Abstract
A sensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor for silver ions (Ag+) was developed based on Zn-Co doped C and CdS quantum dot (CdS QD) nanomaterials. Hydrophobic modified sodium alginate (HMA), which could stabilize and improve the PEC performance of CdS QDs, was also used for the construction of PEC sensors. Especially, Zn-Co doped C, CdS QDs and HMA were sequentially modified onto an electrode surface via the drop-coating method, and a C base rich DNA strand was then immobilized onto the modified electrode. As the C base in DNA specifically recognized Ag+, it formed a C-Ag+-C complex in the presence of Ag+, which created a spatial steric hindrance, resulting in a reduced PEC response. The sensing platform is sensitive to Ag+ in the range of 10.0 fM to 0.10 μM, with a limit of detection of 3.99 fM. This work offers an ideal platform to determine trace heavy metal ions in environmental monitoring and bioanalysis.

Abstract
Designing bifunctional low-cost photo-assisted electrocatalysts for converting solar and electric energy into hydrogen energy remains a huge challenge. Herein, a heterojunction (Fe cluster modified Co9 S8 loaded on carbon nanotubes, Co9 S8 -Fe@CNT) for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is demonstrated. Benefiting from the good electronic conductivity and spatial confinement of the carbon skeleton, as well as the electronic structure regulation of the Fe cluster, Co9 S8 -Fe@CNT exhibits excellent catalytic performance with a low overpotential of 150 mV for OER and 135 mV for HER at 10 mA cm-2 . Upon light irradiation, holes and electrons are generated in the valence band and conduction band of the Co9 S8 , respectively. Part of the charges are transferred to the interface to facilitate the catalytic reaction, while the remaining are transferred by the electrode. When working as a bifunctional catalyst for overall water splitting, the performance can reach 1.33 V at under light conditions, which is significantly better than 1.52 V in a dark environment. Theoretical calculations revealed lowered Gibbs free energy (∆GH *) of the heterojunction with the effect of Fe modification of Co9 S8 . This work sheds a new light in designing novel photoelectrochemical materials to convert solar and electric energy into chemical energy.

Abstract
Rechargeable zinc-air batteries are widely recognized as a highly promising technology for energy conversion and storage, offering a cost-effective and viable alternative to commercial lithium-ion batteries due to their unique advantages. However, the practical application and commercialization of zinc-air batteries are hindered by the sluggish kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Recently, extensive research has focused on the potential of first-row transition metals (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu) as promising alternatives to noble metals in bifunctional ORR/OER electrocatalysts, leveraging their high-efficiency electrocatalytic activity and excellent durability. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the recent advancements in the mechanisms of ORR/OER, the performance of bifunctional electrocatalysts, and the preparation strategies employed for electrocatalysts based on first-row transition metals in alkaline media for zinc-air batteries. The paper concludes by proposing several challenges and highlighting emerging research trends for the future development of bifunctional electrocatalysts based on first-row transition metals.

Abstract
Exposing catalytically active metal sites in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) while maintaining porosity is beneficial for increasing electron transport to achieve better electrochemical energy conversion performance. Herein, we propose an in situ method for MOF formation and loading onto TiO2 nanorods (NR) using a simple solution-processable method followed by annealing to obtain TiO2-Co3O4. The as-prepared TiO2-ZIF-67 based photoanodes were annealed at 350, 450, and 550 °C to study the effect of carbonization on photo-electrochemical water oxidation. The successful loading of ZIF-67 on TiO2 and the formation of TiO2-Co3O4 heterojunction were confirmed by XRD, XPS, FE-SEM, and HRTEM analyses. TiO2-Co3O4-450 (the sample annealed at 450 °C) showed an enhanced photocurrent of 2.4 mA/cm2, which was 2.6 times larger than that of pristine TiO2. The improved photocurrent might be ascribed to the prepared p-n heterostructures (Co3O4 and TiO2), which promote electron-hole separation and charge transfer within the system and improve the photoelectrochemical performance. Moreover, the preparation of Co3O4 from the MOF carbonization process improved the electrical conductivity and significantly increased the number of exposed active sites and enhanced the photoresponse performance. The as-prepared ZIF-67 derived TiO2-Co3O4 based photoanodes demonstrate high PEC water oxidation, and the controlled carbonization method paves the way toward the synthesis of low-cost and efficient electrocatalysts.

