Excellent electrochemical water splitting with remarkable durability can provide a solution to satisfy the increasing global energy demand in which the electrode materials play an important role.
Rationally designing low-content and high-efficiency noble metal nanodots offers opportunities to enhance electrocatalytic performances for water splitting. However, the preparation of highly dispersed nanodots electrocatalysts remains a challenge. Herein, we...
The mechanistically distinct and synergistic role of phosphite anions in hydrogen evolution and nickel cations in oxygen evolution have been uncovered for active and durable overall water splitting catalysis in nickel phosphite.
While doping is crucial for numerous technological applications, its control remains difficult especially when the material is reduced down to the nanometric scale. We suggest a new way to dope nanoparticles using laser ablation in liquids.
