Identification of active edge sites for electrochemical H2 evolution from MoS2 nanocatalysts.

TL;DR: The active site for hydrogen evolution, a reaction catalyzed by precious metals, on nanoparticulate molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is determined by atomically resolving the surface of this catalyst before measuring electrochemical activity in solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomimetic Hydrogen Evolution: MoS2 Nanoparticles as Catalyst for Hydrogen Evolution

TL;DR: The ability of different metal surfaces and of the enzymes nitrogenase and hydrogenase to catalyze the hydrogen evolution reaction is analyzed and a necessary criterion for high catalytic activity is found: that the binding free energy of atomic hydrogen to the catalyst is close to zero.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure Sensitivity of the Methanation Reaction: H2 induced CO dissociation on nickel surfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combined extensive density functional theory calculations, ultra-high vacuum experiments on well-defined single crystals, and catalytic activity measurements on supported catalysts in a study of the dissociation mechanism of CO on Ni surfaces.