Abstract
The development of non-noble metal catalysts for water electrolysis to product hydrogen meets the current strategic need for carbon peaking and carbon neutrality. However, complex preparation methods, low catalytic activity and high energy consumption still limit the application of these materials. Herein, in this work we prepared a three-level structured electrocatalyst of CoP@ZIF-8 growing on modified porous nickel foam (pNF) via the natural growing and phosphating process. In contrast to the common NF, the modified NF constructs a large number of micron-sized pores carrying the nanoscaled catalytic CoP@ZIF-8 on the millimeter-sized skeleton of bare NF, which significantly increases the specific surface area and catalyst load of the material. Thanks to the unique spatial three-level porous structure, electrochemical tests showed a low overpotential of 77 mV at 10 mA cm-2 for HER, and 226 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and 331 mV at 50 mA cm-2 for OER. The result obtained from testing the electrode's overall water splitting performance is also satisfactory, needing only 1.57 V at 10 mA cm-2. Additionally, this electrocatalyst showed great stability for more than 55 h when a 10 mA cm-2 constant current was applied to it. Based on the above characteristics, the present work demonstrates the promising application of this material to the electrolysis of water for the production of hydrogen and oxygen.

Abstract
Finding the active center in a bimetallic zeolite imidazolate framework (ZIF) is highly crucial for the electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In the present study, we constructed a bimetallic ZIF system with cobalt and manganese metal ions and subjected it to an electrospinning technique for feasible fiber formation. The obtained nanofibers delivered a lower overpotential value of 302 mV at a benchmarking current density of 10 mA cm-2 in an electrocatalytic OER study under alkaline conditions. The obtained Tafel slope and charge-transfer resistance values were 125 mV dec-1 and 4 Ω, respectively. The kinetics of the reaction is mainly attributed from the ratio of metals (Co and Mn) present in the catalyst. Jahn-Teller distortion reveals that the electrocatalytic active center on the Mn-incorporated ZIF-67 nanofibers (Mn-ZIF-67-NFs) was found to be Mn3+ along with the Mn2+ and Co2+ ions on the octahedral and tetrahedral sites, respectively, where Co2+ ions tend to suppress the distortion, which is well supported by density functional theory analysis, molecular orbital study, and magnetic studies.

Abstract
In this work, the porous CoS2/N-doped carbon polyhedra (P-CoS2/CP) has been developed by employing ZIF-67 as the template for durable lithium-ion battery anode. The as-prepared P-CoS2/CP exhibits the novel dodecahedron structure filling with nanopores and CoS2nanoparticles. As compared to CoS2/CP (122 m2g-1), the P-CoS2/CP possesses the higher specific surface area of 367 m2g-1, which benefits to enlarge the electrode-electrolyte contact area and promote the Li+diffusion dynamics at high current density. On the other hand, the CoS2nanoparticles are firmly wrapped by the carbon skeleton which can effectively suppresses the volume expansion of CoS2during the charging/discharging process. Besides, the N-doping enable to improve the conductivity of CP. As a result, the initial discharge capacity of P-CoS2/CP at 0.1 A g-1is 1484.7 mAh g-1with the coulombic efficiency of 48.9%. After 100 cycles, the reversible capacity stabilized at 726.2 mAh g-1. Even the current density increases to 2.0 A g-1, a high reversible capacity of 353.7 mAh g-1can still be achieved, realizing the good rate capability. The superior Li+performance of P-CoS2/CP is attributed to the synergistic effect of the unique multi-space structure and the high chemical activity of CoS2. Moreover, the Li+diffusion coefficient of P-CoS2/CP is 4.52 × 10-6 to 1.98 × 10-11cm2s-1, which is higher than that of CoS2/CP (1.45 × 10-9 to 5.23 × 10-11cm2s-1), highlighting the significance of porous engineering.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have garnered multidisciplinary attention due to their structural tailorability, controlled pore size, and physicochemical functions, and their inherent properties can be exploited by applying them as precursors and/or templates for fabricating derived hollow porous nanomaterials. The fascinating, functional properties and applications of MOF-derived hollow porous materials primarily lie in their chemical composition, hollow character, and unique porous structure. Herein, a comprehensive overview of the synthetic strategies and emerging applications of hollow porous materials derived from MOF-based templates and/or precursors is given.

