Ru₂P/Ir₂P Heterostructure Promotes Hydrogen Spillover for Efficient Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (Adv. Energy Mater. 29/2024)

Hydrogen Evolution Reaction In article number 2401426, Sung Jong Yoo, Sang Uck Lee, Kwangyeol Lee, and co-workers utilized density functional theory calculations to identify promising combinations of Ir2P and Ru2P materials that facilitate rapid cascade water dissociation and hydrogen production through kinetically favorable hydrogen spillover from the Ru2P surface to the adjacent Ir2P. A novel construction of Ir2P cluster-decorated Ru2P hollow nanotubes, where the clusters are epitaxially anchored to nanotube, exhibit cooperative heterostructural synergy.
