Heteroatom doping engineering has emerged as an intriguing strategy to enhance electrocatalytic efficiency. Herein, a multiple transition metal doping approach is developed through the incorporation of both Co and Nb into hierarchical MoS2 ultrathin nanosheets directly grown on micro-TiO2 hollow spheres (Co,Nb-MoS2/TiO2 HSs) to boost the hydrogen evolution (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The Co and Nb dual-doping effects modify the electronic structure of the host MoS2 towards maximizing the HER, OER, and ORR performance. Additionally, the unique hollow spherical structure and heterostructured synergistic effects between the TiO2 core and MoS2 shell provide effective channels for electron transfer and large surface area with abundant exposed void spaces for ion diffusion/penetration. Therefore, the Co,Nb-MoS2/TiO2 HSs catalyst demonstrates extraordinary activity and stability with small overpotentials of 58.8 and 260.0 mV at 10 mA cm−2 for the HER and OER, respectively. When employed as both cathodic and anodic electrode in an electrolyzer, the catalyst requires an operating voltage of 1.57 V to achieve 10 mA cm−2. The catalyst also exhibits great potential for the ORR with high onset potential of + 0.96 V and half-wave potential of +0.87 V, as well as direct four-electron transfer process.

Co和Nb双重掺杂的MoS 2纳米片层状结构包裹了微TiO 2空心球,作为HER,OER和ORR的有效多功能电催化剂

杂原子掺杂工程已经成为提高电催化效率的一种引人入胜的策略。本文中,通过将Co和Nb掺入直接在微型TiO 2中空球体(Co,Nb-MoS 2 / TiO 2 HSs)上生长的分层MoS 2超薄纳米片中以促进氢释放而开发了多种过渡金属掺杂方法。(HER),析氧反应(OER)和氧还原反应(ORR)。Co和Nb双重掺杂效应会修改主机MoS 2的电子结构,从而使HER,OER和ORR性能最大化。此外,TiO 2之间独特的空心球形结构和异质结构的协同效应核和MoS 2壳为电子转移和大表面积提供了有效的通道,并具有大量暴露的空隙,用于离子扩散/渗透。因此,Co,Nb-MoS 2 / TiO 2 HSs催化剂显示出非凡的活性和稳定性,在10 mA cm -2时的过电位分别为58.8和260.0 mV,对于HER和OER而言。当在电解器中既用作阴极电极又用作阳极电极时,催化剂需要1.57 V的工作电压才能达到10 mA cm -2。该催化剂还显示出ORR的巨大潜力,其高起始电位为+ 0.96 V,半波电位为+0.87 V,以及直接四电子转移过程。