Abstract
Constructing the active interface in a heterojunction electrocatalyst is critical for the electron transfer and intermediate adsorption (O*, OH*, and HOO*) in alkaline oxygen evolution reaction (OER) but still remains challenging. Herein, a CeO2/Co4N heterostructure is rationally synthesized through the direct calcination of Ce[Co(CN)6], followed by thermal nitridation. The in situ electrochemically generated CoOOH on the surface of Co4N serves as the active site for the OER, and the coupled CeO2 with oxygen vacancy can optimize the energy barrier of intermediate reactions of the OER, which simultaneously boosts the OER performance. Besides, electrochemical measurement results demonstrate that oxygen vacancies in CeO2 and optimized absorption free energy originating from the electron transfer between CeO2 and CoOOH contribute to enhanced OER kinetics. This work provides new insight into regulating the interface heterostructure to rationally design efficient OER electrocatalysts under alkaline conditions.

Abstract
Achievement of the intrinsic activity by in situ electrochemical reconstruction has been becoming a great challenge for designing a catalyst. Herein, an effective electrochemical strategy is proposed to reconstruct the surface of the CF-CuO/CeO2 precursor. Under the stimulation of oxidative/reductive potential, abundant active sites were successfully generated on the surface of CF-CuO/CeO2. Remarkably, the implantation of oxygen vacancy-rich CeO2 synergistically optimizes the chemical composition and electronic structure of CF-CuO/CeO2, greatly promoting the generation of active species. Systematic electrochemical experiments indicate that the superior catalytic performance of reconstructed CF-CuO/CeO2 could be attributed to CuOOH/CeO2 and Cu2O/Ce2O3 active species, respectively. The oxidative-/reductive-activated CF-CuO/CeO2 was further employed in a paired cell for the synergistic catalysis of hydroxymethylfurfural oxidation with 4-nitrophenol hydrogenation. As a result, nearly 100% Faraday efficiency for furandicarboxylic acid/4-aminophenol production was achieved in the paired system (-0.9 V vs Ag/AgCl, 1.5 h). Therefore, the electrochemical reconstruction via oxidative/reductive activation has been confirmed as a feasible approach to significantly excite the intrinsic activity of a catalyst.

Abstract
Transition-metal sulfide as a promising bifunctional oxygen electrocatalyst alternative to scarce platinum-group metals has attracted much attention, but it suffers activity loss over time owing to poor structural/compositional stability during catalysis. Herein, we report a self-template method for preparing a two-dimensional cobalt sulfide holey sheet superstructure with hierarchical porosity followed by the encapsulation of thin iron-nitrogen-carbon as a protective layer. The iron-nitrogen-carbon layer to some degree precludes the phase transition of cobalt sulfide underneath and preserves the structural integrity during catalysis, therefore rendering an exceptional durability in terms of no obvious activity loss after 10,000 cycles of the accelerated durability test. It also noticeably enhances the intrinsic activity of cobalt sulfide and does not influence its exposure into the electrolyte, resulting in showing an extraordinary electrochemical performance in terms of a potential difference of 0.69 V for the overall oxygen redox. A rechargeable zinc-air battery assembled by a cobalt sulfide/iron-nitrogen-carbon air cathode delivers approximately 4.2 times higher power density than that without an iron-nitrogen-carbon layer and stably operates for 300 h with a high voltaic efficiency. This work gives a facile and effective strategy for improving the long-term durability of transition-metal sulfide electrocatalysts.

Abstract
The further commercialization of renewable energy conversion and storage technologies requires heterogeneous electrocatalysts that meet the exacting durability target. Studies of the stability and degradation mechanisms of electrocatalysts are expected to provide important breakthroughs in stability issues. Accessible in situ/operando techniques performed under realistic reaction conditions are therefore urgently needed to reveal the nature of active center structures and establish links between the structural motifs in a catalyst and its stability properties. This review highlights recent research advances regarding in situ/operando techniques and improves the understanding of the stabilities of advanced heterogeneous electrocatalysts used in a diverse range of electrochemical reactions; it also proposes some degradation mechanisms. The review concludes by offering suggestions for future research.

