Strength in Synergy: MoS 2 ‐VS 4 Nano‐Architecture Modified with Reduced Graphene Oxide as a Robust Electrocatalyst for Overall Water Splitting
Indian Institute of Technology Dhanbad
Abstract
ABSTRACT The green hydrogen production via electrochemical water splitting serves as an effective route to mitigate the looming energy and environmental crisis toward the development of green and sustainable future. However, the process requires a robust, cost‐effective and earth‐abundant bifunctional electrocatalyst. Herein, we have rationally designed a 2D layered transition metal dichalcogenide‐based heterostructure of MoS 2 ‐VS 4 modified with reduced‐graphene oxide (r‐GO) via chemical process. The electrocatalyst achieved an electrochemical performance of a low overpotential of 104 mV (hydrogen evolution reaction) and 236 mV (oxygen evolution reaction) at a current density of 10 mA /cm 2 in acidic and…
