Abstract

Abstract Designing and constructing bifunctional electrocatalysts is vital for water splitting. Particularly, the rational interface engineering can effectively modify the active sites and promote the electronic transfer, leading to the improved splitting efficiency. Herein, free‐standing and defect‐rich heterogeneous MoS 2 /NiS 2 nanosheets for overall water splitting are designed. The abundant heterogeneous interfaces in MoS 2 /NiS 2 can not only provide rich electroactive sites but also facilitate the electron transfer, which further cooperate synergistically toward electrocatalytic reactions. Consequently, the optimal MoS 2 /NiS 2 nanosheets show the enhanced electrocatalytic performances as bifunctional…