Abstract
Modulating the local electronic state of metal compounds through interfacial interaction has become a key method for manufacturing high-performance hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts. The electron-rich active sites can promote the adsorption of hydrogen, which accelerates the Volmer step and thereby enhances the electrocatalytic performance of HER. Here, we found that the strong interfacial interaction between TiO nanodots (TiO/Co-S) and Co-S nanosheets could advantageously improve the performance toward HER of electrocatalyst. Meanwhile, XPS results showed that modulating the local electronic structure of the TiO nanodots produces electron-rich regions on Co. As a result, the overpotential of the TiO/Co-S nanocomposite at 10 mA cm-2 was 107 mV, and the Tafel slope was 83.3 mV dec-1 . This study focused on the effect of the solid-solid interface on the local electronic structure of the catalytic metal active sites and successfully improved the catalytic activity of transition metal materials in HER catalysis.

Abstract
Cobalt disulfide (CoS2 ) has been explored as attractive electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, bulk CoS2 sheets have limited catalytic activity due to low exposure of active sites. Herein, through an in-situ vulcanization approach, CoS2 nanoparticles are embedded into bipyridine-containing covalent organic polymer (BP-COP). The as-prepared nanocomposite CoS2 @BP-COP exhibits high catalytic activity toward OER with an ultra-low overpotential of 270 mV (vs. RHE) at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 , a small Tafel slope of 36 mV dec-1 , and an excellent durability for 24 h without decay. The surface of CoS2 is partially converted into CoOOH to form CoS2 /CoOOH as active sites under OER conditions. CoS2 @BP-COP displays superior OER catalytic activity to CoS2 nanosheets and commercially available RuO2 under the same conditions. The outstanding OER performance activity of CoS2 @BP-COP could be attributed to the uniform and small particle sizes of CoS2 /CoOOH distributed in BP-COP.

Abstract
Developing efficient and low-cost replacements for noble metals as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) remain a great challenge. Herein, we report a needle-like cobalt carbonate hydroxide hydrate (Co(CO3)0.5OH·0.11H2O) nanoarrays, which in situ grown on the surface of carbon cloth through a facile one-step hydrothermal method. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) characterizations demonstrate that the Co(CO3)0.5OH nanoarrays with high porosity is composed of numerous one-dimensional (1D) nanoneedles. Owing to unique needle-like array structure and abundant exposed active sites, the Co(CO3)0.5OH@CC only requires 317 mV of overpotential to reach a current density of 10 mA cm−2, which is much lower than those of Co(OH)2@CC (378 mV), CoCO3@CC (465 mV) and RuO2@CC (380 mV). For the stability, there is no significant attenuation of current density after continuous operation 27 h. This work paves a facile way to the design and construction of electrocatalysts for the OER.

Abstract
Transition metal phosphides (TMP)-based oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts constructed by interface engineering strategy have a broad prospect due to their low cost and good performance. Herein, a novel CeO2/NiCoP nanoarray with intimate phosphide (NiCoP)-oxide (CeO2) interface was developed via in situ generation on nickel foam (NF). This structure is conducive to increasing active sites and accelerating charge transfer, and may be conducive to regulating electronic structure and adsorption energy. As expected, optimal 1.4-CeO2/NiCoP/NF delivers a low overpotential of 249 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm-2 with a Tafel slope of 77.2 mV dec-1. CeO2/NiCoP/NF boasts one of the best OER catalytic materials among recently reported phosphides (TMP)-based OER catalysts and composite catalysts involving CeO2. This work provides an effective strategy for the construction of hetero-structure with CeO2 with oxygen vacancies to improve the OER performance of phosphides.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) derivatives are among the most promising catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) for clean hydrogen energy production. Herein, we report the in situ synthesized MOF-derived CoPO hollow polyhedron nanostructures by simultaneous high temperature annealing and Ar-N2 radio frequency plasma treatment in the presence of a P precursor and subsequent oxygen incorporation from open air at lower temperature. The optimum Ar-N2 gas flow rates are used to precisely tune the P/O ratio, cut Co bonds within the MOFs and reconnect Co with P. Consequently, both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance are enhanced. Meanwhile, the filling of P elements can effectively change the electronic structure around the catalyst to ensure the uniform distribution of catalytically active sites. The resultant CoPO hollow nanocages with large specific surface areas show excellent bifunctional electrocatalytic activity towards both HER and OER with a low overpotential of 105 and 275 mV and a small Tafel slope of 48 and 52 mV dec-1, respectively. Our results open a new avenue for precise plasma-assisted engineering of MOF-derived hybrid hetero-structured electrocatalysts with rich oxygen vacancies and P dopants to simultaneously boost both half reactions in water electrolysis.

