable β-NiMoO4. Phosphate substitution is proved to be imperative for the stabilization and activation of β-NiMoO4, which can efficiently generate the active electronic states and promote the intrinsic HER activity. As a result, phosphate substituted β-NiMoO4 exhibits the optimal hydrogen adsorption free energy (−0.046 eV) and ultralow overpotential of −23 mV at 10 mA cm−2 in 1 M KOH for HER. Especially, it maintains long-term stability for 200 h at the large current density of 1000 mA cm−2 with an overpotential of only −210 mV. This work provides a route for activating transition metal oxides for HER by stabilizing the metastable phase with abundant active electronic states. Non-noble transition metal oxides are common yet typically poor hydrogen evolution catalysts due to scarce active electronic states. This work provides a route for achieving hydrogen evolution at high current densities by stabilizing a metastable NiMoO4 phase with abundant active electronic states.

Abstract
Rationally tailoring the coordination environments of metal single atoms (SAs) is an effective approach to promote their catalytic performances, which, however, remains as a challenge to date. Here, we report a novel misplaced deposition strategy for the fabrication of differently coordinated dual-metal hetero-SAs. Systematic characterization results imply that the as-synthesized dual-metal hetero-SAs (exemplified by Cu and Co) are affixed to a hierarchical carbon support via Cu-C4 and Co-N4 coordination bonds. Density functional theory studies reveal that the strong synergistic interactions between the asymmetrically deployed CuC4 and CoN4 sites lead to remarkably polarized charge distributions, i.e., electron accumulation and deficiency around CuC4 and CoN4 sites, respectively. The obtained CuC4/CoN4@HC catalyst exhibits significantly enhanced capability in substrate adsorption and O2 activation, achieving superior catalytic performances in the oxidative esterification of aromatic aldehydes in comparison with the Cu- and Co-based SA counterparts.

Abstract
Designing definite metal-support interfacial bond is an effective strategy for optimizing the intrinsic activity of noble metals, but rather challenging. Herein, a series of quantum-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) anchored on nickel metal-organic framework nanohybrids (M@Ni-MOF, M=Ru, Ir, Pd) are rationally developed through a spontaneous redox strategy. The metal-oxygen bonds between the NPs and Ni-MOF guarantee structural stability and sufficient exposure of the surface active sites. More importantly, such precise interfacial feature can effectively modulate the electronic structure of hybrids through the charge transfer of the formed Ni-O-M bridge and then improves the reaction kinetics. As a result, the representative Ru@Ni-MOF exhibits excellent hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity at all pH values, even superior to commercial Pt/C and recent noble-metal catalysts. Theoretical calculations deepen the mechanism understanding of the superior HER performance of Ru@Ni-MOF through the optimized adsorption free energies of water and hydrogen due to the interfacial-bond-induced electron redistribution.

Abstract
A photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor on basis of [Ru(bpy)3]2+@Ce-UiO-66/Mn:Bi2S3 composites was constructed for detecting ofloxacin (OFL). First, Ce-UiO-66, prepared by a solvothermal method, had Zr4+-Zr3+ and Ce4+-Ce3+ intervalence cycles to increase the charge separation efficiency. Subsequently, Ce-UiO-66 was further modified by [Ru(bpy)3]2+ and Mn:Bi2S3 cosensitization to improve the photoelectric activity. [Ru(bpy)3]2+ not only broadened the range of light absorbed but also reacted with an electron donor to maintain the photoelectric conversion process. Among the [Ru(bpy)3]2+@Ce-UiO-66/Mn:Bi2S3 heterojunction, Mn:Bi2S3 was a photosensitizer, which maximized the efficiency of the electron-hole separation and significantly improved photocurrent. Then, an aptamer was used as a biorecognition unit for OFL-specific detection. Under the best conditions, the PEC aptasensor realized the sensitive detection of OFL, with a detection range of 0.01-100 nmol/L and a detection limit of 6 pmol/L. In addition, the constructed PEC OFL sensor showed good reproducibility, stability, and specificity.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures have enabled noble-metal-based nanomaterials to be promising electrocatalysts toward overall water splitting due to their inherent structural advantages, including a high specific surface active area, numerous low-coordinated atoms, and a high density of defects and edges. Moreover, it is also disclosed that the electronic effect and strain effect within 2D nanostructures also benefit the further promotion of the electrocatalytic performance. In this review, we have focused on the recent progress in the fabrication of advanced electrocatalysts based on 2D noble-metal-based nanomaterials toward water splitting electrocatalysis. First, fundamental descriptions about water-splitting mechanisms, some promising engineering strategies, and major challenges in electrochemical water splitting are given. Then, the structural merits of 2D nanostructures for water splitting electrocatalysis are also highlighted, including abundant surface active sites, lattice distortion, abundant surface defects, electronic effects, and strain effects. Additionally, some representative water-splitting electrocatalysts have been discussed in detail to highlight the superiorities of 2D noble-metal-based nanomaterials for electrochemical water splitting. Finally, the underlying challenges and future opportunities for the fabrication of more advanced electrocatalysts for water splitting are also highlighted. We hope that this review article provides guidance for the fabrication of more efficient electrocatalysts for boosting industrial hydrogen production via water splitting.

Abstract
The investigation of highly effective, durable, and cost-effective electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is a prerequisite for the upcoming hydrogen energy society. To establish a new hydrogen energy system and gradually replace the traditional fossil-based energy, electrochemical water-splitting is considered the most promising, environmentally friendly, and efficient way to produce pure hydrogen. Compared with the commonly used platinum (Pt)-based catalysts, ruthenium (Ru) is expected to be a good alternative because of its similar hydrogen bonding energy, lower water decomposition barrier, and considerably lower price. Analyzing and revealing the HER mechanisms, as well as identifying a rational design of Ru-based HER catalysts with desirable activity and stability is indispensable. In this review, the research progress on HER electrocatalysts and the relevant describing parameters for HER performance are briefly introduced. Moreover, four major strategies to improve the performance of Ru-based electrocatalysts, including electronic effect modulation, support engineering, structure design, and maximum utilization (single atom) are discussed. Finally, the challenges, solutions and prospects are highlighted to prompt the practical applications of Ru-based electrocatalysts for HER.

Abstract
In response to the shortage of fossil fuels, efficient electrochemical energy conversion devices are attracting increasing attention, while the limited electrochemical performance and high cost of noble metal-based electrode materials remain a daunting challenge. The electrocatalytic performance of electrode materials is closely bound with their intrinsic electronic/ionic states and crystal structures. Apart from the nanoscale design and conductive composite strategies, heteroatom doping, particularly for nonmetal doping (e.g., hydrogen, boron, sulfur, selenium, phosphorus, and tellurium), is also another effective strategy to greatly promote the intrinsic activity of the electrode materials by tuning their atomic structures. From the perspective of electrocatalytic reactions, the effective atomic structure regulation could induce additional active sites, create rich defects, and optimize the adsorption capability, thereby contributing to the promotion of the electrocatalytic performance of noble metal-based electrocatalysts. Encouraged by the great progress achieved in this field, we have reviewed recent advancements in nonmetal doping for electrocatalytic energy conversion. Specifically, the doping effect on the atomic structure and intrinsic electronic/ionic state is also systematically illustrated and the relationship with the electrocatalytic performance is also investigated. It is believed that this review will provide guidance for the development of more efficient electrocatalysts.
