Abstract

Abstract Electrochemical water splitting is recognized as a practical strategy for impelling the transformation of sustainable energy sources such as solar energy from electricity to clean hydrogen fuel. To actualize the large‐scale hydrogen production, it is paramount to develop low‐cost, earth‐abundant, efficient, and stable electrocatalysts. Among those electrocatalysts, alternative architectural arrays grown on conductive substrates have been proven to be highly efficient toward water splitting due to large surface area, abundant active sites, and synergistic effects between the electrocatalysts and the substrates. Herein, the advancement of nanoarray architectures in electrocatalytic applications is…