Abstract
The novel hollowed Ni-Co layered double hydroxide polyhedron (H-(Ni, Co)-LDHP) is synthesized via a template-sacrificing approach using ZIF-67 as template. The morphology, crystallinity, porous texture, and chemical state of H-(Ni, Co)-LDHP are examined. It demonstrates that the H-(Ni, Co)-LDHP not only provides rich redox sites but also promotes the kinetics due to presence of numerous rational channels. As a result, the H-(Ni, Co)-LDHP manifests the desirable lithium ions storage performance when employed as anode. This study paves a new way for preparing hollowed nanostructure toward advanced electrochemical applications.

Abstract
The ability to manipulate heterostructures is of great importance to achieve high-performance electrocatalysts for direct water-splitting devices with excellent activity toward hydrogen production. Herein, a novel top-down strategy involving the in situ transformation of one-dimensional MoO3 nanorod arrays grafted with two-dimensional NiS nanosheets supported on a three-dimensional nickel foam skeleton is proposed. Namely, a heterostructured electrocatalyst on the Ni foam skeleton containing MoO3 nanorod arrays decorated with NiS nanosheets is synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method followed by one-step sulfidation treatment. Experimental analysis confirmed that this novel composite has the merits of a large quantity of accessible active sites, unique distribution of three different spatial dimensions, accelerated mass/electron transfer, and the synergistic effect of its components, resulting in impressive electrocatalytic properties toward the hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction. Furthermore, an advanced water-splitting electrolyzer was assembled with NiS/MoO3/NF as both the anodic and cathodic working electrode. This device requires a low cell voltage of 1.56 V to afford a water-splitting current density of 10 mA·cm-2 in basic electrolyte, outperforming previously reported electrocatalysts and even state-of-the-art electrocatalysts. More significantly, this work provides a way to revolutionize the design of heterostructured electrocatalysts for the large-scale commercial production of hydrogen using direct water-splitting devices.

Abstract
A rational design is reported of Fe-doped cobalt telluride nanoparticles encapsulated in nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube frameworks (Fe-Co1.11 Te2 @NCNTF) by tellurization of Fe-etched ZIF-67 under a mixed H2 /Ar atmosphere. Fe-doping was able to effectively modulate the electronic structure of Co1.11 Te2 , increase the reaction activity, and further improve the electrochemical performance. The optimized electrocatalyst exhibited superior hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performances in an alkaline electrolyte with low overpotentials of 107 and 297 mV with a current density of 10 mA cm-2 , in contrast to the undoped Co1.11 Te2 @NCNTF (165 and 360 mV, respectively). The overall water splitting performance only required a voltage of 1.61 V to drive a current density of 10 mA cm-2 . Density function theory (DFT) calculations indicated that the Fe-doping not only afforded abundant exposed active sites but also decreased the hydrogen binding free energy. This work provided a feasible way to study non-precious-metal catalysts for an efficient overall water splitting.

Abstract
It remains a challenge to rational design of a new metal-organic framework (MOF) as highly efficient direct electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, we developed a simple and effective method to explore a new pillared-layered MOF with syringic acid as a promising OER electrocatalyst. The isostructural mono-, heterobimetallic MOF and N,S co-doped MOF by mixing thiourea were quickly synthesized in a high yield under solvothermal condition. Moreover, the optimized N,S co-doped MOF exhibits the lowest overpotential of 254 mV at 10 mA cm-2 on a glass carbon electrode and a small Tafel slope of 50 mV dec-1 , especially, this catalyst also possesses long-term electrochemical durability for at least 16 h. According to the characterization, the incorporation of N and S atoms into this heterobimetallic CoFe-based MOF could modify its pore structure, tune the electronic structure, accordingly, improve the mass and electron transportation, and facilitate the formation of active species, as a consequence, the improved activity of this new N,S co-doped MOF for OER should be mainly be ascribed to higher electrochemical activation toward the active species via in situ surface modification during the OER process.

