AbstractRational design of single atom catalyst is critical for efficient sustainable energy conversion. However, the atomic-level control of active sites is essential for electrocatalytic materials in alkaline electrolyte. Moreover, well-defined surface structures lead to in-depth understanding of catalytic mechanisms. Herein, we report a single-atomic-site ruthenium stabilized on defective nickel-iron layered double hydroxide nanosheets (Ru1/D-NiFe LDH). Under precise regulation of local coordination environments of catalytically active sites and the existence of the defects, Ru1/D-NiFe LDH delivers an ultralow overpotential of 18 mV at 10 mA cm−2 for hydrogen evolution reaction, surpassing the commercial Pt/C catalyst. Density functional theory calculations reveal that Ru1/D-NiFe LDH optimizes the adsorption energies of intermediates for hydrogen evolution reaction and promotes the O–O coupling at a Ru–O active site for oxygen evolution reaction. The Ru1/D-NiFe LDH as an ideal model reveals superior water splitting performance with potential for the development of promising water-alkali electrocatalysts.

AbstractLayered double hydroxides (LDHs) are known as ‘anionic clays’. They comprise a class of material with positively charged octahedral double hydroxyl layers and exchangeable anions. The Li/Al LDH term includes a group of LDHs with Li/Al octahedral double hydroxyl layers. We have demonstrated a modifed method, using Li/Al LDH-OH (OH− as interlayer anions) as the starting material, for preparing Li/Al LDH-X (X represents interlayer anions, including dioctyl sulphosuccinate (DOSS), dodecyl sulphate (DDS), mercaptoacetate (MA), EDTA, Tiron and dichromate) under mild acid conditions (pH in the range 4 to 5). However, in the case of acidsensitive anions, Fe(CN)64−, Li/Al LDH-Fe(CN)64− can be prepared by a two-step procedure using Li/Al LDH-DOSS or similar compounds as intermediates to react with acid-sensitive anions under mild alkaline conditions (pH ≈ 9).
