主 题:MXene Carbon nitride Graphene Electrocatalysts Hydrogen evolution
摘 要:The technique of electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) represents a development trend of clean energy generation and conversion,while the electrode catalysts are bound to be the core unit in the electrochemical HER ***,we demonstrate a bottom-up approach to the construction of three-dimensional (3D) interconnected ternary nanoarchitecture originated from Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)MXene,graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets and graphene (MX/CN/RGO) through a convenient co-assembly *** virtue of the 3D porous frameworks with ultrathin walls,large specific surface areas,optimized electronic structures,high electric conductivity,the resulting MX/CN/RGO nanoarchitecture expresses an exceptional HER performance with a low onset potential of only 38 m V,a small Tafel slop of 76 m V dec^(-1) as well as long lifespan,all of which are more competitive than those of the bare Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x),g-C_(3)N_(4),graphene as well as binary MX/RGO and CN/RGO *** simulations further verify that the ternary MX/CN/RGO nanoarchitecture with ameliorative band structure is able to facilitate the electron transport and meanwhile offer multistage catalytically active sites,thereby guaranteeing rapid HER kinetics during the electrocatalytic process.