Abstract
A novel 3D N- & S-co-doped carbon nanofiber network embedded with ultrafine NiCo oxide nanoparticles is explored by a facile surfactant-assisted electrospinning method. This catalyst has several structural advantages including ultrafine active sites (2-8 nm), hierarchical pores, and abundant defects, allowing for much higher OER/ORR activity compared to commercial IrO2 and Pt/C catalysts. The potential gap (ΔE) of OER and ORR metrics for NSCFs/Ni-Co-NiCo2O is 0.69 V and the Zn-air battery equipped with NSCFs/Ni-Co-NiCo2O as the air cathode delivers a maximum power density of 171.24 mW cm-2 at 268 mA cm-2. Furthermore, the unique structure of the 3D carbon nanofiber network embedded with ultrafine nanoparticles results in superior stability with negligible degradation in activity after 380 h of continuous operation.

Abstract
The improvement of activity of electrocatalysts lies in the increment of the density of active sites or the enhancement of intrinsic activity of each active site. A common strategy to realize dual active sites is the use of bimetal compound catalysts, where each metal atom contributes one active site. In this work, a new concept is presented to realize dual active sites with tunable electron densities in monometal compound catalysts. Dual Co2+ tetrahedral (Co2+ (Td )) and Co3+ octahedral (Co3+ (Oh )) coordination active sites are developed and adjustable electron densities on the Co2+ (Td ) and Co3+ (Oh ) are further achieved by phosphorus incorporation (P-Co9 S8 ). The experimental results and density functional theory calculations show that the nonmetal P doping can systematically modulate charge density of Co2+ (Td ) and Co3+ (Oh ) in P-Co9 S8 and simultaneously improve the electrical conductivity of Co9 S8 , which substantially enhances oxygen evolution reaction performance of P-Co9 S8 .

Abstract
In order to accelerate the reaction rate of water splitting, it is of immense importance to develop low-cost, stable and efficient catalysts. In this study, the facile synthesis of a novel rose-like nanocomposite catalyst (Ni2 P/Fe2 P/Fe3 O4 ) is reported. The synthesis process includes a solvothermal step and a phosphatization step to combine iron oxides and iron-nickel phosphides. Ni2 P/Fe2 P/Fe3 O4 performs well in catalyzing oxygen evolution reaction, with a very low overpotential of 365 mV to reach 10 mA cm-2 current density. The Tafel slope is as low as 59 mV dec-1 . Ni2 P/Fe2 P/Fe3 O4 has a large double-layer capacitance that contributes to a high electrochemically active area. Moreover, this catalyst is very stable for long-term use. Therefore, the Ni2 P/Fe2 P/Fe3 O4 catalyst has a high potential for use in oxygen evolution reactions.

Abstract
The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline media is key for the cathodic reaction of electrochemical water splitting, but it suffers sluggish kinetics due to the slow water dissociation process. Here, we present a simple strategy to enhance the HER activity in alkaline media by engineering Co-doped MoS2 coupled with Mo2CTx MXene. The improved HER activity might be ascribed to the synergistic regulation of water dissociation sites and electronic conductivity. Co doping could effectively regulate the electronic structure of MoS2 and further improve the intrinsic activity of the catalyst. Mo2CTx MXene served as both the active and conductive substrate to facilitate electron transfer. As a result, the Co-MoS2/Mo2CTx nanohybrids showed dramatically enhanced HER performance with a low overpotential of 112 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 and exhibited excellent long-term stability in alkaline media.

Abstract
The rational design and development of the low-cost and effective electrocatalysts toward oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are essential in the storage and conversion of clean and renewable energy sources. Herein, a ternary copper-cobalt sulfide nanosheets electrocatalysts (denoted as CuCoS/CC) for electrochemical water oxidation has been synthesized on carbon cloth (CC) via the sulfuration of CuCo-based precursors. The obtained CuCoS/CC reveals excellent electrocatalytic performance toward OER in 1.0 M KOH. It exhibits a particularly low overpotential of 276 mV at current density of 10 mA cm−2, and a small Tafel slope (58 mV decade−1), which is superior to the current commercialized noble-metal electrocatalysts, such as IrO2. Benefiting from the synergistic effect of Cu and Co atoms and sulfidation, electrons transport and ions diffusion are significantly enhanced with the increase of active sites, thus the kinetic process of OER reaction is boosted. Our studies will serve as guidelines in the innovative design of non-noble metal electrocatalysts and their application in electrochemical water splitting
