TL;DR: It is shown that HER-active a-MoSx, prepared either as nanoparticles or as films, is a molecular-based coordination polymer consisting of discrete [Mo3S13](2-) building blocks that provides a basis for revisiting the mechanism of a- MoSx catalytic activity, as well as explaining some of its special properties such as reductive activation and corrosion.

TL;DR: In this article, a new inorganic solid state electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was reported, which is a highly crystalline layered ternary sulfide copper-molybdenum-sulfide (Cu2MoS4) catalyst.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that ternary sulfides of cobalt-tungsten and nickel tungsten (MWSx where M is Co or Ni) are efficient and robust electrocatalysts for the water oxidation reaction (WOR) and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in water over a wide pH range.

TL;DR: A significant improvement of the photoelectrochemical properties of hematite (α-Fe2O3) to oxidize water by doping with manganese is reported, with an increase in the photocurrent density and thus in the oxygen evolving capacity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on TiO2 thin films with superior photocatalytic efficiency due to an increase in its exciton carrier generation induced by the plasmonic field of the underlying silver nanoparticles.
